High-income countries often outsource material demands to poorer along with the associated environmental damage. This phenomenon can also occur within (large) countries, such as China, which was responsible for 24 30% of global footprint (MF) between 2007 and 2010. Understanding distribution development China's MF is hence critical resource efficiency circular economy ambitions globally. Here we present a comprehensive analysis at provincial sectoral levels. We combine provincial-level...
Abstract Phasing down fossil fuels is crucial for climate mitigation. Even though 80–90% of are used to provide energy, their use as feedstock produce plastics, fertilizers, and chemicals, associated with substantial CO 2 emissions. However, our understanding hard-to-abate chemical production remains limited. Here we developed a process-based material flow model investigate the non-energy emissions in China. Results show 2017, industry 0.18 Gt coal, 88.8 Mt crude oil, 12.9 natural gas...
Recent plastic flow research has largely focused on commodity plastics (PE, PP, PVC, PS, ABS), yet a sizable share of other polymer types remains understudied. These non-commodity suffer from inconsistent definitions, complex classifications, and data gaps, which hinder accurate assessment their production, use, end-of-life management. This study develops dynamic material analysis to investigate 12 key "non-commodity" in China─including PET, PU, seven engineering plastics, three...
Summary China produces and consumes a large amount of batteries annually, which leads to many waste needing be recycled. The collection recycling system primary, alkaline secondary, lithium‐ion secondary in is particularly poor, battery enterprises generally sustain economic losses if they solely use as raw materials. Increasing the profits systems key problem that needs considered. This article quantitatively analyzes generation by using annual sales data probable lifetime distribution...
The rapid development of aquaculture has sustained aquatic food production but also led to a host environmental problems, ranging from eutrophication ecosystems global acidification. China become the world's largest producer and consumer products. Nitrogen is an essential nutrient in ecosystems, quantitative fate impact nitrogen during processes have notable consequences received little attention. Here, we established cycling model for China's ecosystem investigate creation reactive over...
Anthropogenic inputs of reactive nitrogen (Nr) provide sufficient food, energy, and industrial products to meet human demands; however, only a fraction Nr is consumed as food nonfood goods, the rest lost environment negatively affects ecosystems. High-resolution studies flows are invaluable increase use efficiencies reduce environmental emissions. In this study, comprehensive substance flow analysis for China in 2014 presented. Based on conceptual framework, which highlights key roles...
Developing collaborative and effective strategies for reducing reactive nitrogen (Nr) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is key to maintaining human activities within planetary boundaries. Nitrogen (N) management not only promotes Nr emission pollution control but also influences GHG sources. Therefore, we constructed a nitrogen-carbon (N-C) coupled model link N metabolism with inventory at the national scale, revealing contributions of synergistic reduction. China was selected as case study....
