Free Trade Zones and Corporate ESG: Evidence From a Quasi‐Natural Experiment in China

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how China's Pilot Free Trade Zones (FTZs) influence corporate ESG performance. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences model on Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2024, we combine coarsened exact matching (CEM) and geography‐based instrumental variables to ensure robust identification.

New column configurations for pressure swing batch distillation I. Feasibility Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The feasibility of the pressure swing distillation in different batch column configurations is investigated. The method is based on the assumption of maximal separation. Besides studying the well known batch configurations (rectifier, stripper, middle

Influence of initial binary mixture state of matter on heat costs at rectification

open access: yesТонкие химические технологии, 2014
Analysis of heat cost for rectification was performed taking into account the phase state of the original mixture. It was proved theoretically that increasing feed vapor fraction leads to decreasing energy consumption in conventional distillation process.

Managerial Conflicts of Interest: Heterogeneous Sustainability Outcomes Through Actions Directed at Primary and Secondary Stakeholders

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether firms' sustainability actions aimed at serving multiple stakeholders lead to similar or differing sustainability outcomes depending on the manager's stakeholder focus. It proposes a conceptual framework distinguishing between primary and secondary stakeholders, wherein managers can face conflicts of interest ...

Methanol With Increased Water Content in Internal Combustion Engines

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
This study investigates the potential to improve overall Well‐to‐Wheel efficiency by using low‐purity methanol from synthesis of hydrogen and furnace gas as CO2‐source. Combustion efficiency is comparable to pure methanol, while distillation energy could be saved.

Design and implementation of a 3D‐printed modular distillation tower for experimental teaching in chemical engineering

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Several authors have reported the disconnection between the skills, abilities, and attitudes of graduates from STEM careers with the current needs of the labour market. In science and engineering fields, research has found the need for interdisciplinary approaches that encourage meaningful learning.

Nonlinear permuted Granger causality

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Granger causality is an established, contentious method that seeks causal temporal connections via association and precedence. While not true causal inference, it assists in mapping networks of information flow that may warrant further study.

Multidimensional Engineering Enabling Rate‐Matched C−N Coupling for Efficient Organonitrogen Electrosynthesis

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review introduces rate matching as a unifying design principle for efficient electrochemical C−N coupling and highlights multidimensional engineering of catalysts, interfaces, and reactors to synchronize the generation of carbon‐ and nitrogen‐containing intermediates, balance their surface coverages, maximize C−N bond formation, and enable ...
