This study evaluates the sustainability of immobilized acid-adapted microalgal technology for acid mine drainage (AMD) remediation using emergy and carbon footprint analysis. It quantitatively demonstrates the benefits and challenges of mic…

Ebersold F.

This paper analyzes which greenhouse gas emissions are technically and economically avoidable in corporate carbon neutrality strategies, offering insights on reduction prioritization and the balance between offsets and internal reductions.

Maraseni T.N.

Compares greenhouse gas emissions from farm inputs in southeast Queensland, Australia. Uses region-specific emission factors to evaluate different input types.

Aguiar A.d.O.e.

This paper presents a case study of greenhouse gas inventory practices at a Brazilian university, analyzing methodologies and challenges for carbon accounting in educational institutions.

Xie X.

This paper presents a calculation method for greenhouse gas emissions from LNG terminals. It likely covers Scope 1 and 2 emissions and possibly upstream sources. The methodology includes specific calculation steps and emission factors.

This study presents a detailed bottom-up carbon footprint analysis of single-use technologies (SUT) in biopharmaceutical manufacturing at the 2000 L scale, based on physical disassembly. It finds that SUT's CO2 footprint is significantly hi…

Adiba Shafique, Mohammad Tahir

This paper systematically reviews the use of digital twin (DT) systems for whole-life carbon (WLC) assessment in UK building retrofit towards net-zero targets. Analyzing 42 academic papers and 20 policy documents via PRISMA, it finds curren…

This study conducts a cradle-to-grave LCA of six emergency exit sign technologies (photoluminescent, electric, and hybrid). Results show that photoluminescent signs, especially aluminum-based ones, achieve substantially lower global warming…

Jie Yang, Sheng-hao ZHANG, Jixin Cheng +1

This paper empirically analyzes the impact of digital participation on household carbon footprint inequality in China. Using CFPS data, it finds that digital participation widens the carbon emission gap among households. The results suggest…
