Policy and Market Mechanisms for Sustainable Finance: A Systematic Review and Research Agenda

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable finance has emerged as a critical instrument for addressing the dual challenges of climate change and sustainable development. Nonetheless, a substantial financing gap persists, while the concept remains under‐theorized without a universally accepted definition, and empirical evidence of its effectiveness remains inconsistent and ...

Interface‐Engineered Li–Ni–O/Ni Heterostructures With Tunable Vacancies on Biochar Enable Biomass‐to‐Hydrogen Conversion

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This study shows that lithium induces Li–Ni–O/Ni heterostructures on biochar, creating oxygen vacancies and optimal acid–base environments that enhance steam activation and suppress carbon deposition. These interfacial effects and synergistic modulation lead to high hydrogen yields at moderate temperatures, providing a scalable catalyst design strategy

Recent Progress of Biomass‐Derived Nitrogen‐Doped Carbon Materials as Electrocatalysts: Carbonization, Functionalization, and Applications

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Integrating renewable energy with electrochemical conversion and storage is crucial for sustainable energy solutions. Nitrogen‐doped biomass‐derived carbon materials have emerged as effective catalysts for key reactions such as ORR, HER, and CO2RR. This review explores their synthesis, functionalization, characterization, and catalytic applications ...

Electrochemical Fluorination of Partially Fluorinated Dialkylethers. Synthesis of Sevoflurane Derivatives (CF3)2CHOCHF2, (CF3)2CHOCF3, and (CF3)2CFOCF3

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Electrochemical fluorination (ECF, Simons process) is a valuable method for the fluorination of partially fluorinated dialkyl ethers, providing an inexpensive, scalable, and safe access to partially fluorinated ethers with a higher fluorine content and the perfluorinated analogues that are hardly accessible using other fluorination techniques ...

Environmental Management Control Systems and Environmental and Economic Performance: Do Country Characteristics Matter?

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using an integrated framework that combines the natural resource‐based view with contingency theory, this study examines how environmental management control systems (EMCS) build multinational firms' environmental capabilities and balance their environmental and economic performance while accounting for cross‐country contextual conditions.

Engineering CEOs, Sustainability Performance, and Greenwashing: Evidence From Australian Listed Firms

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how engineering trained chief executive officers (CEOs) determine firms' sustainability performance and greenwashing behavior in Australian listed firms from 2016 to 2024. Drawing on Upper Echelons theory and Imprint theory, we argue that engineering cognition influences environmental strategy by providing conservative ...
