Moreover, the reaction rate <em>λ</em> of PFOA exhibited minimal fluctuation in HCO₃⁻ type groundwater, indicating lower competition from HCO₃⁻ ions for occupancy site and resulting in less PFOA repulsed to the lower reactive region (with lower Fe²⁺ and microorganism cells concentrations). Furthermore, the retardation effect for PFOA was boosted by secondary minerals-microbe interaction and joint adsorption. HCO₃⁻ facilitated the minerals-microbes interaction, leading to increased formation of <em>β</em>-FeOOH and improved retardation effect for PFOA. Additionally, the functional microorganisms <em>Pseudomonas</em> and <em>Delftia</em> were combined to drive the Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ cycle and PFOA biochemical transformation.

This study evaluated the use of volatiles from sugarcane bagasse (SCB) and iron ore tailings (IOT) to the synergistic promotion of carbon deposition, H₂ production and conversion of weak magnetic iron oxides in strong magnetic iron phases. The experiments were carried out at 400, 600, 800, and 1000 °C with different SCB/IOT ratios under an N₂ atmosphere.

The combination of 600 °C and higher SCB/IOT ratio resulted in a product with 96.7% magnetite, 98% magnetic fraction recovery, and 3.5% deposited carbon. The use of lower SCB/IOT ratio provided an increase in H₂ production. Regardless of the mass ratio, heating the IOT and SCB simultaneously up to 1000 °C led to significant mineralogical transformations, reaching reduced phases such as wüstite, fayalite and metallic iron, which impaired magnetic separation efficiency.

The existing literature extensively covers the principles and benefits of CE, but there is a notable gap in understanding how these practices are implemented at a local level. Specifically, there is a lack of detailed insights into the localized challenges, adaptation processes, and contextual factors influencing the adoption of circular practices. Additionally, the implications for different types of stakeholders and the effectiveness of localized strategies remain underexplored. By employing causal loop diagrams to depict system dynamics, interactions, and connections inherent in the transition to a CE, this research delves into the significance of understanding the complexities of circularity within a specific localized context. We draw qualitative data from semi-structured interviews and workshops with participants from key stakeholders within the textile and clothing sector in the Southwest of England. We find that legislation has a different impact on multinational corporations (MNCs) and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in their CE engagement. We also find that, while the flow of materials from MNCs to SMEs fosters regional innovation and knowledge-sharing, it does not always facilitate inter-organizational learning. Finally, both MNCs and SMEs recognize the CE’s potential for job creation, which highlights the need for more effective knowledge exchange strategies between businesses of different sizes. The study concludes that balancing CE principles with profit-driven pressures remains a significant challenge for both those founded on circular principles and those who are gradually incorporating CE principles into their organisation.","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"95 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142601344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, fresh manure exerted fatal and irreversible inhibition on seed germination. However, after the thermophilic phase (7 days), the inhibition of seed germination transitioned from irreversible to reversible and recoverable.

This study first comprehensively explores the decoupling status of carbon emissions and economic growth at the provincial level. Moreover, we focus on the embodied carbon emissions and value added across multiregional supply chains within China during 2012–2017 from both demand and supply perspectives. Results illustrate that the decoupling status of 22 provinces (e.g., Beijing, Shandong, and Xinjiang) displays diversity across different perspectives. Furthermore, the different multi-perspective decoupling statuses of critical sectors (e.g., the <em>production and distribution of electric power and heat power</em> sector) underscore the necessity for multi-side measures to reconcile carbon emission reduction with economic growth. Notably, this study identifies the decoupling status of most interregional pairs (i.e., two regions with carbon emissions and value added flows) are undesirable.

This study conducted a comparative life cycle assessment between a proposed cableway system for the city of Trieste, Italy and its current car transportation mode. The analysis considered both daily operational profiles and passenger occupancy rates of the cableway system. Drawing from similar cableway systems worldwide, it was calculated that the proposed Trieste cableway would accommodate 2007 daily passengers, on average. Results from the environmental assessment revealed that the cableway's operational phase had by far the greatest impact on all environmental categories, followed by its construction and by land clearance. Additionally, the use phase was found to be the major cause for most biodiversity loss, particularly towards terrestrial ecosystems. Comparisons of life cycle GHG emissions between the cableway and car transportation indicated that the cableway system would be a preferable option if the daily average passengers would reach at least 3,908, which is almost double than the expected ones. Furthermore, the cableway system exhibited larger environmental impacts across most categories compared to current car transportation.
