Application of Circular Economy Principles to Power Generation: Extending the Life of A Hydropower Plant by Pumped Hydro Energy Storage

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The application of circular economy, which aims to maximize efficiency and reduce waste, to renewable energy sources necessitates, given the intermittent nature of the latter, robust energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and avoid wasting energy.

Towards Responsible Mining in Africa: Problematising the Environmental and Public Health Concerns of Artisanal and Small‐Scale Gold Mining in Ghana

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There have been emerging media reports on the impact of cyanide and mercury use in artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) operations on community health, especially among pregnant and non‐pregnant women, ASGM miners, and children in rural Africa.

Peptide Fingerprinting of Single Protein Molecules Using In‐Plane Nanopore Sensors Integrated to an Extended Immobilized Nanoscale Enzymatic Reactor (eINER)

Small Methods, EarlyView.
The protein Time‐of‐Flight (P‐ToF) chip can peptide fingerprint a single protein molecule by subjecting it to a solid phase endopeptidase cleavage reaction in‐line with a combination of resistive pulse sensing of the resulting single peptides and machine‐learning aided identification.

Foamed Concrete Sealing Materials for Coal Seam Gas Drainage Boreholes: A Review

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the sealing performance of foamed concrete in gas drainage boreholes. By comparing leakage pathways (a, c) with sealed systems (b, d), the research demonstrates how foamed concrete effectively fills mining‐induced fractures and resists deformation.

Impacts of Introducing Automation in Mining Operations: Insights From Worker Perceptions

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This study shows that trust is the strongest predictor of mining workers' situation awareness when using automated systems. Communication and coordination also improve situation awareness through trust, highlighting the need for human‐centered system design and training that support calibrated trust and effective teamwork in safety‐critical operations.
