Board That Transforms: Relationship Between Board Structure and Environmental, Social, and Governance Performance in BRICS Countries

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between board composition characteristics and ESG performance in companies from BRICS countries, and to assess how sector sensitivity moderates this relationship. A sample of 2045 BRICS companies was examined using panel data regression with random effects and logistic regression ...

Geochemistry‐Driven Recovery of Li and Fe From Spent LiFePO4 Cathodes via Stabilized Phosphorus Mineralization

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A geochemistry‐guided, acid‐free recycling paradigm for spent LFP batteries. ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries presents a critical challenge for sustainable end‐of‐life management, where conventional recycling methods heavily depend on intensive acid/oxidant use and overlook persistent phosphorus pollution.

Efficient Recycling of Spent LiCoO2 Cathodes Via Confined Pore‐Assisted Simplified Direct Carbothermic Reduction Without External Reducing Agents

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A simplified direct carbothermic reduction (SDCR) process is developed for efficient recycling of spent LiCoO2 cathodes. The SDCR method employs carbon conductive agents and organic binders embedded in the electrode as internal reducing agents, while the confined pores of calendered electrodes promote the retention of in situ generated reduction gases.

Interfacial Solvent Molecular Engineering via High‐Safety Dense Separators for High‐Rate Lithium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The dense PPS‐separator prevents thermal runaway by allowing electron transfer through the steel needle during penetration, while the residual electrolyte enables brief ion migration and Joule heating, causing rapid electrolyte vaporization, collapse of the ion transport network, and a sharp drop in ionic conductivity.

The Gas‐Liquid Separation Characteristics Inside a Drainage Self‐Priming Pump Under Different Discharge Valve Openings

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
To investigate the influence of discharge valve opening on the self‐priming characteristics of a self‐priming pump, numerical calculations are conducted for four different discharge valve openings based on a circulation piping system. The hydraulic performance and the internal flow characteristics during self‐priming process are obtained.
