A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.
Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination systems.

Toward Carbon Accounting and Circular Harmony in Shipping Corporations: A Systematic Bibliometric Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 4961-4984, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines how carbon accounting can be used to govern, not merely report, circular economy principles in shipping corporations. Grounded in institutional theory and aligned with the UN 2030 Agenda, this study introduces circular harmony as an accounting design principle: Circular interventions are embedded in a single well‐to‐wake ...
