Are SMEs Claiming to Be Circular, Actually Circular? An Empirical Study on the Implementation and Performance Evaluation of Circular Economy Practices

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy is a key paradigm for ecological and ethical transition, particularly in the manufacturing sector. Although small and medium‐sized enterprises are pivotal in advancing the circular economy, the implementation of circular economy practices remains limited, with a focus on less impactful practices such as recycling and ...

Elucidating the Interplay Between Structure and Electrochemical Behavior in Lignin‐Based Polymer Electrolytes for Potassium Batteries

Battery Energy, Volume 4, Issue 2, March 2025.
Three biobased membranes are synthesized by crosslinking oxidized Kraft lignin with poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether of increasing molecular weights. After incorporation of solvated potassium salts, potassium batteries including these biobased gel polymer electrolytes are able to deliver a maximum specific capacity at 0.05 A g−1 as high as 130 ...

Mixed Ion‐Electron Thermoelectric Generators With Ionogels Blended With MXene Continuously Harvesting Heat Under Both Steady and Fluctuated Temperature Gradients

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
A mixed ion‐electron thermoelectric generator (MTEG) based on MXene ionogels converts both steady and fluctuating temperature gradients into continuous electricity. The hybrid conduction arises from electron tunneling through MXene networks and ionic diffusion driven by the Soret effect, enabling stable voltage output and high thermopower for efficient

Gibbs energy minimization thermodynamics for CO2 capture by aqueous amines: Conservation laws, concentration variables, and parameter consistency

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
We clarify how Gibbs‐energy‐minimization models for aqueous‐amine CO2 capture fail when conservation constraints and concentration conventions are inconsistent. Exact standard‐state conversions and Reaktoro case studies show that P(CO2)‐loading fits can mask non‐unique parameters and wrong speciation, motivating complete water‐inclusive formulations ...

Tracking Climate and Environmental Attention: A News‐Based Composite Index

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study introduces the Climate and Environmental Attention Index, a composite indicator that tracks media attention to climate and environmental issues. Based on the Semantic Brand Score, the proposed index extracts significant signals from unstructured text, going beyond traditional measures of word frequency and sentiment.

Experimental study on burning rate and flame geometry in construction tunnel fires under high geothermal conditions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating
