“…In order to reduce differences between indicators (for example, the amount of carbon dioxide produced and electricity consumption), the method involves normalizing the available data for all considered alternatives (i.e., in this case, different types of metal melting furnaces). Thus, the alternatives are ordered depending on the indicators of the criteria [24].…”

Metal is one of the most widely used materials in the world. It was a crucial driving force in technological development since the industrial age and continues to push us forward to this day. As metal consumption grows, so does the amount of scrap metal generated. Proper utilization of this waste is crucial in mitigating the negative environmental impacts of the metalworking industry. The processing and use of raw materials is often associated with high resource consumption and high emissions. The utilisation of scrap metal instead of raw metal can lead to up to 10 times less electricity consumption and up to 30 times fewer CO2 emissions. However, selecting the most suitable scrap metal processing technology is crucial, particularly in the case of the metal melting furnace which is the backbone of the industry. The efficiency of this process determines the environmental indicators for the entire scrap metal melting process. This paper conducts an analysis of 8 types of metal melting furnaces based on 11 environmental criteria. Furthermore, a SWOT analysis is conducted to evaluate the efficiency of the metal smelting process in Latvian metalworking enterprises and the potential for future expansion.

“…The results of various research company activities cause most environmental damage, especially mining companies because it is identical to exploiting natural resources in the earth's crust (Ahmadi-Gh & Bello-Pintado, 2022; Amoako, 2020; Gschwantner & Hiebl, 2016;Smith & Sharicz, 2011). This causes a decrease in environmental quality and global warming, and the occurrence of natural disasters (Albertini, 2021;Karaman et al, 2018;Naciti, 2019;Yusoff et al, 2019), ozone depletion, water pollution, and acid rain (Filho et al, 2020). Therefore, the disclosure of all company of intangible assets is based on green intellectual capital and financial performance to achieve sustainable competitive advantage (Farooque & Ahulu, 2017; Fiernaningsih et al, 2021;Porter, 1996).…”

This study examines financial performance (profitability, efficiency) and sustainable green intellectual capital having a significant positive effect on sustainable competitive advantage. The sample is 165 firm-year observations of the Indonesian energy and mining sector from 2016 to 2020. The sample writer used in this study is purposive sampling, and the analysis uses panel data with review 10. The results show that financial performance profitability has a negative impact, efficiency performance has a significant positive effect, and unique, sustainable green intangible assets do not affect sustainable competitive advantage using sustainable differentiation advantage. This study is limited to secondary data published by companies in the energy and mining sectors related to the disclosure of ownership of unique green intangible assets. Profitability and efficiency are the sources of sustainable competitive advantage (sustainable differentiation product advantage). This study uses sustainable competitive advantage by measuring sustainable differentiation as the dependent variable and ownership of unique intangible assets derived from green intellectual capital with contingency theory.
