Carbon emissions from end-use energy consumption have been increasing for a long time and have become a major factor in the growth of regional carbon emissions, which has attracted widespread attention. The complex geographic-related climate situation and various development levels have created...

Here, we use an input distance function approach to determine the shadow price of carbon dioxide (CO2), technical efficiency and potential for emission reductions of the industrial sectors of China and Korea, and impact of carbon trading on costs. Data from 20 industries in the manufacturing...

Recent literature highlights the contributions of global energy sectors to anthropogenic CH4 emissions and calls for immediate actions. However, it fails to explain the fugitive CH4 emissions induced by the intermediate and final trade. This paper aims to trace fugitive CH4 emissions via global...

Bioenergy from crop residues is one of the prevailing sustainable energy sources owing to the abundant reserves worldwide. Amongst a wide variety of energy conversion technologies, crop residue gasification has been regarded as promising owing to its higher energy efficiency than that of direct...
