Low‐Carbon Energy Transition and Corporate Carbon Emissions: The Critical Role of Climate Change Mitigation Policies and Institutional Context

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the strategic efficacy of corporate low‐carbon energy transition, such as through nuclear energy adoption, as a response to decarbonization pressures. Analyzing an international sample of energy firms, we demonstrate that the relationship between this form of transition and emission reductions is not technologically ...

Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Gas Network Development in Compact Bentonite: Key Controls on the Stability of Flow Pathways

Geofluids, 2019
Compacted bentonite is proposed as an engineered barrier material within facilities for the geological disposal of radioactive waste. Barrier performance and its interaction with a free gas phase must be considered as part of sound repository design ...

Intramolecular Matere Bonds in Isostructural Rubidium (18‐Crown‐6) Pertechnetate and Perrhenate Dimers

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Two rubidium cations that are not fully encapsulated by 18‐crown‐6 are bridged by two pertechnetate units to form a dimer. These two pertechnetate units are nearly linearly aligned to each other to form Matere bonds (MaBs), a type of noncovalent σ‐hole interaction.

DISPOSAL OF LOW AND INTERMEDIATE LEVEL WASTE IN HUNGARY

Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2012
There are two operating facilities for management of low and intermediate level radioactive waste in Hungary. Experience with radioactive waste has a relatively long history and from its legacy some problems are to be solved, like the question of the ...

Feasibility study on the management of electric arc furnace dust contaminated with 137Cs from the steelmaking industry

Results in Engineering
Accidental melting of orphaned 137Cs sources during steel recycling leads to the generation of large volumes of contaminated electric arc furnace dust (EAFD), posing a major challenge in radioactive waste management.
