Properties and Characterization of Two Clays Raw Material from Mountain District (West of Côte d’Ivoire) for Use in Low-Carbon Cements

This work was devoted to the study of the physico-chemical properties of two clay minerals from the Mountain District (West Côte d'Ivoire) referenced ME1 and ME2. These samples were characterized by the experimental techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Infrared spectroscopy (IR), Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES), Differential Thermal Analysis and Thermogravimetry (DTA-TG), Brunauer, Emett and Teller method (BET), laser particle size analysis and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The main results of these analyses reveal that the two clay samples mainly contain quartz (52.91% for ME1 and 51.72% for ME2), kaolinite (36.60% for ME1 and 41.6% for ME2) and associated phases, namely goethite and hematite (13.47% for ME1 and 11.00% for ME2). The specific surface values obtained for samples ME1 and ME2 are 34.78 m2/g and 29.18 m2/g respectively. The results obtained show that the samples studied belong to the kaolinite family. After calcination, they could have good pozzolanic activity and therefore be used in the manufacture of low-carbon cements.

Does China's digital economy contribute to low-carbon transition?

The digital economy,as a new emerging economic form,has become an important power for realizing Chinese-style modernization and promoting green development in China.This paper measures the digital economy and low-carbon transition index based on the data of 30 provinces in China from 2013 to 2020 and analyzes the mechanism and path of the digital economy affecting low-carbon transition using the fixed effect panel data model and the threshold effect model.It is found that,(1)The digital economy and low-carbon transition in China are various in different regions,with characteristics of being unbalanced and insufficient.(2)The digital economy significantly promotes low-carbon transition,with the greatest influence in the Central region,followed by the Eastern region and the Western region.Under different dimensions,the development of informatization and digital transactions promote low-carbon transition,but the development of the internet plays an inhibiting role.(3)The higher the degree of urbanization and environmental regulation,the greater the influence of the digital economy on low-carbon transition.

Effect of ZrC Modified Graphite on Structure and Properties of Low-carbon Al_(2)O_(3)-C Refractories

To address the issues of reduced performance and shortened lifespan during the low-carbonizating process of Al_(2)O_(3)-C refractories,nano-crystalline ZrC modified graphite was prepared using Zr powder and flake graphite as raw materials,with NaCl and NaF mixed salt serving as the medium.The flake graphite was gradually replaced by ZrC modified graphite in the preparation of Al_(2)O_(3)-C refractories,and its impact on the material’s structure and properties was investigated.The results indicate that,compared to samples with only flake graphite,the introduction of 1 mass%to 5 mass%nano-crystalline ZrC modified graphite can significantly enhance the mechanical performance of low-carbon Al_(2)O_(3)-C refractories.When 5 mass%ZrC modified graphite is added,the mechanical properties of the samples are optimal,with the cold modulus of rupture and elastic modulus reaching 22.5 MPa and 65.0 GPa,respectively.

Performance Evaluation of Low-Carbon and Clean Transformation of China’s Coal Economy

In China,the oversupply of coal occurred in 2009,and from that year onwards,China’s coal economy began a low-carbon and clean transformation.Evaluating transformation performance is the research goal of this paper.The data collection for this paper includes data on deep processing of Chinese coal products from 2009 to 2020,as well as data on asset structure evolution and financial performance of 34 listed companies in the Chinese coal mining.Entropy value method is used to calculate the entropy value of low-carbon transformation,and the regression analysis is used to study the performance of cleaner transformation,the conclusion is as follows:(1)From 2009 to 2020,in China’s total energy consumption,coal consumption accounted for 71.6%in 2009 and 56.8%in 2020,the goals set by the state have been achieved.(2)The national goal of reducing the proportion of coal consumption and reducing carbon emissions has forced the transformation of deep processing of coal products.The transformation of coal enterprises towards low-carbon and clean production has achieved remarkable results.(3)From 2009 to 2020,the non coal industry income of 34 listed companies in China’s coal mining industry increased by 8.21%annually.At the same time,the asset structure was adjusted,and nearly 80%of the asset structure evolution showed an orderly development trend.(4)The regression analysis results show that the entropy value of coal deep processing products and the entropy value of asset structure adjustment are significantly related to transformation performance.The paper proposes to summarize the successful experience of China’s coal energy economic transformation,lay a foundation for achieving the carbon peak and carbon neutral goals in the future,further increase the intensity of coal deep processing,increase the proportion of clean energy in total energy consumption,and strive to control asset operation towards the goal of increasing the proportion of non coal industry income.

