Research on low-carbon development path of manufacturing industry: a perspective on factor allocation balance and synergy
Factor structural imbalances brought about by factor market incompleteness can lead to a significant divergence in the marginal returns of factor inputs between high and low-efficiency firms, which emphasizes the necessity of a rational allocation of factors. The study proposed a meta-heuristic optimization random forest model with strong interpretability to identify the nonlinear partial depen…

Cannabis sativa L. biomass valorization as a strategic bioresource for South Africa’s circular bioeconomy: integrating biorefinery pathways and green extraction
South Africa’s legalized Cannabis Sativa L. industry generates substantial biomass waste, including post-harvest materials such as stalks, leaves, roots, and seeds, as well as post-extraction residues rich in lignocellulosic components (cellulose, lignin, hemicellulose) and functional compounds (fibers, phenolic compounds, and proteins) which remain largely unvalorized. This review critically a…
