AI-guided investigation of biochar’s efficacy in Pb immobilization for remediation of Pb contaminated agricultural land

open access: yesApplied Biological Chemistry
This study evaluated the lead (Pb) immobilization efficiency of biochar in contaminated agricultural soil. The biochar was produced from a range of major biomass residues and pyrolyzed under well-controlled conditions.

Adsorption of Mercury in Aqueous Solutions by Functionalized Cellulose Extracted from Soybean Hulls

open access: yesChemPlusChem, EarlyView.
Reuse of agricultural waste as a source of adsorbent cellulose‐based materials is a low‐cost and sustainable approach to remove potentially toxic elements (PTEs) from aqueous solutions. This approach is successfully applied in the removal of mercury from aquaculture water, an important source of food where the absence of PTEs is a fundamental requisite

Seaweed Aquaculture for Carbon Farming: An Assessment Under the EU's QU.A.L.ITY (Quantification, Additionality, Long‐Term Storage, Sustainability) Framework

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is growing interest in establishing a seaweed farming industry in Europe, and this industry has the potential for being a mechanism for atmospheric carbon dioxide removal (CDR). The EU recognises the potential of CDR to help meet climate change targets, but also acknowledges the importance of creating credible markets for CDR ecosystem ...

Synthetic Lignin Oligomers: Analytical Techniques, Challenges, and Opportunities

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
The review begins by discussing lignin and its structural complexity, followed by challenges in elucidating depolymerization products and the analytical techniques used. It then focuses on the chemical structure of synthetic lignin oligomers, their synthesis mechanisms, and their significance in current science. Finally, scientific gaps are identified,

Valorisation of Greenhouse Gas for Commodity Chemical Production–Nitrous Oxide as Oxidising Agent for Heterogeneous Catalysis

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
Heterogeneous catalysts can enhance the selectivity of oxidation reactions using N2O as oxidizing Agent with proper modification of catalyst phase, surface area, and acidity. N₂O activation leads to generating reactive oxygen species, facilitating selective oxidation and dehydrogenation to produce various products such as oxygenates, hydrocarbons, and ...

A Roadmap for Biomass‐Driven Development of Sustainable Phase Change Materials

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
This comprehensive review advances the scientific understanding of sustainability and circularity in phase change material (PCM) fabrication by providing a strategic framework for developing composites from abundant, renewable resources. By screening biomass‐derived PCMs, carbons, and biopolymers, a roadmap is outlined for the development of ...

Converting Biochar Into Biochar‐Based Urea Promotes Environmental and Economic Sustainability in Rice‐Wheat Rotation System

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy
Biochar amendments in rice‐wheat systems are sustainable for reducing GHGs (greenhouse gases) and improving soil health but the widespread adoption of biochar faces economic challenges. To address limitation, a novel biochar‐based urea was formulated for
