Development of a Mechanically Regenerating Desublimator for Freeze‐Drying Systems in the Food Industry

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Thermal defrosting limits desublimator efficiency in freeze‐drying. This review and case study compares thermal versus mechanical regeneration, links frost properties and external heat transfer to energy demand, and summarizes pilot‐scale scraping results enabling single‐unit, continuous lyophilization.

The Price of Circularity: Exploring the Determinants of Consumer Willingness to Pay

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition towards a circular economy (CE) requires not only technological and organisational innovation but also consumer engagement in adopting circular products. A key driver of this process is consumers' stated willingness to pay (WTP) a premium, which remains constrained by psychological, perceptual and contextual barriers.
