‘CLOSING THE CARBON LOOP’: Climate Policy Discourses and the Material Politics of Municipal Waste‐to‐Biofuel Programs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Waste‐to‐biofuel (WTB) programs have gained popularity as a municipal circular economy and an emissions reduction strategy. The upgrading of biofuels to renewable natural gas (RNG) has drawn particular interest, as RNG can displace conventional fossil fuels in any existing natural gas end use and be delivered through existing pipeline ...

Groups with two real Brauer characters

open access: yesJournal of Algebra, 2007
The structure of a finite group with exactly two conjugacy classes of real elements was described by \textit{S. Iwasaki} [in Arch. Math. 33, 512-517 (1980; Zbl 0433.20014)]. In particular, such groups have a normal Sylow \(2\)-subgroup. In the present paper, the authors study the structure of finite groups with exactly two real valued irreducible ...
