Biochar prepared at different pyrolysis temperatures affects urea-nitrogen immobilization and N2O emissions in paddy fields [PDF]
Background Food safety has become a major issue, with serious environmental pollution resulting from losses of nitrogen (N) fertilizers. N is a key element for plant growth and is often one of the most important yield-limiting nutrients in paddy soil ...

Valorization of biodigestor plant waste in electrodes for supercapacitors and microbial fuel cells [PDF]
This study aims at demonstrating that wastes from anaerobic biodigester plants can be effectively valorized as functional materials to be implemented in technologies that enable efficient energy management and water treatment, therefore simultaneously addressing the Water-Energy-Waste Nexus challenges.

Quantitative characterization of pore structure of several biochars with 3D imaging [PDF]
Pore space characteristics of biochars may vary depending on the used raw material and processing technology. Pore structure has significant effects on the water retention properties of biochar amended soils. In this work, several biochars were characterized with three-dimensional imaging and image analysis.

Pyrolysis Dynamics of Biomass Residues in Hot-Stage
Original data for mass, element, and methane dynamics under controlled pyrolysis are presented for several biomass feedstocks. The experimental system consisted of an environmental (low-vacuum) scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) with a hot-stage and ...

This work reports a novel carbonization‐free approach to convert natural wood into value‐added free‐standing electrode by simply compositing with highly conductive and electrochemical active MXene, and further proposes an effective pore‐reconstruction strategy to boost the capacitance of this electrode by filling MXene aerogels onto its natural vessels.

Abstract Vegetation has successfully been used for cleaning up metal(loid) polluted water bodies and lands through extracting and accumulating of contaminants in their aboveground biomass (phytoextraction). As this remediation technique is approaching extensive demonstration scale application and potential commercialisation, research efforts have been ...
