SDG 12 : Responsible Consumption and Production – Overview

Wastewater containing heavy metal ions is considered as a serious environmental problem for human society. Advances in nanoscale science and engineering provide new opportunities to develop more cost-effective and environmentally acceptable water treatment technologies. Nanomaterials have a number of physicochemical properties that make them particularly attractive as nanoadsorbents for decontamination [...]

Release of toxic pollutants from industries, whether in the form of liquids or gases, has adversely affected the quality of the environment. To remediate the environment from such pollutants, a large number of conventional methods and advanced technologies have been developed and adopted. Amongst these innumerable methods, adsorption has emerged [...]

Previous studies on company scores conducted at firm-level, generally concluded that there exists a positive relation between company scores and stock returns. Motivated by these studies, this study examines the relationship between company scores (Corporate Governance Score, Economic Score, Environmental Score, and Social Score) and stock returns, both at portfolio-level [...]
