... procedures were initially classified in eleven categories. Each category was awarded a score, ranging from 1 to 4, according to its potential to generate waste, as defined in Table 2. The importance of each category for this study was further defined by multiplying this waste generation potential by the frequency with which the procedure occurred. ...

Rhizosphere organic chemicals response and its role on Cr/Se adsorption are of great importance to understand Cr/Se bioavailability in Cr-contaminated soil with the application of Se. In the current work, the processes were carried out using rhizobox experiment (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis Makino). The results showed that in soil contamin...
The article provides a study concerning possible future developments in biowaste management in Latvia. In the article, planning, impact assessment, implementation and improvement phases, as well as the required improvements in these phases of biowaste management, are analysed. Furthermore, the problems faced by the energy sector with resource scarc...
The growth of waste generation is a global problem. Developing effective waste management methods is challenging for companies and the government. This research aims to provide a global perspective regarding scientific research on zero-waste management and sustainable consumption by identifying years of evolution, the most relevant and influential...
Indirect carbonation of steel slag is an effective method for CO2 storage, reducing emissions, and promoting cleaner production in the steel industry. However, challenges remain, such as low Ca²⁺ leaching rates and slag management complexities arising from variations in mineral compositions. To address this, a high-temperature modification process...
The quest for a chemical surfactant substitute has been fuelled by increased environmental awareness. The benefits that biosurfactants present like biodegradability, and biocompatibility over their chemical and synthetic counterparts has contributed immensely to their popularity and use in various industries such as petrochemicals, mining, metallur...

... In order to develop a preliminary list of general components, different organizational management models and models related to business sustainability were carefully studied, and different components that some of these models covered were enlisted, as shown in Table 1. (Heras and Arana 2010;World Health Organization 2010;Van der Wiele et al. 1996;Sustainable Business Association 2007;Samuelsson and Nilsson 2002;Khalili et al. 2015;Geiser 2001;Fresner 1998;Fust and Walker 2007; European Foundation for Quality management 2013; Engardio et al. 2007;Deif 2011;Calvo-Mora et al. 2012;Bocken et al. 2014;Bocken et al. 2013;Seidel et al. 2010;Almeida et al. 2015;Department of Environment Malaysia, Ministry of Natural Resources, and Environment Malaysia, First Edition 2011;Fernandes et al. 1999). Based on this review, five general components and 44 sub-components were identified as main components of sustainability in petrochemical industries. ...
Sustainability comprises three pillars of social, environmental, and economic aspects. Petrochemical industry has a great inter-related complex impact on social and economic development of societies and adverse impact on almost all environmental aspects and resource depletion in many countries, which make sustainability a crucial issue for petrochemical industries. This study was conducted to propose components of sustainability considerations in management of petrochemical industries.
A combination of exploratory study—to prepare a preliminary list of components of sustainable business in petrochemical industries based on review of literature and Delphi—to obtain experts’ view on this preliminary list and provide a detailed list of components and sub-components that should be addressed to bring sustainability to petrochemical industries, were used.
Two sets of components were provided. First general components, which include stakeholders (staffs, society, and environment) with four sub-components, financial resources with 11 sub-components, improvement of design and processes with nine sub-components, policy and strategy of cleaner production with seven sub-components and leadership with seven sub-components. The second operational components included raw material supply and preparation with five, synthesis with ten, product separation and refinement with nine, product handling and storage with five, emission abatement with eight, and improvement of technology and equipment with 16 sub-components.
