Tailoring Biowaste‐Derived Activated Hydrochar With Multifunctionality Toward Antibiotic Adsorption, CO2 Capture, and Energy Storage

ChemPlusChem, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
Date seed biowaste was hydrothermally carbonized to produce hydrochar (HC), which was further converted into activated hydrochar (AHC) via phosphoric acid activation. This sustainable, multifunctional carbon material was evaluated for three applications: antibiotic (levofloxacin) adsorption, CO2 capture, and energy storage as a phosphoric‐acid‐based ...

Towards Sustainable Waste Valorization: A Techno‐Economic Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment for HMF Production From Potato Residues Based on Process Simulation

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Potato processing residues are valorized into the platform chemical 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) using an integrated biorefinery concept. Process simulation, techno‐economic analysis, and life cycle assessment show that scaling and modularity significantly reduce costs and environmental impacts, highlighting waste‐based HMF as a promising route for a ...
