Due to its adaptability in being relevant the economies of different countries, industries, and research fields, creative economy (CE), a driving force behind national for sustainable development, has recently garnered attention academic community. This examines intellectual structure this field using Scopus database subject area business, management accounting. study uses bibliometric analysis, cutting-edge rigorous technique exploration scientific data. The employed methodology entails an organized open procedure broken down into four phases: (1) search criteria; (2) selection documents; (3) software data pre-processing; (4) analysis results. We use two approaches learn about their by evaluating performance observing various connections through mapping. findings indicate that is burgeoning research, with 687 articles, 1340 authors, 64 nations represented. In addition, economy, cultural industry, human capital, management, entrepreneurship, business models are topics. several implications because it offers up-to-date comprehensive overview trends topic, making helpful tool researchers. It also identifies gaps literature lead possible lines investigation future studies.

Chemical upcycling of PVC-containing plastic wastes by thermal degradation and catalysis in a chlorine-rich environment

Environmental Pollution, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 342, С. 123074 - 123074

Chlorine (Cl)-containing chemicals, including hydrogen chloride, generated during thermal degradation of PVC and corresponding mixture impede the chemical recycling polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-containing plastic wastes. While upgrading plastic-derived vapors, presence Cl-containing chemicals may deactivate catalysts. Accordingly, herein, catalytic pyrolysis vapor prepared from a PVC-containing polyolefin is performed using fixed-bed reactor comprising zeolites. Among H-forms zeolites (namely, ZSM-5, Y, β, chabazite) used in this study, higher yield gas products composed hydrocarbons with lower carbon numbers obtained H-ZSM-5, thus indicating further decomposition to C1–C4 on acid Although formation aromatic compounds better product distributions can be adjusted by modifying acidic properties via alteration Si/Al molar ratio, maximum yields (60.8%) olefins (64.7%) are achieved ratio 50. Additionally, metal ion exchange H-ZSM-5 conducted. It reveals that highest 1.74 wt% cobalt (Co)-substituted acquired selection an appropriate concentration adjustment. Nevertheless, introduction excess Co into surface decreases cracking activity, thereby implying highly distributed required achieve excellent activity. The addition also types more Lewis sites compared Bronsted selectively produced naphthenes over paraffins aromatics. Upgrading waste-derived small hydrocarbon molecules was successfully Co-substituted H-ZSM-5. proposed approach feasible process produce valuable petroleum-replacing mixed wastes, contributing closed loops for upcycling

Nanotechnology in Plastic Degradation

Biosciences Biotechnology Research Asia, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 20(1), С. 53 - 68

Опубликована: Март 30, 2023

Plastics pose a huge threat to the environment. Plastic accumulation in land and seas is now world’s most terrorising problem, mainly because of its non-degrading character. degradation has always been next impossible concept field science, but nanotechnology provides revolutionary modern way solve problem plastic One great advantages nanoparticles that we can increase decrease rate biodegradation depending on our needs. Nanoparticles enhance polythene capacity microorganisms by altering their metabolic cycles. Numerous studies showed conclusively incorporation enhances ability degrade materials. Even though bio degradable plastics are nowadays produced large quantities substitute materials, they fail match brittleness plastics. Biodegradable have poor thermal, mechanical low gas barrier qualities, which main drawbacks. To overcome this, incorporated into biopolymers. If an appropriate balance between nanotechnology, microbiology biotechnology found, be done economically feasibly all areas.
