“…A substantial amount of empirical evidence exists in the literature to determine the nexus between FDI and CE. Studies that are concerned with a single country to the association of CE and FDI contain Bakhsh, Rose, Ali, Ahmad and Shahbaz [ 12 ], Wang, et al [ 25 ], Salahuddin, et al [ 26 ], and Hajilary, et al [ 27 ]. Studies that are concerned with multiple countries to the nexus of carbon emissions (CE) and FDI include Abdouli and Hammami [ 28 ], Baek [ 29 ], Chandran and Tang [ 21 ], Behera and Dash [ 22 ], Doytch and Uctum [ 30 ], Rafindadi, et al [ 31 ], Hakimi and Hamdi [ 32 ], Hanif, et al [ 33 ], Lee [ 34 ], Omri, et al [ 35 ], Shahbaz, et al [ 36 ], Kivyiro and Arminen [ 37 ], Pao and Tsai [ 23 ], Kahouli and Omri [ 38 ], Waqih, Bhutto, Ghumro, Kumar and Salam [ 19 ], and Sun, Tariq, Haris and Mohsin [ 20 ].…”

“…The findings of VECM revealed that FDI and other variables strongly Granger cause carbon emissions (CE). Furthermore, Hajilary et al [ 27 ] revealed the significant association between FDI and carbon emissions (CE) with the help of data from Iran for the period 1976 to 2016. They used the partial least square (PLS) model to observe the relationship between variables.…”

South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries like other developing countries are the major destination for foreign investors. At the same time, these countries are facing different climate change challenges. This study aims to inspect the economic determinants of carbon emissions (CE) and dynamic causal interaction of CE with foreign direct investment (FDI), economic growth (EG), and other economic factors using panel cointegration test, dynamic ordinary least squares (DOLS) and vector error correction model (VECM) for the SAARC countries. To make the homogenous analysis, we examined the association among variables for the individual country and as a group for the period 1990 to 2016. The panel results of this study confirmed the presence of the unidirectional causal association of EG with CE. The panel results of other economic factors confirmed the causality of urban population (UP) and energy consumption (EC) with CE. Moreover, the panel results of domestic capital (DS) and inflation rate (INF) confirmed the causal association with EG. Finally, the panel results of DS revealed a causality with FDI. Based on the above results, some policy guidelines are proposed.

“…Sustainable anthropogenic emission of greenhouse contaminants such as CO 2 and its pernicious influence on the atmosphere (i.e., global warming and acid rains) has been a global concern in developed and developing countries 1 , 2 . Globally, it is estimated that several billion tons of CO 2 are being emitted into the atmosphere each year through burning fossil fuels 3 .…”

The use of nanofluids has been recently of great interest to separate acidic contaminants such as CO 2. The main objective of this research is to assess the influence of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) addition to distilled water on enhancing the CO 2 molecular separation through a porous membrane contactor (PMC). For this aim, a comprehensive model is developed based on non-wetted and counter-current operational modes to evaluate the principal mass and momentum transport equations in tube, membrane and shell compartments of PMC. Consequently, a CFD-based axisymmetrical simulation is implemented according to finite element technique (FET) to prognosticate the results. It is found from the results that the addition of 0.1 wt% carbon nanotubes (CNTs) particles to water significantly enhances the mass transfer and consequently the CO 2 molecular separation efficiency from 38 to 63.3%. This considerable enhancement can be justified due to the existence of two momentous phenomena including Brownian motion and Grazing effect, which enhance the mass transport of CO 2 molecules in the PMC. Moreover, the effect of CNTs concentration, some membrane's parameters such as number of hollow fibers and porosity and also some module's design parameters including module radius and length on the CO 2 separation performance are investigated in this paper as another highlight of the current work. Sustainable anthropogenic emission of greenhouse contaminants such as CO 2 and its pernicious influence on the atmosphere (i.e., global warming and acid rains) has been a global concern in developed and developing countries 1,2. Globally, it is estimated that several billion tons of CO 2 are being emitted into the atmosphere each year through burning fossil fuels 3. Human's industrial activities are verified to be the main reason for the increase in CO 2 amount and disturbance in atmospheric natural balance. Thus, it is vitally important to develop viable procedures for CO 2 sequestration 4. There are different processes for separation and removal of CO 2 from gas streams which need to be improved to obtain more efficient processes. Traditional techniques such as pressure swing adsorption, bubble columns, venture scrubbers, spray towers, and packed towers have recently been applied to eliminate CO 2 contaminants from gas streams. Apart from the superb advantages of conventional methods, such techniques suffer from disparate difficulties such as high capital/operating costs, risk of liquid overflow, frothing, entrainment, and channeling 5,6. The combination of gas absorption and membrane separation processes formed a modern technique which is known as the membrane gas separation (MGS) system. This technique is able to overcome the

“…The direct result of the global warming is the melting of ice at the polar regions which are melting rapidly as the increase of temperature is about 0.8 °C (1.4 °F) in the global air and sea surface at the early twentieth century and it is about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980 [1]. Scientists showed that the combustion of fossil fuels like-gas, oil, and coal releases carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into the atmosphere are the major reasons for this hazardous situation that has occurred in recent decades [2]. But as fossil fuels are cheaper, the reduction of their use in a very short time is not economically suitable.…”

Still, a large area in the islands and coastal regions of Bangladesh are out of getting the facilities of electricity. Bryophyllum pinnatum (Goethe Plant) is a perennial herb of 3-5 feet tall and has fleshy dark green leaves. This plant can be grown everywhere easily without any special husbandry. As these leaves contain some organic acids which are used as the electrolyte in BPL cells for low-level electricity production and it has found economically efficient considering current perspective at the off-grids. There are some parameters through which we can measure the performance of the BPL cell such as the variation of V OC and I SC with the electrode gaps, surface area of the electrode, leaf juice and water ratio, effect of secondary salt (CuSO 4 •5H 2 O), different juice specimens, anode-cathode area ratio and the performance of the older juice. Information carried out through our studies will help to optimize the cell performance.
