Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate reporting on the sustainability of business value propositions must be supported by reliable data sources and sound methodologies such as life cycle assessment (LCA). Showing commitment to more responsible activity without quantifying business impacts, or quantifying them only partially, could fall into greenwashing practices.

MicroplasticsPrimary consumers of microplastics are often zooplankton species such as the mysid shrimp, Americamysis bahia. Ingesting and interacting with these plastics can cause stress and lead to death.

Statistical Analysis and Stochastic Dislocation-Based Modelling of Microplasticity [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Plastic deformation in microscale differs from the macroscopic plasticity in two respects: (i) the flow stress of small samples depends on their size (ii) the scatter of plasticity increases significantly. In this work we focus on the scatter of plasticity.

A Roadmap for Biomass‐Driven Development of Sustainable Phase Change Materials
ChemSusChem, EarlyView.This comprehensive review advances the scientific understanding of sustainability and circularity in phase change material (PCM) fabrication by providing a strategic framework for developing composites from abundant, renewable resources. By screening biomass‐derived PCMs, carbons, and biopolymers, a roadmap is outlined for the development of ...

Separation of Microplastics from Blood Samples Using Traveling Surface Acoustic Waves
MicroplasticsMicroplastics have emerged as ubiquitous contaminants, attracting increasing global attention. Recent evidence confirms the presence of microplastics in human blood, suggesting their potential to interact with cells and induce adverse physiological ...

ChemSusChem, Accepted Article.Redox‐active electrosorbents are promising platforms for selective separations. However, these platforms face intrinsic challenges in extracting multiple species simultaneously, as their binding mechanisms are typically tailored to separate a single ion preferentially.

MicroplasticsAn experimental study was conducted to identify the behaviour of neutrally buoyant microplastics (specific density, 0.94) in different hydrodynamic conditions while focusing on combined wave–current conditions and the mixing across the hyporheic zone ...
