Techno‐Economic Analysis of Polylactic Acid from Corn Stover: Understanding Uncertainty and Variability via Artificial Intelligence Tools

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study analyses the uncertainty and variability existing in the economic performance of polylactic acid (PLA) production, via integrating techno‐economic analysis with process models and Monte Carlo simulation enabled by artificial intelligence. The results show that the minimum selling price varies from $2,107 to $3076/t PLA.

Market Share, R&D Cooperation, and EU Competition Policy [PDF]

open access: yes
Current EU policy exempts horizontal R&D agreements from antitrust con- cerns when the combined market shares of participants are low enough. This paper argues that existing theory does not support limiting the exemption to low market shares.

A Covalent 3D CNT@rGO Nano‐Hybrid for High‐Efficiency Conductivity in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A facile one‐step CVD strategy achieves high‐yield (7692.31%) growth of CNTs on rGO, forming a covalently bonded 3D CNT@rGO hybrid. This structure enables multidirectional conductive networks in LiFePO4 cathodes, delivering superior rate performance, high ICE (99.88%), and 96.32% capacity retention after 300 cycles at 1 C.

Generalized Mechanism Model for Ecosystem Hysteresis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A simplified model examines ecosystem transitions into alternative states after disturbances by leveraging positive and negative feedbacks. It identifies critical tipping points and quantifies hysteresis. Tests conducted on lakes, grasslands, and pitcher‐plant leaves align closely with empirical data and enable the prediction of recovery trajectories ...
