“…Moreover, the result indicates that green self-identity significantly and positively influences the intention to purchase products of bio-waste with β = 0.305 and p = 0.042, which is significant. This result is consistent with findings in Ong et al, (2015) and Barbarossa, et. al.…”

“…The process of remanufacturing bio-waste could be logically considered as a process of reducing waste and eliminating environmental issues in the current world. According to Ong et al, (2015) who have examined consumers' perception towards green products, the major factor influencing changes in consumers' purchase behaviour is green self-identity instead of prices of products, but the green self-identity. Green self-identity of individual consumers could be generated or affected by external factors such as subjective norms.…”

“…Moreover, green selfidentity could be relatively difficult to build and establish to cause the intention of consumers to switch their purchasing behaviour or attitudes (Sharma et al, 2020). According to Ong et al (2015), green self-identity is the self-concept established by the individuals or consumers according to their environmental knowledge and attitude.…”

The impact of urbanisation and increasing number of populations have become major factors that lead to negative impact toward the environment. Although waste management has been practiced by most of the marketers, the problem of waste is still not well-managed. Therefore, this study is conducted with the aim to examine the impacts of consumers’ perception towards products of bio-waste and to understand consumers’ purchasing behaviour. The paper adopted multiple regression analysis in investigating consumers’ perception towards bio-waste products and consumers’ purchasing behaviour variables. The self-administered surveys were randomly disseminated to Penang consumers, where 99 responses were collected. The result shows a positive relationship between consumers’ perception towards bio-waste and purchase behaviour variables, which is consistent with the theory of planned behaviour. Thus, this study caters several implications and recommendations to the scholars, industrial practitioners and policymakers regarding consumers’ perception and purchasing behaviour towards bio-waste products.

Over the past years, practicum teachers have been assigned to schools for their teaching practicum. Many of them tend to struggle with the reduced attention span of students due to online learning. As such, microlearning has been seen to be the most recent method of teaching that could aid students to learn better. This research focuses on the interaction and relativity of microlearning with practicum teachers in the teaching and learning process. 8 groups of 20 students in each group were selected using a convenience sampling method, as the group of students were easily accessed by the researcher, and the practicum teachers acted as the data collectors for this research. The microlearning tool used to replace the traditional teaching method was a 3-minute video and images.. All selected students are in the same level of studies which is in Year 8. Majority of them have the same proficiency level which is upper intermediate. The results show that microlearning did help with their classroom management and students were able to practise their scaffolding skills in a more effective manner.

“…The environmental legislation by government bodies as well as higher consumer awareness are influencing the design process of the lubricating grease to employ more sustainable and environmentally friendly components [2]. Due to this scenario, a new market revolving around eco-friendly products is developing very rapidly, where consumers exhibits higher tendency to use new products and is also willing to pay for green products to conserve the environment from negative effects [3]. Several studies has been done related to the environmental friendly lubricating grease through the utilization of eco-friendly thickener such as cellulose derivatives and beeswax [4,5].…”

Abstract. The issues on environmental pollution has brought the industries to seek the alternative green solutions for lubricating grease formulation. The significant challenges in producing modified grease are in which considering the chosen thickener as one of the environmental friendly material. The main purposes of the current research were to formulate lubricant grease using different types of base oils and to study the effect of thickener on the formulated lubricant grease. Used oil and motor oil were used as the base oils for the grease preparation. Beeswax and Damar were used as thickener and additive. The grease is tested based on its consistency, stability and oil bleeding. The prepared greases achieved grease consistency of grade 2 and 3 except for grease with unfiltered used oil. Grease formulated with used oil and synthetic oil tend to harden and loss its lubricating ability under high temperature compared to motor oil' grease. Grease modification using environmental friendly thickener were successfully formulated but it is considered as a low temperature grease as the beeswax have low melting point of 62°C-65°C.
