A Method for Assessing the Risks to Sustainability Posed by Process Operations

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a framework for assessing the risks to sustainability posed by any given set of processes. The objective is to improve sustainability by enabling better decision‐making in policy and business contexts. The framework can be applied to any system of processes where available information supports discovery and quantification of ...

Enhanced Electrocatalytic and Cathode‐Electrolyte Interfacial Properties With a Pr‐Based Simple Perovskite/Ruddlesden‐Popper Nanocomposite Cathode in Protonic Ceramic Fuel Cells

Small, EarlyView.
A novel Pr‐based nanocomposite cathode consisting of PrNi0.7Co0.3O3‐δ (simple perovskite) and Pr4Ni3O10+δ (Ruddlesden‐Popper) demonstrates enhanced oxygen absorption/surface diffusion and oxygen reduction reaction activity than pure PrNi0.7Co0.3O3‐δ. Combined with the precursor‐based cathode layer deposition technique, the nanocomposite cathode also ...

Selective Semi‐Hydrogenation of Acetylene using a Single‐Atom Cobalt on Carbon Nitride Photocatalyst with Water as a Proton Source

Small Methods, EarlyView.
A sustainable alternative to the energy‐intensive traditional thermocatalytic hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene is reported. The catalyst is a cobalt single‐atom catalyst supported on carbon nitride that is powered by visible light, uses water as a proton source and demonstrates high selectivity, stability, and recyclability.

Innovation in the Spaces In‐Between: Creating the Nexus Between Human and Non‐Human Actors in Systemic Innovations

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT By combining theories of system thinking with a post‐humanist approach, we established a nexus between human and non‐human systems in the examination of systemic innovation. By doing so, we shed light on the interdependencies that exist between human and non‐human systems and contribute theoretically as well as methodologically to theories on ...

Systemic Governance From Below: Story Telling to Empower Access to the Commons Through Mapping and Modelling: A Mixed Methods Approach

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Access to forests, farming land and the Citarum river is limited in Tarumajaya; furthermore, many do not own their own housing and are dependent on the public and private landowners in the area. The region of Tarumajaya faces significant challenges in access to crucial resources such as forests, farming land and the Citarum river, leading to a

Effects of Pyrolysis Control Parameters on the Structural Properties of Biomass‐Derived Activated Carbon Materials and Their Energy Applications

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Tubular pyrolysis synthesis is a widespread method to produce activated carbons (ACs). This review focuses on the different controlling parameters of the tubular pyrolysis synthesis method and their influence on the performance of synthesized ACs, thereby considering both experimental aspects and the use of plant‐based biomasses (PBBs) as feedstock ...
