Additives Enhancing Biodegradability in Plastics and Potential Implications for Textiles: A Mechanistic Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...

Revisiting the Carbon Footprint of Single‐Use Technologies in Biomanufacturing: A Bottom‐Up Analysis Reveals a Paradigm Shift

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The biopharmaceutical industry increasingly relies on single‐use technologies (SUT) for operational flexibility. For a long time, SUT was considered more sustainable than stainless‐steel (SST) systems due to water and energy savings. This study re‐evaluates this paradigm via a detailed bottom‐up analysis of the SUT carbon footprint at the 2000

Government Subsidies for Industrial Symbiosis: Is It Always Worth It? Assessing Effectiveness and Efficiency Through Agent‐Based Modeling

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy intervention can be a driver for industrial symbiosis (IS). However, given the wide variety of policy instruments available, policymakers should be guided in the policy design process to ensure that their intervention is effective and efficient. In this paper, we propose an agent‐based (AB) model intended to assess the effectiveness and

Integrating Products, Processes, and Sourcing for Eco‐Innovation

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐innovation research has often examined regulatory or technological drivers but has paid limited attention to how long‐term organizational change shapes eco‐innovation in mature, resource‐intensive industries. This study addresses that gap by investigating how two leading Finnish pulp and paper firms integrated product, process, and ...
