Box–Behnken optimization and ANN‐ANFIS integrated modelling for transesterification using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

Mapping Corporate Environment, Social, and Governance Discourses: Analysis of Korean Companies' Sustainability Reports (2014–2024)

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporations increasingly use Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reports to articulate their commitments, priorities, and performance in sustainability governance. This study examines how Korean firms have configured and reconfigured their sustainability discourses across industries and time using 634 sustainability reports (2014–2024)

Purification of Li2CO3 Obtained through Pyrometallurgical Treatment of NMC Black Mass from Electric Vehicle Batteries

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) obtained from the black mass of recycled lithium batteries is dissolved in water under controlled conditions to remove lithium fluoride (LiF), which is present at a concentration of 3.08 % by weight. The dissolution is carried out at temperatures below 10 °C, and it has been demonstrated that lower temperatures result in ...

A rock brittleness index based on the postpeak energy release rate and damage surface characteristics for brittle hard rock

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study examines energy evolution in rock rupture via triaxial direct shear tests, exploring the impact of confining pressure and temperature on fracture surface randomness. A novel energy‐based brittleness index is proposed, validated experimentally, and compared with existing methods for reliability and accuracy.

Modeling proppant transport and settling in a 3D propagating fracture

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A versatile multiphysics tool is presented for simulating the complex processes involved in hydraulic fracturing treatments. The model couples fracture opening and propagation, variable‐density slurry flow, and proppant particle transport within the multiphysics object‐oriented simulation environment framework, based on two‐phase mixture equations and ...
