Abstract Waste has emerged as a pressing concern for the environment, primarily stemming from processes of urbanization and industrialization. The substantial volumes waste generated pose serious threat to they spread out harmful substances in soil release methane emissions into atmosphere. To effectively address this issue, study explores impact municipal industrial waste, well waste-related innovation on load capacity factor (LCF) 2005 2020. For purpose, augmented mean group method half panel jackknife causality approach were conducted by using data 17 European countries. empirical findings show that (1) curve (LCC) hypothesis is confirmed; (2) have detrimental effect LCF; (3) management practices no discernible LCF. In light these findings, emphasizes importance efficient countries exploit potential valuable resource rather than cause pollution.

Abstract In the contemporary global landscape, understanding nexus between financial inclusion and natural resource abundance is crucial, especially for resource-rich nations. This study uses diagnostic tests method of moments quantile regression to examines this interplay across Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, India, Russia, United States. We find that achieving significantly challenging countries heavily rely on resources. Diversified income sources equitable wealth distribution are essential mitigate these challenges. Additionally, we identify a positive correlation economic development inclusion, highlighting mutually reinforcing relationship growth inclusivity. Our research also reveals notable link adopting renewable energy improving suggesting environmental responsibility accessibility intertwined. Foreign direct investment has nuanced impacts adding depth our understanding. Overall, stable from resources diversified emerge as key promoters inclusion. These insights advocate regionally specific policies lay solid foundation future informed policymaking address challenges advance sustainable development. Graphical abstract

The explosion of plastic waste generation, approaching 400 million tons per year, has created a worldwide environmental crisis that conventional management systems cannot handle. This problem can be solved through gasification, which converts nonrecyclable plastics to syngas with potential applications in electricity generation and synthetic fuel production. study investigates whether production from by gasification is environmentally economically feasible. Environmental impacts were assessed life cycle assessment framework using impact approach, ReCiPe 2016, 10 midpoint/endpoint categories. Midpoint results the baseline scenario grid-mix revealed climate change (GWP) 775 kg CO2 equivalent fossil depletion (FDP) 311 oil ton waste. Meanwhile, solar showed GWP as 435 FDP 166 Switching energy cut 44% 47%, respectively. However, tradeoffs higher human toxicity (HTP) marine ecotoxicity (METP) due upstream material extraction renewable systems, Among performance drivers, inputs operating materials identified sensitivity uncertainty analyses. Syngas plant 50 day yield sales revenue USD 4.79 million, excluding 4.05 operational expenditures. Financial indicators like 2.06-year payback period, 5.32 net present value over 20-year project life, 38.2% internal rate return indicate profitability system. An external cost analysis emissions-related costs 26.43 processed, dominated NOx emissions. Despite these costs, avoided less landfilling/incineration support gasification. Gasification should promoted subsidy incentive policymakers for wider adoption integration into municipal systems. Findings show it adapted global sustainability goals circular economy principles while delivering strong economic returns. findings also contribute several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), instance, SDG 7 promoting clean technologies, 12 implementing economy, 13 reducing greenhouse gas (GHG)

The main aim of this study is to perform a bibliometric analysis (BA) examining the use renewable energy sources (RESs) in agriculture. To fulfill aim, several research tasks were outlined: (1) analyze distribution publications by year regarding application RESs agriculture (agriculture as consumer and producer RESs); (2) identify most cited articles area; (3) determine which countries have made significant contributions field through their outputs; (4) highlight subject areas linked RES agriculture; (5) explore various practical aspects implementing agricultural practices; (6) suggest potential future directions domain. Both quantitative qualitative methods employed tackle these tasks. data collection process was completed on 18 July 2024, using Scopus database access peer-reviewed sources. After filtering results, total 317 journal conference papers selected for further analysis. study’s key finding reveals that while are already being integrated into agriculture, there still notable lack comprehensive critical areas. Specifically, it remains unclear whether adoption leads enhanced operational efficiency, better cost-effectiveness, improvements environmental sustainability.
