Production of green surfactants: Market prospects

Science has greatly contributed to the advancement of technology and to the innovation of production processes and their applications. Cleaning products have become indispensable in today’s world, as personal and environmental hygiene is important to all societies worldwide. Such products are used in the home, in most work environments and in the industrial sectors. Most of the detergents on the market are synthesised from petrochemical products. However, the interest in reducing the use of products harmful to human health and the environment has led to the search for detergents formulated with natural, biodegradable surfactant components of biological (plant or microbiological) origin or chemically synthesised from natural raw materials usually referred to as green surfactants. This review addresses the different types, properties, and uses of surfactants, with a focus on green surfactants, and describes the current scenario as well as the projections for the future market economy related to the production of the different types of green surfactants marketed in the world.How to cite: Farias CBB, Almeida FCG, Silva IA, et al.

Reimagining Newsroom Collaboration: How Two European News Nonprofits Are Inviting Citizens In

ABSTRACT

News nonprofits in the U.S. have been proliferating over 15 years as a way of addressing troubles in the business model for news. For these newsrooms, collaboration, with each other and with mainstream news, has emerged as a key way to build readership and attain relevance in a crowded media space. Still, past research has told us that the strong connection to mainstream news has constrained these organizations’ critique of journalism. In Europe, nonprofit news remains nascent and represents a response to declining trust in and engagement with journalism, and rising populism across the continent. Against this very different context, this study examines two players at the forefront of the European news nonprofit movement. It demonstrates the path dependency inherent in the origins of these organizations: In Europe, they are a response to a different societal change, and thus developed rather differently than did their peers in the United States, with a focus on redefining the idea of collaboration and the role of their audiences by seeing citizens as collaborators, both in the creation and in the dissemination of news. By seeing citizens as collaborators, not just readers, they work to empower and build news audiences as well as participants.

政府与市场:奥运会组织模式的双翼——兼论2008年北京奥运会组织模式

举办一届最出色的奥运会已经成为北京乃至全国关注和努力奋斗的目标。出色的奥运会的筹备和组织工作包括组织模式的创新。回顾奥运会一百多年的历史，发现政府和市场的关系问题在奥运会组织模式中起着重要作用。运用比较的研究方法，对两者关系进行研究，认为政府和市场是成功组织奥运会的双翼，二者不可偏废。如果奥运会由政府举办，政府失灵会导致奥运会亏损；单独靠市场运作，市场失灵会导致奥运会的组织混乱。总结正反两方面的经验教训，政府和市场的积极作用相结合，将不仅有利于奥运会的成功举办，而且对组织体制和模式的创新留下宝贵的遗产。
