Design and Optimization of a Double‐Column Vapor Recompression Heat Pump Distillation Process via NSGA‐II for Separating Ternary Wide‐Boiling Mixtures

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel double‐column vapor recompression heat pump (DCVRHP) distillation process for separating ternary wide‐boiling‐range mixtures under two different vapor conditions: n‐hexane/n‐heptane/n‐octane using low pressure steam and n‐hexanol/n‐octanol/n‐decanol using high pressure steam.

Shifting burdens: how delayed decarbonisation of road transport affects other sectoral emission reductions

Environmental Research Letters
In 2022, fuel combustion in road transport accounted for approximately 21% (760 million tonnes) of CO _2 emissions in the European Union (EU). Transport is the only sector with rising emissions, with an increase of 24% compared to 1990.

Do Governance Structures Drive Green Building Adoption? A Machine Learning Approach With Random Forests

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of firms' propensity to adopt green buildings in the Euro Stoxx 300 and the S&P 500 indices, during 2012–2023. Using random forest binary classifiers, we assess the relative importance of financial, sectoral, geographic, and climate governance predictors and uncover nonlinear relationships often overlooked ...
