An Indicator‐Based Decision Framework for Circular Bioeconomy Transition in the Steel Industry: Integrating Multiphase Learning and Cooperative Game Modelling

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing attention to the circular bioeconomy (CBE), the steel industry currently lacks a standardised, sectoral measurement framework to facilitate a low‐carbon transition. In this study, a decision‐support framework for evaluating CBE performance in the steel industry is proposed.

Transient thermal modelling of green anode cooling in the aluminium industry

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Summary of the methodology. Abstract Anodes, which are used in electrolytic aluminium production, are made by mixing dry aggregate (petroleum coke, rejected anodes, and butts) with coal tar pitch, compacting the resulting paste (green anode), and baking (baked anode). After compaction, the anodes are cooled to maintain their structural integrity before
