Particles in a box: Novel design and evaluation of an adaptable engineering control enclosure for a common split tube furnace to eliminate occupational exposure to refractory ceram... by Janković, Nina Z., Leong, Wei Lee, Ryan, Andrew I., Tantawi, Omar N., Smith, Brian S., Plat, Desiree L.

“…Direct real-time measurements revealed that traditional use of the furnace could result in peak RCF total and respirable fraction particle mean concentrations of 25 ± 10 mg m−3 and 11 ± 4 mg m−3, respectively (n = 50). Employment of the ventilated enclosure reduces instantaneous exposure to total RCF dust and the respirable fraction to approximately baseline values: 0.006 mg m−3 ± 0.003 mg m−3, and 0.003 mg m−3 ± 0.002 mg m−3, respectively (n = 30). …”

Stakeholder views on the uptake of sustainable and responsible nickel mining and processing supply chains for electric vehicles in Indonesia by Malik, Rameen Hayat

“…Central to this examination is the dual role of nickel as both a critical and contentious resource, reflecting on its classification as a critical mineral by multiple countries due to its indispensability in EV battery production and the substantial environmental and social challenges associated with its extraction and processing. Employing a policy mobility framework, this thesis navigates the trans-local dynamics of policy making in Indonesia, juxtaposing these with global economy wide pursuits of transportation decarbonization via the EV industry. …”
