Self-checkout (SCO) systems have become an integral part of modern retail, yet their increasing popularity has also revealed a number of technical and usability challenges that influence customer experience and technology acceptance. This paper investigates human–machine interact...

Efficient nitrogen management as a win-win strategy for air quality, health, and climate

Reactive nitrogen (Nr) management links climate policy, air quality and food production, yet its combined impacts remain poorly quantified. Here, we conduct ensemble simulations with two global climate models, Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) and Community Earth System...

Fuzzy Modeling as a Tool Supporting the Energy Policy of Selected Municipalities (Poland)

Energy planning should focus on actions to save energy and reduce consumption while also implementing renewable energy sources to support sustainable urban development. In addition to global regulations, individual countries also have documents that facilitate energy management a...

Gate-to-Gate Benchmarking of Electricity Use and Electricity-Related CO2 Emissions in Mechanical Cable Recycling: A Descriptive Industrial Case Report from Poland

Cable scrap is a high-grade secondary copper resource, but transparent plant-scale evidence on the operational energy and emissions performance of mechanical separation lines remains limited. This descriptive industrial case report presents a non-replicated comparison of complete...
