The capture of CO2 from flue gas after combustion using solid sorbents is one of the efficient options for reducing CO2 emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants. To satisfy the requirement of large quantities flue gas treatment, the CO2 capture capacities of the solid sorbents must be...

The requirement for long-duration human operation in a confined space has made removal of low concentration CO2 a critical technology. The incorporation of organic amines into a porous support is thought to be a promising approach, but the low amine utilization ratio and the loss of amine...

Wood ash, which is recognized as an environmental pollutant, is tried as a new material for CO2 capture in this work. Five wood ash samples obtained from different raw materials were chosen, and an experimental demonstration of the CO2 capture performances of these wood ash samples was present...

Status is a valued workplace resource that facilitates career success, yet little is known regarding whether and how cultural orientation affects status attainment. We integrate status characteristics theory with the literature on individualism and collectivism and propose a cultural patterning...

Although the idea of brand concepts has been around for a while, very little research addresses how brand concepts may influence consumer responses to corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities. Four studies reveal that communicating the CSR actions of a luxury brand concept causes a...

Results from four studies uncover a relatively automatic cultural congruency mechanism that can influence evaluations of culturally charged brand extensions, overriding the impact of perceived fit on extension evaluations. Culturally congruent extensions (i.e., when both the brand and the...
