Social Sustainability in Chemical Engineering: Concepts, Methodologies, Challenges, and Integration Strategies

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical engineering faces an increasing imperative to integrate sustainability principles beyond traditional economic and environmental considerations. The social dimension—encompassing impacts on human well‐being, equity, community health, labor practices, and ethical governance—represents a critical yet often underdeveloped pillar within ...

Elastic-wave-equation numerical simulation using a time–space domain dispersion-relation-based staggered-grid finite-difference method

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Compared to the conventional high-order staggered-grid finite-difference method (C-SFD), the time–space domain dispersion-relation-based high-order staggered-grid finite-difference method (TS-SFD) can suppress the numerical dispersion more efficiently to

Who gets redeployed? Inventor characteristics and resource redeployment decisions

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary While the literature highlights the benefits of internally redeploying resources, there is less empirical guidance on which resources are most likely to be redeployed. We examine the relationship between inventor characteristics and redeployment decisions, motivated by the tension between costs and benefits of keeping a ...

The EU is unlikely to embrace shale gas as an alternative to Russian gas imports [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The reliance of European states on gas imports from Russia has been one of the key underlying factors shaping the EU’s response to the Ukraine crisis. However could the use of shale gas help to reduce the EU’s energy dependence on Russia?

Forgoing Nuclear: Nuclear Power Plant Closures and Carbon Emissions in the United States

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the effect of nuclear power plant decommissioning on electricity generation and carbon emissions in the United States. Using data on nuclear reactor closures in the United States between 1993 and 2022 and data on state‐level carbon emissions and electricity generation from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), this ...

Sustainability of UK shale gas in comparison with other electricity options: Current situation and future scenarios.

open access: yes, 2017
Many countries are considering exploitation of shale gas but its overall sustainability is currently unclear. Previous studies focused mainly on environmental aspects of shale gas, largely in the US, with scant information on socio-economic aspects.

‘CLOSING THE CARBON LOOP’: Climate Policy Discourses and the Material Politics of Municipal Waste‐to‐Biofuel Programs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Waste‐to‐biofuel (WTB) programs have gained popularity as a municipal circular economy and an emissions reduction strategy. The upgrading of biofuels to renewable natural gas (RNG) has drawn particular interest, as RNG can displace conventional fossil fuels in any existing natural gas end use and be delivered through existing pipeline ...

Weaponizing Nature, Naturalizing Violence: Anthropologies of Ecofascism

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After decades of denial and obstruction, the global Right is increasingly willing to acknowledge that climate change is a threat to lives and lifeways everywhere. Moreover, some seize on the specter of ecological collapse to advance fascistic politics.