Discussion on“School is Society”and Its Enlightenment to the Construction of University Environment

The principle of“school is society”indicates that controlling the environment is the only educational method.By transforming the school into a microcosm of society,we can cultivate individuals who possess a social spirit and adaptability,preparing them to thrive in real-world social situations.By analyzing the social performance of colleges and universities in terms of their training objectives for society,research concepts for the development of society,and service consciousness for the improvement of society,as well as the current demand for a proper connection with society,it can be found that taking“school is society”as the guiding ideology for the construction of the university environment tends to be simplified,purified,balanced,broadened,and provided with practical space.This will be beneficial to the development of higher education.

Combinations of Transportation Policies to Promote BRT Usage Using Artificial Society Model

Various transportation systems have been developed in recent years.In this study,an artificial society model is developed to examine the combination of transportation policies in urban areas.In this model,each trip maker selects the primary and terminal transportation modes.An artificial society model is applied to the southeastern region of Osaka City,Japan.The effects of introducing BRT(bus rapid transit,primary transportation)and on-demand buses(terminal transportation)are investigated.The results confirm that BRT is used by a certain number of users.An increase in the use of BRT will increase the amount of walking,thus resulting in a healthy city.However,on-demand buses are rarely used as terminal transportation.Additionally,the development of bicycle parking stations near BRT stops is shown to be effective in the northern section of the BRT route.

A Mechanism for Digital Finance to Drive Green and Low-Carbon Development

Given the global focus on green and low-carbon development and the increasing prominence of digital finance,it is particularly important to explore how to leverage digital finance to achieve these environmental goals.This study,through mechanism analysis,deeply examines how China’s digital finance promotes green and low-carbon development and elucidates the positive interaction between digital finance and the green industry.The study found that digital finance,through more flexible and efficient financial functions,alters the cost structure of carbon emissions,and reduces the risks and costs of green investments,thereby creating a cooperative green mechanism benefiting all parties,and guiding social groups toward a green and low-carbon transformation.Additionally,the rapid development of digital finance has strengthened the implementation of environmental protection policies,effectively promoted the expansion of the environmental protection industry,and established the green ethos as a mainstream concept in financial development.This study aims to provide reference perspectives and suggestions,assist policymakers in promoting the green and lowcarbon development of digital finance,and offer insights into the integrated development of digital finance and the green environmental protection industry.

Hungry and Angry Society: Implications for Sustainable Development in Nigeria

Hunger is a physiological need,but the production and consumption of adequate and balanced food is a function of social forces.At every point,social,political,and economic processes intervene,for better or(more common)for worse.Food is one fundamental need of human beings for survival.But in Nigeria there is widespread food shortage and hunger.Development scholars have put forward reasons why poverty,hunger persists in the country,from the platitudes about population growth,inadequate implementation of agricultural policies,and neglect of agriculture,bad leadership,corruption,and the issue of distribution.Nigeria is richly blessed with arable land and citizens eager to unlock its food potentials.Unfortunately,this is far from being realized as the country depends on foreign countries for food,a situation that is tragic and sad.She spends about$10 billion a year importing food and agricultural products,the majority of which are wheat,rice,poultry,fish,and consumer-oriented foods.The pressure on the exchange rate results in devaluation-triggered inflation and food costs that fly up beyond the grasp of people at the bottom of the ladder as it is now is one of the negative repercussions of high food importation bills.Examining the effects of hunger is one of this paper’s key concerns and goals,and anger crisis for achieving sustainable development in the country using the Frustration-Aggression Theory,The Relative Deprivation and Political Economy Approach as guide.

