Sustainability Practices in SMEs: An Explorative Study on Ethnic Minority–Owned SMEs in the United Kingdom

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The application of firm sustainability practices (FSP) in ethnic minority–owned small and medium–sized enterprises (ESMEs) has received significantly less scholarly focus, making ESME FSP an emerging academic field. This study aims to explore the factors influencing ethnic minority–owned SMEs involved in FSP and identify the factors hindering ...

Exploring the Profile of Online Gamblers: Key Factors and the Role of Smartphone Addiction in Long‐Term Gambling Engagement

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of online gambling has significantly impacted the gambling industry. However, concerns have arisen regarding how psychosocial factors and excessive smartphone use influence user behavior on online gambling platforms, which has highlighted the need for broader and long‐term studies. More nationally representative studies are

Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Biodegradability studies and contact phase trials towards a cleaner environment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process, developed in our previous study, is used for septic wastewater treatment. This high‐rate contact stabilization pre‐treatment uses typical waste streams found in wastewater treatment plants to reduce a portion of the loadings on the main treatment trains.

Iron and Nickel Substituted Perovskite Cobaltites for Sustainable Oxygen Evolving Anodes in Alkaline Environment

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Perovskite oxide catalysts with reduced Co content, substituted by Fe and Ni, are synthesized and studied for their activity in the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline media. An increase in the intrinsic catalytic activity (obtained by the (RctCdl)−1 product) of the base material (Ba0.5Gd0.8La0.7Co2O6‐δ) is seen for an as high as 70 % substitution of

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.

Synergistic SnSe2@Ti3C2Tx MXene Heterostructured Separator for Highly Efficient Polysulfide Adsorption, Catalytic Redox Acceleration, and Enhanced Electrochemical Stability in Advanced Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A multifunctional SnSe2@MXene heterostructure coated on a separator serves as a catalytic interlayer in Li‐S batteries. This design synergistically integrates the strong polysulfide adsorption and catalytic activity of SnSe2 with the high electrical conductivity of the MXene matrix, effectively suppressing the shuttle effect and enabling long‐term ...
