Environment, Health and Wealth: Towards an Analysis of Municipal Solid Waste Management in Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria [PDF]
, 2012 The management of municipal solid waste is one of the challenges facing the developing countries because governments, institutions, and private sectors have given solid waste management low priority and ignoring the implication it has on the general ...

Sustainable Catalyst‐Free PLG Networks: Recyclability, Biodegradability, and Functional Performance
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A catalyst‐additive free covalent adaptable network is developed from star‐shaped poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) cross‐linked with pyromellitic dianhydride, enabling internal carboxylic acid‐driven transesterification. The resulting biodegradable network exhibits mechanical robustness (Young's modulus ≈1.6 GPa), complete recyclability, rapid biodegradation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A circular route, involving upcycling of waste surgical masks, affords a Mn‐based layered carbide with porosity, redox activity and low work function. These features enable its effective operation as positive supercapacitor electrode in an aqueous asymmetric supercapacitor delivering 213 Wh L−1 energy density.

Recycling of Sound Insulation Headliner Waste Material
Journal of the Korea Academia-Industrial cooperation Society, 2013 흡음재로 널리 사용되는 헤드라이너는 발포성 폴리우레탄(PU foam)과 유리섬유(Glass Fiber,GF) 로 구성된 복합재료로, 제품의 생산 공정을 거치는 동안 부산물 형태의 폐기물이 발생한다. 헤드라이너 폐기물에 대한 효과적인 재활용을 위해 헤드라이너 구성성분에 대한 분리공정이 중요한 문제점이다. 헤드라이너에 대한 열분석결과에 의하면 중량의 감량 비율은 $400^{\circ}C$ 까지의 온도범위에서는 발포성 폴리우레탄 > 비발포성 폴리우레탄 > 부직포 > 1st layer > 유리섬유의 순으로 감량이 증가하는 결과를 보이고 있다.

Novel Functional Materials via 3D Printing by Vat Photopolymerization
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This Perspective systematically analyzes strategies for incorporating functionalities into 3D‐printed materials via Vat Photopolymerization (VP). It explores the spectrum of achievable functionalities in recently reported novel materials—such as conductive, energy‐storing, biodegradable, stimuli‐responsive, self‐healing, shape‐memory, biomaterials, and

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Two isomorphic COFs were synthesized and compared, including an amphoteric COF (SQ‐TAPT) and a neutral COF (PDA‐TAPT). The ionic bonds in SQ‐TAPT introduce more Born effective charges, thereby enhancing its ionic displacement polarization. Experimental and theoretical calculations demonstrated that SQ‐TAPT exhibited higher polarity and stronger ...
