THE POTENTIAL USE OF POLLUTION INSURANCE AS ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS [PDF]

Market-based environmental policies have been forwarded as alternatives to current pollution control policies. Implementation of the "polluter pays" principle and governmental enforcement of pollution clean-up have led to astronomical environmental ...

Environmental Pollution

, 2013
There exist various definitions to the word pollution depending on one’s jurisdiction and the laws of a particular country. Springer (1977, see references therein) looks at the meaningful concept of defining pollution in international law by posing the questions: “What are you talking about when you are talking about pollution? What is pollution?

Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron

Species dependent accumulation and transformation of 8:2 polyfluoroalkyl phosphate esters in sediment by three benthic organisms

Environment International, 2019
Sediment is a major sink for 8:2 polyfluoroalkyl phosphate diester (8:2 diPAP) in the environment. In the present study, three representative benthic organisms, including carp (Cyrinus carpio), loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) and worm (Limnodrilus ...

Polaronic and Electrochemical Signatures in Group IVB (Ti, Zr, Hf) Oxides: Unified SKP–DFT Insights for Tunable Transport in Energy and Electronic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Charge carrier concentration and mobility in TiO2, ZrO2, and HfO2 powder films are experimentally mapped as a function of temperature. The results uncover polaron‐mediated transport regimes and field‐activated conduction, enabling the design of oxide‐based electronic and energy devices with thermally tunable functionality.
