We study the link between two recent approaches to modeling emission-generating
technologies: the by-production approach and the axiomatic approach. The by-production …

We propose a set of comprehensive axioms that seek to capture our intuitive understanding
of the properties of an emission-generating technology (EGT). We show that an EGT that …

We argue analytically that many commonly used models of pollution-generating
technologies, which treat pollution as a freely disposable input or as a weakly disposable …

We contribute to the literature on undesirable-output technology modeling by first discussing
the limits of the recently proposed by-production approach of Murty et al.(2012)(hereafter we …

This chapter theoretically discusses existing methodologies to model environmental
adjustments of technologies. We elaborate on the limitations of treating pollution as an input …

In this paper we consider an environmental production process in which firms intend to
produce outputs (which we label as desirable/good) but the production process is such that …

In modeling emissions, the literature has usually specified an explicit emission function, or
treated emissions as a production input. We examine the validity of these approaches …

In the environmental economics literature the standard approach of modeling non-linear
production and abatement processes is to treat waste emissions “simply as another factor of …

We update developments on modeling technology including unintended outputs and show
how these can, at least to a large extent, be incorporated in a network model framework …

This study introduces the measurement of environmental inefficiency from an economic
perspective. We develop our proposal using the latest by-production models that consider …
