Sustainable development and circular economy (CE) policy perspectives are growing in importance. However, there is little empirical research about the implementation of a CE or a critical review of its indicators at the country level. Using an institutional approach, this paper explores CE implementation strategies in advanced small open economies (SOEs) in the European Union (EU). We used a principal components analysis (PCA) and a clustering analysis based on data from the EU monitoring framework for the CE, specifically 13 small open economies from 2010-2017. The main findings reveal three CE implementation strategies correlated with CE development stages: integrated to value chain, focused on institutional compliance and fragmented profiles. Surprisingly, we found no evidence for the expansion of CE-related sectors based upon persons employed, value added or gross investments. This topic deserves further investigation, with important implications for future research and policymaking.

This study aimed to determine the regional sustainability of the healthy Batik Village from social, economic, and ecological perspectives. It was conducted in July 2019 in Kulon Progo, Special Region of Yogyakarta. Furthermore, the survey data were analysed using the RAPFISH ordination technique through the multidimensional scaling (MDS) method. The index and regional sustainability status of the healthy Batik Village were accessed using these methods. It also identified sensitive attributes affecting the sustainability index of social, economic, and ecological dimensions through the leverage analysis. The analysis results showed that the ecological dimension had the lowest index value (23.9) or in the poor category. The social and economic dimensions showed sufficient status with indices of 62.92 and 61.13, respectively. The policy implications for improving the sustainability status from 'sufficient' to 'good' need to manage the sensitive attributes of these three dimensions.

The present study proposed fabricating an industrially feasible zeolite membrane on an indigenously developed inexpensive tubular ceramic substrate. A type of zeolite framework, Faujasite, was deposited on the substrate using source materials, such as alumina and silica, by hydrothermal treatment. The membrane was characterised by XRD, FESEM, zeta potential, and contact angle analyses. Distinguishable physical and structural characteristics of the zeolite membrane from ceramic substrate substantiated a formation of the composite membrane. Further, the potentiality of the membrane was assessed on the removal of hexavalent chromium from synthetic wastewater at various operating parameters in a crossflow system. The prepared membrane offered a maximum chromium removal of 82% with a flux of 5.05 × 10-5 m3m-2s-1 at the operating conditions of 1,000 ppm concentration, 345 kPa pressure, and 1.11 × 10-6 m3s-1 crossflow rate. The membrane revealed its essential employment by providing a higher flux with better rejection than other membranes applied in chromium removal.

All over the world, countries are facing severe climate change and environmental degradation. Green banking has been developed and adopted as a banking ideology to reduce the adverse environmental impact of various polluting industries. The purpose of this study is to develop a multidimensional framework for green banking adoption which is in line with the United Nations-Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs) 2030. Green banking can play an important part in the attainment of the UN-SDGs 2030. This study demonstrates the dimensions of green banking adoption that can be adopted by banks in order to facilitate the environmental sustainability of the country. The study proposes the framework for green banking adoption based on the natural resource-based view (NRBV) of the firm. The first-order constructs in the framework have been derived from the green capabilities proposed in NRBV of the firm. These reflective constructs lead towards the second-order construct of green banking adoption. The proposed framework is developed and justified on a theoretical basis and through secondary data.
