Framing Modern Slavery: Do Stakeholders Talk Past Each Other?
Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Modern slavery literature has thus far mostly adopted a downstream perspective, in the sense that researchers investigated corporate actors' responses after the enactment of transparency legislation. The common finding is that corporate disclosure is poor and ineffective, contributing to a failure to eradicate modern slavery.

Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...

Green Synthesis of SnO2/Carbon Composite Anode for Low‐Temperature Lithium‐Ion Batteries
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.A green synthesis strategy is used to fabricate SnO2 nanoparticles with banana peel extract and convert the leftover biomass into carbon for composite anode materials. The resulting SnO2/hard carbon (7:3) exhibits high‐reversible capacity and excellent cycling stability at subzero temperatures, offering a scalable, eco‐friendly solution for next ...
