Advancements in CO2 Capture Technologies: A Review of Amine Absorption and Alternative Methods for Post‐Combustion Integration

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon capture technologies are poised to become one of the primary focuses regarding the achievement of net‐zero emissions by the year 2050. In these technologies, particular attention is given to post‐combustion CO2 capture, which is more easily implemented at existing power stations and other industries.

Evaluation and Optimization of COD Removal Performance for a Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant by Response Surface Methodology: The Case of Van Muradiye

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the performance of the Van Muradiye Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant was evaluated with Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The effects of pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen (DO), and suspended solids (SS) on the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency were evaluated using samples collected from the plant's inlet and ...

Dark Heritage Prospection ‐ Mapping the Treblinka II Extermination Camp Using a Magnetometer Survey and Integrated Archival Sources

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The history of Nazi German extermination camps has, until recently, relied primarily on eyewitness testimony. Very few official documents detailing the facilities survived the war due to the special operation ‘Sonderaktion 1005’, dedicated to hiding their existence and extent.

Biogas production from Opuntia stricta Haw.: microbial diversity and solid load influence on sludge recycle systems

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The search for alternative and sustainable energy sources becomes urgent as energy demand increases and fossil fuels become less available, especially in water‐scarce regions such as the Brazilian semi‐arid region, where current projections of global warming and the expansion of arid and semi‐arid zones point to a future of desertification ...

Pathways to Carbon Neutrality: The Role of Environmental Governance, Environmental Technology, Renewable Energy Transition, and Economic Policy Uncertainty in Africa

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As climate change and environmental deterioration continue to escalate due to substantial CO2 emissions, nations worldwide are implementing approaches to alleviate CO2 emissions and accomplish carbon neutrality (CNE) goals. The current study examined CNE objectives for five selected nations in Africa, spanning from 1990 to 2022.

Decoding the Circular Economy Job Market in the EU: A Quantitative and Comparative Analysis

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy (CE) is increasingly promoted as a pathway to sustainable development, yet systematic evidence on the structure of the CE labor market remains limited. Little is known about how CE‐related job opportunities are distributed across countries, which job characteristics dominate this market, and how such patterns compare with ...
