Photocatalytic performance of Co3O4/Na-Alginate nanocomposite for the dynamic removal of direct red 31 dye: Degradation and mechanical pathways
Nanomaterials in the environment: applications and effects
This study examines the use of Co3O4 nanocomposite as a photo-catalyst in aqueous solution for photocatalytic degradation of dyes under UV. It has been observed that substrate concentrations, catalyst, pH, oxidant present and temperature, effect on dye degradation. The characterization of...
Research on the impact of digital inclusive finance development on carbon emissions—Based on the double fixed effects model
Environmental Management and Policies
With the accelerated global warming and the continuous rise of sea level, drastically reducing carbon emissions has gradually become a necessary action for major industrialized countries. Based on the panel data of Chinese cities from 2011 to 2022, this paper empirically examines the heterogeneous...
Exploring the novel environmentally friendly dye degradation mechanism of NiO-Polypyrrole polymer nanocomposites in degrading the organic pollutants under sunlight
Water and Wastewater Treatment
According to estimates, around 15-50% of textile dyes fail to adhere to the fabric during the dyeing process, resulting in their discharge into wastewater. This wastewater is often used for agricultural irrigation in impoverished nations which harms plant germination and development. In this study...
Enhancing the European Space Agency’s Climate Change Initiative Soil Moisture Product over China
Ecology, environmental change and management
Soil moisture heavily influences the energy exchange between land and the atmosphere, and it plays an important role in ecological systems. Quantitatively acquiring soil moisture information is important for agricultural production, ecological protection and other processes. The current range of...
Research on the impact of green logistics on carbon emission intensity of transportation industry
Environmental Management and Policies
With the serious challenge of global climate change, the Chinese government has proposed the "dual carbon" goals. In this context, the importance of green logistics as an effective way to reduce emissions in the transportation industry is becoming more and more prominent. This paper aims to explore...
Reviewing Biopolymers: Pioneering Sustainable Alternatives to Traditional Plastics
Emerging pollutants
The global demand for plastic has risen, driven by plastic-based goods, exerting strain on the existing waste treatment infrastructure. Plastics typically consist of synthetic and semi-synthetic materials, mainly composed of polymers. Plastics include lightweight, cost-effective, easily...
Reliable Air Quality Assessment in Dynamic Environments using Reward-learning Routing with Flying MANET Technology
Air Quality
Air pollution poses significant threats to ecosystems, atmosphere, and the health of both humans and wildlife. It is primarily caused by industrial and chemical pollutants, leading to deterioration in air, water, and soil quality. As a result, effective air quality monitoring is crucial for...
Spatial correlation network structure of carbon productivity from the livestock sector in China and its driving factors: a perspective of social network analysis
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Exploring the spatial correlation network structure of provincial livestock carbon productivity and its driving factors can provide new policy perspectives for realizing the synergy of regional pollution and carbon reduction. This study constructs 2006-2021 panel data models by social network...
Study on the Impact of China's Digital Economy on Agricultural Carbon Emissions
Ecology, environmental change and management
Under the background of China's “double carbon” goal, digital economy has become an important way to reduce carbon emissions in China. This paper utilizes the provincial panel data of China from 2012 to 2022, introduces the perspective of agricultural science and technology innovation, empirically...
Can customer ESG performance improve corporate carbon emission productivity? --An empirical study from listed companies in China
Ecology, environmental change and management
With the increasing awareness of sustainable development, the ESG performance has become a focal point for both companies and their stakeholders. This study, Chinese A-share listed companies as an example, constructs a sample of paired enterprises and customers to examine the impact of customer ESG...
