Summary: The study assesses the environmental impact of frozen fresh cauliflower gnocchi using life cycle assessment methodology. It finds that cultivation, distribution, and packaging are the most influential factors, and home storage plays a crucial role in the product's life cycle. The eco-design of packaging can achieve significant reductions in impact, but its overall responsibility is limited compared to the entire life cycle.

Summary: This study compares the environmental impact of three food packaging systems (Overwrap, High Oxygen Modified Atmosphere Packaging, and Vacuum Skin) used in the beef meat market. The results show that the Overwrap system has the best environmental performance when considering only the packaging life cycle, while the Vacuum Skin system with the longest shelf-life represents the best environmental solution when considering potential food waste effects.

Summary: This study focuses on the assessment and reduction of environmental impact for a breakthrough microalgal production system based on rotating biofilm. Eco-design parameters such as NH3 emission factor, fabric support properties, and electricity consumption were identified as crucial for optimizing the system. By eco-designing this new technology, the environmental impact was reduced by 25% to 88.3%. The environmental footprint of algae meal from rotating algal biofilms outperformed other production scenarios and achieved a 70.8% reduction in environmental impact compared to conventional aquafeeds.

Summary: Eco-designed products can contribute to sustainable development if consumers choose them over less environmentally friendly alternatives and if they are used properly. However, the current eco-design methods have failed to address the issue of unsustainable behaviors, which has led to the creation of a framework to identify and categorize unsustainable behaviors in order to help designers prevent negative impacts during the product lifecycle.

Summary: This paper reviews the applications of nanomaterials in concrete and focuses on their environmental impacts. The study found that some nanomaterials can enhance the performance of concrete and reduce CO2 emissions. However, the production of nanomaterials still faces challenges such as high energy consumption and limited scale. Additionally, research regarding the environmental impacts, ecotoxicity, and toxicity of nanomaterials in concrete is scarce and requires further investigation.

Summary: Prospective life cycle assessment is used to evaluate the environmental sustainability of eco-design solutions prospectively. This study proposes a systematic method to collect all the flows about a specific function of the product lifecycle from patent literature for building the foreground inventory of prospective LCA. The proposed method improves patent search recall and precision, ensures data reliability and significance, and allows for time evolution and forecasting considerations in the results.

Summary: This study explores the influence of consumers' Country of Origin (COO) on wine representations and perception, finding that South African consumers focus on personal experience while French consumers emphasize wine itself and origin information. The origin information has a greater impact on French participants, leading to a different sorting strategy based on the origin of the wines.

Summary: In order to facilitate the characterisation of wine aromas, a new approach called Hierarchical-Rate-All-That-Apply (HRATA) is proposed. HRATA combines the Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA) methodology with a hierarchical structuring of attributes to simplify data acquisition and analysis. HRATA was applied to the characterisation of five rose wines using 66 participants and 118 hierarchically structured attributes. The results obtained from HRATA were compared to those from a descriptive analysis (DA) conducted by a trained panel.

Summary: This study analyzes the characteristics of process parameters in three lean gas ethane recovery processes and establishes a prediction and multiobjective optimization model for ethane recovery and system energy consumption. A new method for comparing ethane recovery processes for lean gas is proposed, and the addition of extra coolers improves the ethane recovery. The support vector regression model based on grey wolf optimization demonstrates the highest prediction accuracy, and the multiobjective multiverse optimization algorithm shows the best optimization performance and diversity in the solutions.

Summary: The paper proposes a novel deep learning-based prediction framework, aTCN-LSTM, for accurate cooling load predictions. The framework utilizes a gate-controlled multi-head temporal convolutional network and a sparse probabilistic self-attention mechanism with a bidirectional long short-term memory network to capture both temporal and long-term dependencies in the cooling load sequences. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method, which can serve as an effective guide for HVAC chiller scheduling and demand management initiatives.

Summary: This study uses survey data from the Loess Plateau in China to evaluate the impact of social interaction on the adoption of soil and water conservation (SWC) technology by farmers. The study finds that social interaction increases the likelihood of farmers adopting SWC, and internet use moderates this effect. The positive impact of social interaction on SWC adoption is more pronounced for farmers in larger villages and those who join cooperative societies.
