Pore structures of pozzolanic materials allow understanding of their effects on pore parameters of cement-based composites. In this study, analytical solutions of surface porosity of waste brick powder (WBP) specimens generated from varying milling conditions were constructed using segmentation, watershed, and threshold algorithms. Scanning electron microscopy was combined with simulations of pore structures from Gwyddion leading to multi-scale driven surface porosity solutions. These methods for surface porosity characterisation of pozzolans can be boiled down to calls for sustainable construction. By implementing analytical methods, the porosity properties of WBP subjected to various milling conditions are successfully observed for the first time. Overall, the presented simulations using all the three methods proved that increasing the mass of clay bricks fed in ball mill reduced the fineness levels of WBP and increased the surface porosity values. It was shown that the porosity values from all the three methods ranged from 17% to 51%. The watershed simulations were noticed to underestimate the surface porosity values in comparison with threshold and segmentation simulations. The results on mean pore areas, number of pores, pore densities, pore volumes and mean pore sizes of WBP specimens were quite different from surface porosity results as variations became more evident for all three methods. The results from this research have highlighted that the proposed analytical solutions are fast and efficient in evaluating the overall behaviour of WBP in cement-based composites and represent reference points for engineering researchers involved in studies on supplementary cementitious materials.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100960,"journal":{"name":"Next Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949823623000132/pdfft?md5=b8556367c655098905839d33d4174547&pid=1-s2.0-S2949823623000132-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138564376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper has provided a new case for a better understanding of the asymmetric effects of demographic dividend on environmental sustainability in African countries. To this end, we employed Driscoll-Kraay standard error and Instrumental Variable Generalized Method of Moments (IV-GMM) for a panel dataset of 32 African countries from 1996 to 2018. The empirical findings show that demographic dividend deteriorates environmental sustainability via an increase in the ecological footprint. The results also show that urbanization, globalization and renewable energy reduce ecological footprint. However, economic growth and ICT increase ecological footprint. Lastly, our findings highlight that economic growth, ICT, urbanization and FDI are channels through which demographic dividend affects environmental sustainability.

However, ZIFs-derived carbon-based catalysts often exhibit octahedral particle morphology and thus complex post-treatment processes were usually required to modulate the pore structure of the membrane electrodes to enhance the utilization of metal-site sites in the cathode ORR of fuel cells. Herein, a highly efficient catalyst with Fe/Co dual metal sites anchored onto N-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was synthesized by one-step calcination based on the explosion effect of ClO<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup> ion and Fe-Co bimetal coordination interaction, named FeCo-N-CNT. The introduction of ClO<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup> ions and Fe/Co bimetals gives the catalyst a dense reachable active site and a hierarchical porous structure. It is worth noting that the half-wave potential of the FeCo-N-CNT reached 0.9 V in an alkaline medium and showed good cyclic stability. More impressively, the FeCo-N-CNT also shows excellent ORR catalytic performance in both acid and neutral electrolytes, with a maximum power density 1.2 and 1.4 times higher than Fe-N-PC and Co-N-PC with single-metal sites in hydrogen fuel cells, respectively.

This scenario is the result of incentive and investment policies implemented in the last decades, placing Brazil in a prominent position in the liquid biofuels production chain, bringing important representation for the country in the international market. However, economic and political crises caused by the coronavirus pandemic and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine have caused, among other difficulties, production fluctuations and concerns about the world’s energy supply. Such factors have challenged the liquid biofuels market in Brazil, affecting the Brazilian biofuels policy, the RenovaBio, and generating uncertainties in this sector. This paper gathers a comprehensive overview of the current panorama of crop-based liquid biofuels in Brazil, and how the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Eastern Europe have affected the ethanol and biodiesel industry in the country. Evidence shows that more than ever the Brazilian government needs to intervene so that the liquid biofuels sector can resume its steady development and evolution, particularly by appeasing the unnecessary competition between biodiesel and green diesel, to foster the country’s potential to be more efficient in clean energy production and more independent from fossil fuels.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100960,"journal":{"name":"Next Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949823623000028/pdfft?md5=d4e10699f6d09fa1027aac5d28e9a455&pid=1-s2.0-S2949823623000028-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134917236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
