Cluster Analysis of Circular Economy and Industrial Symbiosis Practices and Their Impact on Sustainability Performance in the Plastics Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how plastics manufacturing firms can be classified according to their level of implementation of circular economy (CE) and industrial symbiosis (IS) practices and how such adoption influences sustainability performance. Using data from plastics manufacturing firms, we integrate cluster analysis with partial least squares ...

Mass Production of Waste PVC‐Mediated Bamboo‐Derived Hard Carbon for Ultra‐Long Life Sodium Storage

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
By a scalable PVC‐mediated bifunctional strategy, pre‐carbonized micrometer bamboo powder is converted into a functionally partitioned hard carbon anode with distinct domains. Featuring abundant internal closed pores and surface sp2‐enriched graphitic regions, this anode delivers exceptional high‐rate long‐cycle stability, retaining 93% capacity after ...

A lumped modelling framework for the epoxidation of vegetable oils and fatty acid methyl esters

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Epoxidized vegetable oils and fatty acid methyl esters are promising bio‐based alternatives to phthalates for plasticizer applications. Their synthesis typically involves the reaction of unsaturated double bonds with peracetic acid in a biphasic liquid–liquid system, where the simultaneous occurrence of reaction and phase partitioning makes ...

New Insights Into the Three‐Dimensional Mechanics of the Flagellar Beat Cycle

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in imaging at the molecular scale have provided greater detail concerning the three‐dimensional structure of the ciliary/flagellar axoneme. Additionally, it has recently been confirmed that electrostatic forces regulate the dynein‐tubulin interaction at the microtubule binding domain (MTBD) of dynein, and at the junction of the nexin ...
