Forecasting of secondary lead recovery from motorcycle batteries in Brazil: a contribution to waste management
This study aims to predict the potential for secondary lead recovery from motorcycle batteries in Brazil, since this is considered the second largest category of automobiles in the country. To achieve this objective, a forecasting model based on the ARIMA methodology was applied, with input data taken from Brazilian sectorial platforms. Furthermore, an analysis of the data, of the residuals, autocorrelation tests, as well as Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Dickey-Fuller tests, were performed. The SARIMA model (3,1,0) (2,0,0)12 presented a better adaptation to the behavior of the series. The results showed that the amount of seconda...

Digital technology and its application in supply chain management: new evidence from China's economy
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29486-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe purpose of this article is to investigate the influence that practices using information technology (IT) have on the development of a competitive advantage across the supply chain. An organization has a competitive advantage when it has qualities that give the required foundations for it to separate itself from other organizations that are also in its industry. Pressure is applied to the corporate environment as a result of competition and ongoing changes, such as the introduction of new products and technical advanc...

A critical review on sustainable hazardous waste management strategies: a step towards a circular economy
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29511-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGlobally, industrialisation and urbanisation have led to the generation of hazardous waste (HW). Sustainable hazardous waste management (HWM) is the need of the hour for a safe, clean, and eco-friendly environment and public health. The prominent waste management strategies should be aligned with circular economic models considering the economy, environment, and efficiency. This review critically discusses HW generation and sustainable management with the strategies of prevention, reduction, recycling, waste-to-energy, a...

Institutional quality, oil price, and environmental degradation in MENA countries moderated by economic complexity and shadow economy
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29758-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper aims to analyze the link between environmental degradation and institutional quality and the price of oil moderated by economic complexity and the underground economy. We use quantile regressions with annual panel data for 15 countries in the Middle East and North Africa during 1995-2021. The findings indicate that institutional quality, economic complexity, and output positively and heterogeneously impact environmental degradation. However, the square of production has a negative impact, confirming an inverte...
