Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.The study quantifies environmental impacts of 1 L of ultra‐high‐temperature milk bottles, comparing a 50% recycled opaque PET (rPET) bottle with 100% virgin PET bottles under closed‐loop and non‐closed‐loop recycling scenarios. Results show that 50% opaque rPET bottles outperform 100% virgin PET bottles across all impact categories, enabled by an ...

Social, Technological, Economic, and Policy Factors in the Circular Economy Transition in Brazil
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A well‐functioning circular economy (CE) integrates resilience across economic, environmental, and social dimensions. This study identifies key drivers and barriers to Brazil's CE transition through 20 semi‐structured interviews with stakeholders. Major sociocultural barriers include inadequate education and limited CE awareness, while growing

steel research international, EarlyView.The experiments and simulations demonstrate that, in general, alternative carbon sources can decrease fossil CO2 without adversely impacting EAF process and product. High plastics and tires ratios cause unsafe conditions and poor slag foaming. Hydrogen in EAF burners decreases CO2 but increases water vapor, which can raise the hydrogen content in ...

International 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 ...
