A review of agronomic and environmental properties of inorganic compounds in biochars
Current Research in Environmental Sustainability, 2023 The inorganic fractions of biochar are influenced by feedstock and pyrolysis conditions. They act as plant nutrients but can also be harmful to the environment.

Pyrolysis Dynamics of Biomass Residues in Hot-Stage
BioResources, 2015 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 ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Use of Biochar in agriculture. [PDF]
Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2020 The objective of this review is to show in a general way how biochar (BC) can be obtained and its effects on the physicochemical properties of soils and physiological behavior of cultivated plants. BC is a product rich in carbon that comes from the pyrolysis of biomass, generally of vegetable origin.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Foliar spraying of CS‐CDs can form a film on the leaves of Brassica rapa, effectively reducing the enrichment and absorption of PS in the leaves, while increasing the biomass and nutrient content of the plants. In addition, CS‐CDs can also enrich the interfoliar microbial community and activate the plant's own defense metabolic pathways.

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Chemical‐looping gasification (CLG) offers a promising route for renewable biomass valorization, yet conventional oxygen carrier regeneration with O₂/H₂O is energy‐intensive and often produces low‐quality syngas. Here, we develop an inverse ZrO2/Co3O4 oxygen carrier that enables selective biochar oxidation and efficient lattice‐oxygen transfer

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Healthcare derived polystyrene waste represents a growing and under addressed fraction of plastic waste streams due to contamination risks and limited recyclability. This study aims to investigate the valorization of waste polystyrene foam through catalytic and noncatalytic pyrolysis pathways to evaluate product yield distribution and identify

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigated sludge characteristics and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission from 16 anaerobic‐anoxic‐oxic (AAO) process wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), 11 municipal and 5 industrial WWTPs, located in the Taihu Lake Basin, China. Influent/effluent water quality, sludge properties, operational parameters, GHG emission patterns, and ...

A sustainable business ecosystem: a case study demonstrating biochar's potential
Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract The need for renewable, climate‐friendly resources has become urgent as legislators worldwide have sought to find ways to cut emissions while ensuring resource security for consumers. The use of biochar could help to achieve these goals. This study examines the current state of commercial biochar production and the maturity of the related ...
