Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Recycling End‐of‐Life Solid Oxide Cell Interconnect Assemblies into Commercial‐Grade AISI 304 Stainless Steels

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study validates a recycling pathway for converting interconnect assemblies from end‐of‐life SOC stacks into commercial‐grade AISI 304 steels. Using scrap‐based steelmaking operations, austenitic cast steels with <4.0% δ‐ferrite are successfully produced.

Potential for Reducing Emissions by Regulating O2, CO, and H2O in the Recirculation Gas in Iron Ore Sintering

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study investigates the potential for reducing emissions during the sintering process by selectively adjusting the O2, CO, and H2O content in the recirculation gas. Adjusting these components positively affects the sintering process, enabling the coke breeze content in the sinter mixture to be reduced.

Development and Validation of a Next‐Generation Mechanistic Model of the Electric Arc Furnace

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study presents a next‐generation mechanistic model of the electric arc furnace (EAF). It describes equations for all crucial processes appearing during the steel‐recycling process in an EAF, i.e., thermal, mass, and chemical. The model was parameterized and validated using industrial EAF data.

Reducing the use of Fossil Carbon and Fuels to Defossilize the Electric Steelmaking Route: Evaluation of the Effects of Alternative C‐Bearing Materials and Hydrogen in the Electric Arc Furnace

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 ...

Propagation Characteristics of Aluminum/Propylene Oxide Multiphase Cloud Explosion With Different AlH3 Ratios and Initiation Energies

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Explosion process of propylene oxide (PO)/Al/AlH3/air was investigated. The PO/Al/AlH3/air multiphase clouds under strong ignition detonation have reached a quasi‐detonation state. ABSTRACT Fuel‐air explosives (FAE) are an important source of explosion energy. The density advantage of aluminum hydride (AlH3) dust is obvious compared with that of liquid

The Evolution of Electrochemical and Safety Properties of Nonflammable Triethyl Phosphate Based Electrolyte Under Salt Concentration Control

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
By regulating the lithium salt concentration to alter the solvation structure of Li+, and subsequently affecting the chemical composition of the SEI, the evolution of salt concentration on the electrochemical and safety performance of cells are explored. ABSTRACT Phosphates exhibit excellent flame retardancy. Phosphate‐based electrolytes with high‐salt‐

Teaching Enjoyment and Vitality as Mediators of Cognitive Flexibility and Reflective Teaching in EFL Teachers: A Mixed‐Methods Serial Mediation Analysis

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Reflective teaching (RT) is influenced by a range of cognitive, pedagogical, and psycho‐affective factors in second/foreign language (L2) education. However, empirical evidence on the influence of psycho‐affective variables on teachers' reflectivity remains limited.
