Leading Toward Sunset or Sunrise? CEO Career Horizon, ESG Performance, Market Leadership, and Underperformance Duration

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the effect of chief executive officers' (CEOs') career horizons on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and investigate how hard cues influence this performance effect. Our study offers a new perspective of CEO career horizon as a mechanism that enables firms to improve their ESG performance when occupying a ...

Pathways to Carbon Neutrality: The Role of Environmental Governance, Environmental Technology, Renewable Energy Transition, and Economic Policy Uncertainty in Africa

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As climate change and environmental deterioration continue to escalate due to substantial CO2 emissions, nations worldwide are implementing approaches to alleviate CO2 emissions and accomplish carbon neutrality (CNE) goals. The current study examined CNE objectives for five selected nations in Africa, spanning from 1990 to 2022.

From Global Standards to Local Compliance: Implementation Heterogeneity in Cocoa Certification in Indonesia

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certified companies translate voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) into local practice, yet little is known about how company‐level implementation of VSS relates to farmer compliance. This paper examines Rainforest Alliance (RA) implementation by three certified companies in the Indonesian cocoa sector. Drawing on compliance and regulatory

Beyond a Technocentric Transition: A Diverse Economies Perspective for Social Justice in Circular Economy Business Models

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy, dominated by capitalocentric, technocentric, and eco‐modernist discourses, risks perpetuating systemic injustice because of its limited consideration of the social and of what is possible. In this article, we examine how social justice can be embedded into circular business models (CBMs)—key drivers of the circular ...

Coupled Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production With Selective Biomass Valorization via Active Sites Construction and Electron Transport Channels Engineering

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
A ternary CdS/1T‐WS2/CNTs heterojunction is in‐situ constructed via hydrothermal method, which is used for photocatalytic biomass reforming (biomass‐derived alcohols, lignin). It exhibits outstanding performance: H2 production rate of 26.17 mmol/g/h for benzyl alcohol (BA), benzaldehyde (BD) generation rate of 8.29 mmol/g/h, 90.06% BD selectivity, 100%

VOCs Adsorption and Exchange Properties in Bispidine‐Based Mn(II) 1D CPs Made of Orthogonally Oriented Linear Chains

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Combining the chiral bispidine ligand L1 with MnCl2 affords coordination polymers (CPs) with an unusual topology for this family of compounds, consisting of orthogonally packed ribbon‐like one‐dimensional (1D) chains. Their behavior was investigated through single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal exchange with aromatic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and ...

Crystallization‐Induced Emission Enhancements of Hybrid Butenolide‐Diphenylethenes

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Hybrid butenolide‐diphenylethene fluorophores show crystallization‐induced emission enhancement (CIEE), with substituents tuning solid‐state quantum yields up to 50%. One derivative, BuCM, displays dual‐state emissions (DSE), making this compact scaffold a promising platform for CIEE/DSE‐active fluorophores.

Energy Flexibilization and Demand Response for a Novel Decentralized Power‐to‐Methanol Process

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
This study presents the results of an optimization framework for the scheduling of a Power‐to‐methanol process coupled with an electrolyser, renewable energy sources and a battery. The optimal dynamic operating schedule is computed with different configurations and boundary conditions, showing the advantages of flexible operation.

Influencing Parameters at Drum Screens for Packaging Screening

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Drum (trommel) screens are extensively utilized in the classification of packaging waste according to its particle size. The present study aims to quantify the size‐classification behaviour of elongated, hollow packaging‐like items (representing bottles, tubes and cups) using cylindrical and tubular test pieces.
