“…It is advised to expand work on GEP, GPI, and ECCB toward other developing nations within SMEs (Dangelico et al, 2017; H. Wang & Bernell, 2013). Firms must incorporate green capabilities by pursuing green environmental manufacturing practices to appeal green consumers to achieve a competitive edge, customer loyalty, and green image (Deif, 2011; Follows & Jobber, 2000; Ghazali et al, 2017; Kahraman & Kazançoğlu, 2019; Pampanelli et al, 2014; Rehman et al, 2016; Singh et al, 2019; Xie, Zhu, & Wang, 2019). Based on the above discussion and theoretical support, this study sought to add a shred of empirical evidence by revealing the relationships among GMP, GPI, and ECCB with the following hypotheses.H1 : GMP is positively correlated with ECCB. H2 : GMP is positively correlated with GPI. H3 : GPI is positively correlated with ECCB. H4 : GPI mediates the relationships between GMP and ECCB.…”

To pursuit sustainability in all business operations is a notable challenge for firms to survive in today's competitive environment. Customers are the important stakeholders who are becoming mindful regarding the environment-friendly actions of the organizations. This study investigates the impact of green manufacturing practices (GMP) within two streams-pollution prevention practices (PPP) and product stewardship practices (PSP)-on ecological conscious consumer behavior (ECCB) along with the mediation influence of green product innovation (GPI). Data were gathered from Chinese consumers from those who prefer environment-friendly products. The findings affirmed the positive nexus between GMP and ECCB. Second, a positive mediation influence of GPI was observed between GMP and ECCB. The multidimensional analysis revealed the positive relationships of PPP and PSP on ECCB, respectively. The findings furnish implications for green production on how organizations can accomplish stakeholder engagement incorporating green practices-GMP, PPP, PSP, and GPI-in their manufacturing operations. This study further suggests future avenues for academicians and practitioners.

“…This by-product is normally incinerated or dumped without control, which results in the production of large amounts of waste and pollution [2]. Several researchers have focused on different alternatives for using almond shell wastes based on their potential uses as biomass to produce renewable energy [3]; as a source of organic biopesticides [4], heavy metal adsorbents [5], dye adsorbents [6], growing media [7], the preparation of activated carbons [8] and xylo-oligosaccharides [9], antioxidants [10] or as additives in eco-friendly composites [11][12][13].…”

Polyester-based biocomposites containing INZEA F2® biopolymer and almond shell powder (ASP) at 10 and 25 wt % contents with and without two different compatibilizers, maleinized linseed oil and Joncryl ADR 4400®, were prepared by melt blending in an extruder, followed by injection molding. The effect of fine (125–250 m) and coarse (500–1000 m) milling sizes of ASP was also evaluated. An improvement in elastic modulus was observed with the addition of< both fine and coarse ASP at 25 wt %. The addition of maleinized linseed oil and Joncryl ADR 4400 produced some compatibilizing effect at low filler contents while biocomposites with a higher amount of ASP still presented some gaps at the interface by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Some decrease in thermal stability was shown which was related to the relatively low thermal stability and disintegration of the lignocellulosic filler. The added modifiers provided some enhanced thermal resistance to the final biocomposites. Thermal analysis by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis suggested the presence of two different polyesters in the polymer matrix, with one of them showing full disintegration after 28 and 90 days for biocomposites containing 25 and 10 wt %, respectively, under composting conditions. The developed biocomposites have been shown to be potential polyester-based matrices for use as compostable materials at high filler contents.

“…To increase the separation efficiency, NF technology is incorporated into the conventional downstream processing for purification of XOS. XOS recovery of 74.5% was achieved by using a combination of UF (50 kDa) and NF (1 kDa) [60]. To increase the XOS recovery, another NF membrane (500 Da) was used to achieve a high recovery of 95% and purity of 99% at operating pressure of 20 bar and temperature of 50°C [61].…”

Saccharide production is critical to the development of biotechnology in the field of food and biofuel. The extraction of saccharide from biomass-based hydrolysate mixtures has become a trend due to low cost and abundant biomass reserves. Compared to conventional methods of fractionation and recovery of saccharides, nanofiltration (NF) has received considerable attention in recent decades because of its high selectivity and low energy consumption and environmental impact. In this review the advantages and challenges of NF based technology in the separation of saccharides are critically evaluated. Hybrid membrane processes, i.e., combining NF with ultrafiltration, can complement each other to provide an efficient approach for removal of unwanted solutes to obtain higher purity saccharides. However, use of NF membrane separation technology is limited due to irreversible membrane fouling that results in high capital and operating costs. Future development of NF membrane technology should therefore focus on improving material stability, antifouling ability and saccharide targeting selectivity, as well as on engineering aspects such as process optimisation and membrane module design.
