“…Second, we focus on releases of NO x and SO x , two of the five main air pollutants on which EU member states must report. NO x and SO x also result from burning fuel but their environmental impact is different (Shelyapina, Rodríguez-Iznaga and Petranovskii, 2021): they cause acid deposition, which deteriorates soil and water quality and damages forests, crops and other vegetation. Third, we investigate hazardous air pollutants that can cause cancer and other diseases.…”

Using data on 10,776 firms across 22 emerging markets, we show that both credit constraints and weak green management hold back corporate investment in green technologies embodied in new machinery, equipment, and vehicles. In contrast, investment in measures to explicitly reduce emissions and other pollution is mainly determined by the quality of a firm’s green management and less so by binding credit constraints. Data from the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register reveal the environmental impact of these organizational constraints. In areas where more firms are credit constrained and weakly managed, industrial facilities systematically emit more CO2 and pollutants. A counterfactual analysis shows that credit constraints and weak management have respectively kept CO2 emissions 4.5% and 2.3% above the levels that would have prevailed without such constraints. This is further corroborated by our finding that in localities where banks had to deleverage more due to the global financial crisis, carbon emissions by industrial facilities remained 5.6% higher a decade later.

“…The unique and exceptional physical and chemical properties of zeolites in general, and of the heulandite-clinoptilolite family of zeolites in particular, favor their use in many applications, including CO 2 post-combustion adsorption [144]. One of these properties is a high adsorption capacity, which is combined with a molecular sieve effect, which makes it possible to selectively absorb certain gases from mixtures.…”

Ion Exchange in Natural Clinoptilolite: Aspects Related to Its Structure and Applications

2022

Clinoptilolite is one of the most common, widespread and abundant zeolites in nature. Its availability, low cost, and outstanding ion exchange properties make clinoptilolite an excellent candidate for both direct use and various modifications to create new low-cost functional materials for sustainable development. Specific applications in which clinoptilolite is already being used include water treatment and heavy metal ion removal, agricultural purposes, storage and conversion of unwanted gaseous emissions into the atmosphere, production of catalysts and photocatalysts, bioactive materials, and a number of others. Unlike some other zeolites, clinoptilolite is difficult to synthesize, which is why most publications refer to this zeolite in its natural form, either directly from the deposit or after applying various processes to this mineral to improve its properties. Among the modification methods used, ion exchange stands out. This review is devoted to the study of ion exchange processes in natural clinoptilolite with two goals: first, as its strategic property for use in processes in which cation exchange is fundamentally necessary; second, as a way to modify it to create composite materials with predetermined desired properties.
