Mechanistic insights into the role of biochar, alum, and iron sulfate in nutrient retention and DOC-associated leaching from poultry litter-amended soils

Frontiers in Environmental Chemistry
IntroductionIndiscriminate application of poultry litter (PL) often exceeds crop nutrient demand, resulting in nitrate (NO3-N) and phosphate (PO4-P) leaching to groundwater.

Defect‐Engineered Microwave‐Responsive Ni@C Composites From Waste PET for Catalytic Plastic Upcycling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A circular upcycling strategy transforms waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) bottles into microwave‐responsive Ni@C catalyst featuring lattice‐distorted nickel cores and defective carbon shells. These strain‐rich heterointerfaces enhance dielectric loss and promote localized microwave hotspots, accelerating peroxymonosulfate activation and polymer‐chain

Effects of different regimes of fertilization on soil organic matter under conventional tillage

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2014
To explore the effects of different fertilization regimes on soil organic matter (SOM) sequestration in a winter-soybean/corn rotation, a long-term field experiment was conducted in Anhui, China, from 1982 to 2011. There were six treatments, as follows: (
