The emissions from transportation have been increasing rapidly in the last decade, accounting for second highest greenhouse gas energy sector. Replacing crude oil-based fuels with biofuels derived bio-based feedstocks can significantly reduce carbon footprint and environmental impact of transportation. In comparison to other forms renewable energy, would require relatively less infrastructure investment. This study conducts a comprehensive analysis Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) evaluates...
The push to decarbonize has spurred the demand for clean energy technologies such as electric vehicles (EVs) and wind turbines (WTs). These rely on rare earth permanent magnets (REPMs), namely Neodymium-Iron-Boron (NdFeB) that in turn elements (REEs), including Neodymium (Nd), Dysprosium (Dy). As increases, so will Nd Dy-containing REPMs. Both Dy are critical prone supply chain risks. our reliance them it becomes essential anticipate future market dynamics these elements. This paper aims...
The electrification of the transport sector is crucial for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) depend critical materials (CMs) their batteries electronic components, yet widespread adoption may face constraints due to limited availability CMs. This study assesses implications vehicle lightweighting (material substitution) U.S. CM demand light-duty (LDVs) medium- heavy-duty (MHDVs).

Rare earth elements (REEs) such as Neodymium (Nd) and Dysprosium (Dy) are used in Earth Permanent Magnets (REPMs). Neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets offer the strongest magnetic field per volume among all available market, which enables lightweight compact product designs. NdFeB have thus become indispensable emerging clean technologies wind turbines electric vehicles (EVs). Global demand for these renewables is increasing due to environmental considerations, energy security, consumer...
With the increasing concern due to climate change caused by a higher atmospheric concentration of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, reducing environmental impact is becoming more important for every part society. Manufacturing responsible significant amount energy/material consumption burden and, therefore, has great opportunity reduce its through green manufacturing. Green manufacturing presents opportunities across enterprise increase efficient usage energy material resources. These include...
Many of the materials needed for production electric vehicles (EVs), in particular batteries and motors, are subject to substantial supply chain uncertainty. A circular economy approach that recovers these materials/components from end-of-life (EoL) would reduce dependence on primary (virgin) materials/components. However, there is a lack EoL infrastructure can process whole EV holistic manner. To address this pressing issue, paper discusses potential Renewal System (EVRS) aims directly...
Disassembly is an inevitable step in the recovery of valuable materials from end-of-life (EoL) mobile phones. Although a Hybrid Graph one prevalent method for disassembly modeling, it cannot accurately describe subassembly disassembling process. In this paper, improved hybrid graph model (IDHGM) selective sequence planning proposed limitations process EoL The containment, exclusion, and are considered view close connection phone parts occurrence interlocking between parts. Based on different...
Abstract Driven by growing decarbonization initiatives, looming energy security risks, and heightened environmental awareness, there is escalating attention devoted to clean technologies such as electric vehicles (EVs), wind turbines. Data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 2022 revealed that transportation sector alone contributed a staggering 29% of total greenhouse gas emissions United States. Consequently, EVs have emerged promising solution achieve sustainable...
