Analyzing Demand For Disposal And Recycling Services: A Systems Approach [PDF]

Pricing municipal solid waste (MSW) services using a flat fee offers no incentive to conserve on disposal. This has prompted the use of unit pricing schemes, which should reduce disposal in accordance with demand theory and encourage alternatives such as

Paving the Way for Next‐Generation Solid‐State Waste Heat Recovery: A Thermomagnetic Materials and Systems Roadmap

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Unlocking thermomagnetic low‐grade waste heat recovery. This perspective provides a comprehensive roadmap for the development of thermomagnetic materials and systems. By addressing key engineering challenges across multiple scales, it bridges the gap between micro‐power IoT devices and large‐scale industrial applications. ABSTRACT Nearly half of global

Role of Structural Disorder on Phonon Transport and Thermal Conductivity in Li6PS5Br

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Solid electrolytes are fast ion and slow heat conductors. Although both transport properties are governed by lattice dynamics and atomic structure, their interplay remains poorly understood. Here, we study this interrelation in anion‐ordered and disordered Li6PS5Br.
