Tecnored process - high potential in using different kinds of solid fuels

Materials Research, 2005
One important feature of the Brazilian Tecnored ironmaking process is its flexibility to use different types of solid fuels, other than metallurgical coke, as proved in the pilot plant tests by extensively using green petroleum coke, biomasses, high ash ...

Environmental assessment of potential industrial waste management in the Czech Republic

Journal of Industrial Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract In contrast to municipal waste, the much larger quantities of industrial waste are less frequently addressed, both in legislation and in life cycle assessment (LCA). However, LCA studies can identify opportunities to reduce national environmental impacts by improving the management of industrial waste, and they can inform legislation that ...

The biophysical economic structure of four developed countries: Lessons for decarbonization

Journal of Industrial Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study provides a comparative analysis of the biophysical economic structures of four developed economies—Sweden, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. We draw upon results from input–output models to map and analyze capital, energy, and carbon relationships in each economy.

Proximity to War: The Stock Market Response to the Russian Invasion of Ukraine

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We identify a “proximity penalty” in the stock market response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine: the closer countries are to Ukraine, the lower their equity returns in a four‐week window around the start of the war. This result holds even at the firm level within Ukraine's neighbors. Trade linkages explain two‐thirds of the proximity penalty.

The mechanism and thermodynamics of ethyl alcohol sorption process on activated petroleum coke

Записки Горного института
The low-quality petcoke does not find qualified application and is stockpiled at refineries or used as solid fuel. One of the promising ways to use low-quality petroleum coke is its physical or chemical activation in order to obtain a highly porous ...

Estimating National and Foreign Trade Elasticities Using Generalized Transport Costs

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 471-496, March 2025.
ABSTRACT We introduce the definition of two distinct trade elasticities corresponding to imports from regions located in the same country (national elasticities) and foreign regions located in other countries (foreign elasticities). We resort to a three‐tier nested CES utility structure to derive the corresponding demand gravity equations.

Horizontal Clusters and Firm Resilience

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper examines the role that cluster‐specific horizontal relationships play in firm resilience following a negative shock. We use the Emilia earthquake that hit part of Emilia‐Romagna (Italy) in May 2012 to provide evidence of the negative effect of horizontal clustering on firm performance after a natural disaster.

Market Potential, Road Accessibility, and Firm Births: Evidence From 20 Years of Road Investment

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the causal effects of road accessibility, measured by market potential, on firm births in Portuguese municipalities between 1991 and 2016, a period marked by significant road improvements. We address the endogeneity of market potential by employing instrumental variables within Poisson Pseudo‐maximum Likelihood ...

The hallmark problem for conceptual engineering

Metaphilosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract ‘Conceptual engineering’ is the new buzzword in the world of philosophical methods. Yet, on some accounts, it is hard to see what is distinctively new about it—if anything. This article tackles this hallmark problem for conceptual engineering.