滕尼斯的习俗观及其自由张力

滕尼斯是在论题和概念上都非常接近民俗学及其经典范式的社会学家。按照滕尼斯的基本划分,共同体关系产生于自然形成的生存意志,社会关系产生于人为造成的抉择意志,于是,习俗与共同体似乎具有天然的依附关系。在他看来,Sitte(习俗)具有三方面的含义:一是指客观性质的简单事实,即习惯于做某事;二是指人自己给出的规则或规范;三是对某种意愿或意志的表达,这种含义最少得到关注却最值得关注。由生存意志产生的共同体及其习俗虽然有自由,却基本上是一种实体性自由或质料性自由,并非形式性自由。因而,个体意志要想自由,就必须从共同体以及习俗中脱颖而出,经历一场脱胎换骨式的涅槃重生,由此产生现代意义上的个体及其形式性自由。

中国文化情境下价值感知对农户混农林低碳增汇措施采纳的影响

混农林是高效利用自然资源、减缓气候变化的生态农业模式,农户的混农林低碳增汇措施对其贡献“双碳”目标具有重要影响。基于陕南秦巴山区864份调研数据,运用多元Probit模型以及调节效应模型探讨中国文化情境下价值感知对农户混农林低碳增汇措施采纳的影响,并分析不同措施之间的关联效应以及社会权威的调节作用。结果表明:(1)农户的减少含碳要素投入与减少非合意产出、减少含碳要素投入与提高经营强度、减少含碳要素投入与加强森林保护以及提高经营强度与加强森林保护措施之间均存在互补效应;(2)功利感知对各低碳增汇措施均具有显著正向影响,合群感知对减少含碳要素投入具有显著正向影响,颜面感知对减少含碳要素投入和提高经营强度具有显著正向影响;(3)社会权威在合群感知、颜面感知与减少含碳要素投入,功利感知、颜面感知与提高经营强度,功利感知与加强森林保护的关系中起负向调节作用。建议政府从中国本土文化特征入手,激发农户响应“双碳”目标的内生力量,同时发挥不同措施与技术之间的协同效应,推动农林减排增汇的长效开展。

认知错误是如何发生的?——《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》研究人类发明案例的启示

人类文明的演进,与发明密切相关。对于发明,传统看法是人们的需要促成了发明的产生,换言之,“需要乃发明之母”。这一观点看去天经地义,似无问题。但贾雷德·戴蒙德(Jared Diamond)在《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》一书中,通过对众多发明案例的系统梳理与分析,却得出两个完全不同的认识:一,在众多发明案例中,因需要而产生的发明只占极少一部分,绝大部分发明并非因需要而产生,相反,而是发明催生了需要,即“发明常常是需要之母,而不是相反”。二,将发明归咎于某一天才人物即“英雄史观”往往是后世的杜撰,发明“不是靠孤立的英雄行为”,而是技术长期积累、发展的结果。

以全政府和全社会方法推动生物多样性治理目标实现路径分析

《生物多样性公约》明确提出生物多样性保护、对生物多样性组分的可持续利用、遗传资源获取及其惠益的公平公正分享三大目标,《昆明-蒙特利尔全球生物多样性框架》进一步强调了平衡且全面实现此三项目标的重要性。近年来,伴随中国作为《生物多样性公约》第十五次缔约方大会(COP15)主席国的持续发力,“生物多样性治理”一词的使用频次逐步上升。习近平总书记更是在多个国际重要场合屡次重申中国将致力于强化“生物多样性治理”。在新的历史背景下,需要思考如何通过系统化的生物多样性治理,均衡地推进《生物多样性公约》设定的各项目标,以高水平的生物多样性保护助推高质量发展。针对当前生物多样性治理面临的新挑战和中国的实际国情,基于全政府和全社会方法,本文提出中国生物多样性治理的策略,包括在政府层面明确中央政府、地方政府及相关部门的各自职责,确保各项政策措施的有效执行;在社会层面,倡导科研机构、金融机构、企业、非政府组织、地方社区以及广大公众等多个主体,通过紧密的合作、信息的共享以及协同的行动,共同为生物多样性的治理与可持续发展的推进贡献力量。

数字化协同治理的研究进展与未来议程

数字化协同治理是研究数字时代政府治理方式与治理理念的重要线索,被视为政府数字化转型的“下一步行动”,其核心在于利用数字技术打破传统科层制的组织壁垒,促进跨部门、跨层级和跨界协作,进而提高政府治理的透明度、响应能力和服务质量。数字化协同治理主要经历了三个阶段的演进:在1.0阶段,运用信息共享平台打破组织壁垒,提升沟通效率;在2.0阶段,推动跨部门、跨层级协同治理,带来治理结构变革;在3.0阶段,则以全要素系统协同为特征,通过人、机、物等要素的系统协同实现更智能化、人性化的治理。未来,应立足中国情境推动理论本土化,发展连接宏观理论与微观经验的中层理论,深化数字化协同治理的理论研究与实践应用。
