Leveraging Double Materiality as a Decision‐Making Tool for ESG Management and Reporting in Hydroponics

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and double materiality can be integrated within the agri‐food sector, with a particular focus on a company operating in hydroponic agriculture. This study conducts a comprehensive double materiality assessment to evaluate the organization's socio‐environmental ...

Oxidative Fast Pyrolysis Enabling Autothermal Production of Porous Functionalized Biochar and Anhydrosugar/Phenol‐Rich Bio‐Oil From Biomass

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Oxidative fast pyrolysis of biomass enables autothermal production of value‐added products. ABSTRACT Oxidative fast pyrolysis can potentially overcome the heat‐supply bottleneck of conventional fast pyrolysis by enabling autothermal operation while also tailoring product quality through controlled oxygen addition.

B, N‐Co Doped Porous Carbon Nanotubes Supported Cu Single Atoms and B‐Doped Cu Nanoparticles for High‐Performance Electrocatalytic NO3RR and Zn‐Nitrate Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The ToC image shows a porous B, N‐doped carbon nanotube decorated with B‐doped Cu nanoparticles for nitrate‐to‐ammonia conversion. The unique structure enhances charge transport, promotes the adsorption and activation of key intermediates, alters the rate‐determining step, suppresses hydrogen evolution, and improves NH3 yield and Faradaic efficiency ...

Green and sustainable synthesis of magnetite from copper slag via citrate complexation for methylene blue dye removal from water

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study proposes a novel, green, and sustainable method for synthesizing magnetic iron oxides from metallurgical copper slag (CS), leveraging its iron content as a valuable resource. Iron was extracted via acid leaching using edible citric acid (ECA), forming a citrate–iron complex (CSL), which was subsequently thermally decomposed at 300°C

The key role of biochar in amending acidic soil: reducing soil acidity and improving soil acid buffering capacity

Biochar
Soil acidification negatively affects plant growth, soil microbial composition and diversity, and the sustainability of agricultural ecosystems. The primary sources of soil acidity include base cations (BCs) leaching loss, the weathering of aluminum ...

Understanding the biochar's role in ameliorating soil acidity

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019
Extensive acidic soils, which suffer from accelerated soil acidification, are found in southern China. Soil acidity, aluminum toxicity, and nutrient deficiencies severely limited crop productivity in acidic soils.

Sustainability Assessment of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises: A Systematic Review and Hybrid Architecture for Credible, Salient, and Legitimate Knowledge Governance

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability assessment advances corporate social responsibility toward inclusive development. Widely recognized approaches prove inadequate for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), resulting in fragmented proliferation that hinders cumulative knowledge.

Strategies for Controlling Acidity of Arable Soils—Sustainable Liming Systems

Agronomy
Stabilizing soil pH is not only a production effect, but mainly an environmental effect that requires a holistic approach and action. Current liming practices in arable soils are limited solely to mitigating and potentially eliminating the negative ...

Isotopic exchangeability reveals that soil phosphate is mobilised by carboxylate anions, whereas acidification had the reverse effect [PDF]

SOIL
Mineral P is an increasingly scarce resource, and therefore the mobilisation of legacy soil P must be optimised to maintain soil fertility. We have used isotopic exchangeability to probe the lability of native soil P in four contrasting soils following ...
