This crude wastewater can contaminate the environment and food cycle; causing serious damage not only to the ecosystem but also to public health. Therefore, it is critical to treat this wastewater by improving an ecological and economical technology before discharging/reusing. However, researchers are exasperating to improve an efficient and effective technology for the refinement of the bulky industrial wastewater. Here, some state-of-the-art production techniques of the FC-CNC bionanosorbents have been proposed for the effective purification of bulky effluent via a continuous adsorption system. This technology is superior to other methods due to its lower cost, higher efficiency, innovative and beneficial nature, and high selectivity. Instead, the precursors (cellulose and clay) are more available, nontoxic, ecofriendly, biodegradable, thermally and mechanically stable, and have shown high surface area, porous structure, possessed substantial active binding sites that could have been busting their adsorption performances. Still there are several complications concerning the effective processing/modification of the main precursors, production techniques, mechanism, and mode of application while purifying the crude wastewater. Henceforth, this review paper would be devoted by concentrating the modification process, advance production methods, synergistic mechanism to support the mono and/or multilayer physisorption, chemisorption, diffusion/deep penetration, and mode of application addressing the bulky wastewater treatment. By discovering the gaps and suggesting impending instructions, this study aims to expand the fabrication, categorization, and application of the FC-CNC bionanoadsorbents.","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144192680","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}

Repair can occur formally or informally, such as through self-repair or community repair, but little is currently known about the interaction between formal and informal repair decisions. This paper analyses the effects of a repair subsidy for household appliances on formal and informal repair sectors in Flanders (Belgium). Employing a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model and household survey data, we find that a subsidy increases formal repair expenditure and employment while also slightly increasing paid informal repair activities, indicating a complementary relationship. However, repair subsidies may crowd out unpaid informal repair among households primarily motivated by cost-saving. Nonetheless, unpaid informal repair decisions remain mainly influenced by household characteristics, risk preferences, environmental values, and perceived habits. This paper is the first to combine macroeconomic modelling with survey data on formal and informal repair decisions. We recommend policymakers to complement repair subsidies with strategies to formalise undeclared informal repair activities and fostering the development of repair skills, enabling repair as a circular strategy that contributes to a just circular transition.","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144201404","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}

While liquid-based lithium-ion batteries are widely adopted, concerns over safety, environmental impact, and the scarcity of critical raw materials have prompted a shift toward solid-state alternatives. With higher energy density, greater inherent stability, and improved sustainability, solid-state batteries present a compelling alternative. However, quantitative assessments of their environmental impacts across different life cycle phases remain limited. Existing studies focus on transportation applications using lab-scale production data, leaving the life cycle impacts of solid-state batteries for large-scale energy storage underexplored. This study conducts a life cycle assessment to evaluate the environmental performance of pyrite-based solid-state batteries with scaled-up production for energy storage applications, considering cradle-to-gate and cradle-to-use phases. Key environmental impact indicators, including global warming potential, ecotoxicity, smoke and fog, and crustal scarcity indicator, are analyzed across five scenarios incorporating different battery performance metrics. Additionally, a sustainable and lower-impact development path is proposed by linking environmental performance with battery use-phase parameters across various application scales, from general-purpose storage to grid-level systems. Results indicate that under the U.S. energy mix, the global warming potential can be reduced by 35%, while overall environmental impacts across the selected categories can be lowered by 50% through optimized energy sourcing, improved battery chemistry, and strategic usage patterns.","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144192947","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}

In this work, the relative importance of factors such as food service type, outlet size, seasonal and weekday variation, and length of measurement period for monitoring originally edible and total FW is explored. We provide the first sample size estimates needed for national-level monitoring, and take the length of the observation period carefully into account and whether the food service type, outlet size, and regional variation are controlled for, and what size of a change in FW one wants to be able to observe. Two datasets collected as part of the Finnish national monitoring system were used. The first consisted of 192 two-week measurements from outlets of various sizes. The second consisted of three long-term (1.5–2 year) monitoring efforts. The food service type is by far the most important factor, explaining 66 % and 54 % of the variance in edible and total FW, respectively. The next factor is monthly variation (13 % and 10 %), municipal level variation (5 % and 9 %), and weekday-variation (6 % and 5 %), with the outlet size being relatively unimportant (2 % and 8 %). At the smallest, a sample size of n = 68 is needed to observe a change of 30 % in the total national FW levels. With two-week measurements n = 72 is sufficient, highlighting the fact that longer measurement periods are not resource efficient, because between-outlet variation tends to be greater than within-outlet variation. The results can be used to develop national data collection in other countries, to optimize the limited resources available for monitoring, and to improve the comparability of measurements between years.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"517 ","pages":"Article 145889"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144189002","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}

As compared to traditional composites production technologies, FW enables the achievement of cost and environmental impacts reduction. In this framework, the present paper aims at developing a comprehensive model for the evaluation of process time, cost and environmental impacts of filament winding of FRP composite, at different process parameters, such as winding angle and speed, part design obtained varying mandrel length and/or mandrel diameter, and material characteristics, such as towpreg bandwidth. To this purpose, process simulations were carried out to assess the effect of process parameters and material variables on process time, material and energy use. A statistical approach was used to predict these outputs for a generic FRP component at different parameters. Furthermore, Life Cycle Assessment and Life Cycle Costing spreadsheets were developed to quantify the environmental and economic sustainability of the FRP structure. The results have proven the excellent capability of the model in predicting winding time, in particular R², adjusted R², Mean Squared Error (MSE) are respectively equal to 99.48%, 99.33%, and 0.133 min².

Consequently, more cost-effective technologies have been sought for decades to remove the contaminants from contaminated water. As metals and metalloids are nondegradable, adsorption based on low-cost materials has garnered broad interest for its cost-effectiveness, easy operation, and lower environmental impact, especially in developing countries or underserved communities. This review encapsulates the latest progress and the state of the technology on the type, preparation and applications of low-cost adsorbents ranging from natural minerals, biosorbents, materials, agricultural wastes, and modified natural materials to synthetic composite adsorbents. The focus was placed on the technical feasibility, economic effectiveness, pros and cons, as well as influencing factors for treating a range of heavy metals (e.g., lead, zinc, and copper) and metalloids (e.g., arsenic, selenium, tellurium, and antimony) in water. In addition, the underlying adsorption mechanisms were discussed and the technical practicality and economic viability are analyzed by considering the pros and cons as well as relevant environmental factors. Overall, low-cost adsorbents may offer an effective alternative for remediation of water contaminated with metal(loid)s, especially for underdeveloped communities and for non-potable water treatment. Modified or composite adsorbents composed of multiple low-cost materials have shown great promise.
