Towards a zero-waste sustainable biorefinery of Codium sp. seaweed: From bioactives application to soil enhancement materials

Journal of Cleaner Production, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 453, P. 142191 - 142191

Published: April 10, 2024

In the pursuit of sustainability and circularity, this study aimed to develop a multi-purpose biorefinery pipeline using extracts from green seaweed Codium sp. transforming its post-extracted biomass into biochars, emphasizing holistic resource utilization. Five were evaluated, testing their antioxidant potential, cytotoxicity, photoprotective effects, anti-inflammatory activity, inhibitory capabilities against enzymes hyaluronidase, collagenase, elastase. The ethyl acetate extract showed highest values in ORAC assay, indicating activity. However, no relevant activity was observed FRAP DPPH assays for other extracts. hydroethanolic exhibited best anti-enzymatic capacity, inhibiting elastase by 88% at 200 μg/mL. It also demonstrated effect reduced ROS production (30%) induced UVB exposure. ethanol significantly concentration tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) response LPS stimulation, converted biochars conventional slow pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), acid-mediated (AMC). contained 56–75% C 22–30% O one synthesized HTC had textural development. biochar obtained AMC better performance improving soil water retention suggesting that acid surface chemistry plays more significant role than porosity. produced have potential as source valuable bioactive compounds biomaterials circular economy framework with wide-ranging applications.
