Testimonial: Wool production & biodiversity working together for Rob & Lucy Adams - 'Swallowfield'

, 2011
Rob and Lucy Adams own and manage 'Swallowfield' and nearby 'Tulloch', which were purchased by Rob's parents in 1970-73. Fifteen per cent of 'Swallowfield' is regularly cropped or sown to pasture, 30% is timbered and the balance is fertilised native ...

Synchronising Stakeholder Roles: How Do Stakeholders Actively and Dynamically Shape Networked Business Models for Sustainability?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tackling sustainability challenges requires coordinated actions across diverse stakeholders. Sustainability‐oriented innovation thus demands networked business models for sustainability (NBMfS), where focal companies and stakeholders co‐create value through interdependent but coordinated roles.

Characterisation of Ovine KRTAP19-3 and Its Impact on Wool Traits in Chinese Tan Sheep

Animals
Wool, a natural fibre derived from sheep, can present a challenge to wool processing and manufacturing industries because of the variation in fibre traits.

Locked in Transition: Examining the Role of Paradoxical Tensions in the Transition From Industrial Cluster to Eco‐Clusters

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Industrial clusters are central to the circular economy transition, yet how they develop into eco‐clusters and the paradoxical tensions this transformation fuels remain underexplored. Drawing on 48 in‐depth interviews and secondary data from a Turkish textile‐recycling cluster, we develop an empirically grounded model of eco‐cluster transition

Detection of a Second KAP22 Family Member in Sheep and Analysis of Its Genetic Variation and Associations with Selected Wool Fibre Traits

Animals
The keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are a class of wool proteins. They form a matrix that cross-links the wool intermediate filament keratins. The KAPs are thought to affect wool fibre structure and properties and have been associated with variation ...

An Investigation of Significant Factors Influencing Western Australian Wool Producers to Produce Wool: A Structural Equation Modelling Approach

Why Australian wool producers remained in the business despite the hardship they have experienced for much of the 1990s from low prices of wool? This question was raised frequently by research scientists and policymakers of the wool industry.

Circular Innovations in Complex Systems: A Blueprint of Four Design Archetypes

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular innovations (CI), defined as the redesign of products, services or practices to minimise waste, reduce resource use and regenerate natural systems, are essential for advancing the circular economy. Despite growing recognition, their deployment in systems of linked parts with unpredictable interactions (complex systems) remains limited

Grafting Nanolayers of Ni and Co Catalysts Around the Edges of Hierarchical Zeolite 13X by Leveraging the Crystal's Defects for CO2 Methanation

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The deactivation of nickel‐based catalysts at high temperatures poses a significant challenge in CO2 methanation processes. To address this, a strong metal–support interaction between nickel and the support was engineered by exploiting the crystal defects present in hierarchical porous zeolite 13X.

Advance Contracts for the Sale of Wool in Medieval England; An Undeveloped and Inefficient Market? [PDF]

While it is commonly believed that derivative instruments are a recent invention, we document the existence of forward contracts for the sale of wool in medieval England around 700 years ago.

CO2‐Driven Synthesis of Holey Edge‐Carboxylated Graphene for Tunable Electronic Interactions in Cu–CeO2‐Catalyzed Water‐Gas Shift Reaction

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Holey‐structured, edge‐carboxylated graphene with a controlled specific surface area was synthesized using an environmentally friendly, CO2‐activated, KOH‐free ball‐milling process. ABSTRACT Graphene, notable for its high specific surface area, is ideal for catalyst support but faces challenges under harsh thermal catalytic conditions.
