Achieving Net‐Zero in the Electricity Sector in China by 2050 Considering Environmental and Economic Objectives

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
China's pathways to net‐zero electricity by 2050 are evaluated using life cycle environmental and economic assessment across six scenarios. Results show that a renewables‐only grid offers the best overall environmental performance and lowest cost, but increases burdens on metal depletion, land use, and ecotoxicity.

First‐Principles Investigation of the Thermoelectric Behavior of the Orthorhombic Cadmium Stannate (Cd2SnO4)

Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2026.
Cd2SnO4 exhibits excellent thermoelectric properties with a high Seebeck coefficient, power factor, and figure of merit, surpassing Bi2Te3. It shows both positive and negative Seebeck coefficient values, making it suitable for diverse applications. Its high electrical conductivity and low thermal conductivity enhance efficiency, while its negative Hall

Utilization of Waste Materials Using the Müller–Kühne Process—A Life Cycle Inventory Study

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 78-84, March 2026.
This study presents a Life Cycle Inventory of the Müller–Kühne process (MKP), which converts gypsum waste into sulfuric acid and cement clinker. The MKP outperforms conventional cement production regarding material yield, though its specific energy demand is higher. Consequently, potentials for circular gypsum waste utilization are discussed.
