The Business Case for Circular Economy: A Co‐Evolutionary Perspective for Integrating Moral Cases Into Circular Economy Business Cases

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ongoing debate in corporate sustainability (CS) about the moral case versus the business case has recently made its way into the circular economy (CE) discourse, bringing with it new tradeoffs. Although the business case perspective emphasizes profitability, critics argue that the moral case must go beyond profit motives and include ...

Selective Modification of the Product Profile of Biocatalytic Hydrolyzed PET via Product‐Specific Medium Engineering

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The product profile of enzymatically hydrolyzed PET can be modified by medium engineering and thereby adapted to a desired product. TPA, MHET or BHET can be forced as the predominant product using a basic pH (blue), 25 % ethylene glycol (EG) and IsPETasewt (green) or ≥25 % EG and LCCICCG (pink), respectively.

Highly Isoselective Polymerization of rac‐Lactide by Zinc Complexes of Sequential Tetradentate {ONNN} Ligands

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
Zinc complexes of a new family of sequential {ONNN} ligands are introduced and employed for the ring‐opening polymerization of rac‐lactide. The pyridine‐amine‐imine‐phenolate complexes lead to a rare combination of very high activities and isoselectivities yielding stereomultiblock poly(lactic acid) while their isomers are less active and essentially ...

The microbiome science of composting and human excrement composting: a review [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Linear waste management systems are unsustainable and contribute to environmental degradation, economic inequity, and health disparities. Among the array of environmental challenges stemming from anthropogenic impacts, the management of human excrement (human feces and urine) stands as a significant concern.
