Natural and recycled materials for sustainable membrane modification: Recent trends and prospects

The Science of The Total Environment, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 838, P. 156014 - 156014

Published: May 16, 2022

Despite water being critical for human survival, its uneven distribution, and exposure to countless sources of pollution make shortages increasingly urgent. Membrane technology offers an efficient solution alleviating the shortage impact. The selectivity permeability membranes can be improved by incorporating additives different nature size scales. However, with vast debate about environmental economic feasibility common nanoscale materials in treatment applications, we infer that there is a long way before first industrial nanocomposite membrane commercialized. This stumbling block has motivated scientific community search alternative modification routes and/or sustainable features. Herein, present pragmatic review merging concept sustainability, nanotechnology, through application natural (e.g., Clays, Arabic Gum, zeolite, lignin, Aquaporin), recycled Biochar, fly ash), waste Polyethylene Terephthalate, polystyrene) polymeric synthesis modification. Imparted features on membranes, induced presence waste-based materials, are scrutinized. In addition, strategies harnessed eliminate hurdles associated these nano micro composite elaborated. expanding research efforts devoted recently sustainability prospects discussed. findings investigations reported this work indicate fabrication/modification nascent area deserves attention both industry.

Recent Advances in Characterization and Valorization of Lignin and Its Value-Added Products: Challenges and Future Perspectives

Biomass, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 4(3), P. 947 - 977

Published: Sept. 2, 2024

Lignin, the earth’s second-most abundant biopolymer after cellulose, has long been relegated to low-value byproducts in pulp and paper industry. However, recent advancements valorization are transforming lignin into a sustainable versatile feedstock for producing high-value biofuels, bioplastics, specialty chemicals. This review explores conversion of lignin’s complex structure, composed syringyl (S), guaiacyl (G), p-hydroxyphenyl (H) units, value-added products. We critically assess various biochemical analytical techniques employed comprehensive characterization. Additionally, we explore strategies upgrading functionalization enhance its suitability advanced biomaterials. The emphasizes key areas valorization, including catalytic depolymerization methods, along with associated challenges advancements. discuss potential as diverse products such carbon fibers, adhesives, phenolic compounds. Furthermore, briefly inherent properties UV protectant antioxidant, alongside incorporation polymer blends composites. By presenting case studies from literature, this highlights significant economic environmental benefits waste reduction, lower greenhouse gas emissions, decreased reliance on non-renewable resources. Finally, address future perspectives achieving large-scale, techno-economically feasible, environmentally valorization.

Microbial- and seaweed-based biopolymers: Sources, extractions and implications for soil quality improvement and environmental sustainability - A review

Journal of Environmental Management, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 359, P. 120964 - 120964

Published: May 1, 2024

Improving soil quality without creating any environmental problems is an unescapable goal of sustainable agroecosystem management, according to the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Therefore, solutions are in high demand. One these use biopolymers derived from microbes and seaweed. This paper aims provide overview sources extraction microbial (bacteria cyanobacteria) seaweed-based as conditioners, characteristics biopolymer-treated soils, their concerns. A preliminary search was also carried out on entire Scopus database find how much attention has been paid biofertilizers compared other applications molecules until now. Several indicators were evaluated, including moisture, color, structure, porosity, bulk density, temperature, aggregate stability, nutrient availability, organic matter, activity. The mechanisms involved improving discussed.
