The Role of Supply Chain Capabilities in Linking Circular Economy Practices and Supply Chain Resilience

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how circular economy (CE) practices relate to supply chain resilience (SCRES), focusing on the capability‐based mechanisms through which CE strategies may influence resilience outcomes. Drawing on survey data from 125 Italian firms engaged in CE initiatives, we employ partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS‐

Organic amendments tighten nitrogen cycling in agricultural soils: a meta-analysis on gross nitrogen flux

Frontiers in Agronomy
IntroductionUnderstanding how nutrient inputs affect nitrogen (N) transformations and storage is vital for developing sustainable agroecosystems. Organic N inputs, such as crop residues (e.g., cover crop biomass and stover) and animal manures, can ...

Effect of Organic Amendments on the Evolution of Soil Organic Matter in Soils Stressed by Intensive Agricultural Practices

, 2013
Losses of soil organic carbon often occur because of intensive agricultural practices that lead to removal of organic carbon following harvest production and to insufficient inputs.

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...
