A system dynamics‐based framework for bioenergy planning in sub‐Saharan Africa: integrating circular bioeconomy and Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy scarcity remains a persistent challenge in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), where limited access to reliable, affordable, and clean energy constrains socioeconomic development. Biomass resources, including agricultural residues, forest waste, and waste from other biological sources, are widely available, but their use for modern energy ...

Evaluation of Cropping Model of Green Manure Crops with Main Crops for Upland-Specific [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Soil Science and Fertilizer, 2013
For organic farming, green manure crops such as leguminous forages and barley have been broadly used to improve soil fertility and soil physical and chemical properties by repeatedly cutting and mulching them directly as winter crop in the field in the rotation.

Theoretical georeferenced potential for biomethane production in Brazil from organic waste, including logistics and cost aspects

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract One of the challenges for biomethane production in Brazil, as well as its use, is related to transportation logistics, owing to the lack of detailed studies of the entire supply chain at a national level, which includes all the stages from waste collection to transportation for its final use.

Overview of various crops used for green manure

open access: yesPROCEEDINGS OF V INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE “CURRENT STATE, PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF AGRARIAN SCIENCE”, 2020
The aim of our research was to determine the influence of different green manure crops on the process of organic matter entry into the soil, changes in physical and chemical properties of soil, etc. The yields of green mass of sweet clover and sainfoin were the highest – 29.1 and 27.1 t/ha, respectively.

Sustaining Circular Innovation Under Volatile Market Conditions: The Critical Role of Industry Platforms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While industry platforms are widely recognized as enablers of circular innovation, we still know little about how they evolve to scale and sustain innovation as economic conditions tighten and circular economy funding schemes become more selective.

Differences of Soil Carbon by Green Manure Crops in Rotated Cropping System [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Soil Science and Fertilizer, 2012
This experiment was conducted to select winter-adaptable crop system or cropping systems for an enhanced carbon (C) fixation amount in plant biomass and soil. Single or mixed cropping systems of green manure crops, rye (R), triticale (TC), hairy vetch (HV), TC+HV, and control (fallow) were investigated during winter and spring.

Biodiversity Strategies in Action—Empirical Evidence From the Food Value Chain

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is an increasing need for better understanding of firm activities that contribute to biodiversity preservation. Panwar, Ober, and Pinkse offer a valuable typology of corporate biodiversity protection strategies based on temporal and spatial dimensions, namely, the preloss (proactive) strategies of conservation and compensation, and the ...

Industrial Symbiosis as a Neglected Opportunity in Industrial Decarbonisation Pathways: Qualitative Insights From the Australian Manufacturing Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Industrial symbiosis (IS) represents a key strategy for industrial decarbonisation (ID) by converting one industry's waste into valuable inputs for another, reducing emissions and resource extraction. Scientific studies have explored the concept, implementation approaches and theoretical foundations of IS.

Beyond a Technocentric Transition: A Diverse Economies Perspective for Social Justice in Circular Economy Business Models

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy, dominated by capitalocentric, technocentric, and eco‐modernist discourses, risks perpetuating systemic injustice because of its limited consideration of the social and of what is possible. In this article, we examine how social justice can be embedded into circular business models (CBMs)—key drivers of the circular ...
