The prolonged duration of phytoremediation poses a risk heavy metal dispersal to the surrounding environment. This study investigated combined remediation approach for cadmium (Cd)- and arsenic (As)-contaminated soil by integrating with stabilization techniques. Bidens pilosa was utilized as phytoremediator, steel slag, pyrolusite, FeSO4 were employed stabilizing agents in pot experiments. Key metrics such moisture content, root length, plant height, concentrations measured evaluate efficacy. Additionally, bioavailability, leaching toxicity, chemical forms Cd As, along other properties, analyzed. results indicated that optimal restoration effect achieved combining stabilizers ratio 2:1:10. dosage these materials found be 9% weight. Mechanistic studies, including speciation analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), microbial community diversity revealed effects primarily due interactions anionic cationic ions, chelation organic acids secreted roots, enhanced activity. A cost–benefit analysis demonstrated technical, economic, commercial viability approach.

Tea, the world’s second most traded commodity, significantly impacts economies of producing countries. However, prolonged cultivation leads to soil degradation, particularly through acidification and depletion essential nutrients, which adversely affects tea quality. This study investigates effects biomass materials—biochar, organic fertilizer, bio-organic fertilizer—on both quality properties. The results revealed that all treatments improved catechin index (CQI) tea, with fertilizer (BOF) yielding highest CQI at 629.41, followed closely by biochar (624.16) (581.34). Soil analysis indicated increased pH from 4.53 5.54, total carbon 194.6% (from 12.61 g kg−1 24.42 kg−1), nitrogen levels 11.7% 14.91 mg 16.17 while reducing soluble salts significantly. Furthermore, enhanced enzyme activities, urease acid phosphatase increasing up 136.6% 149.5%, respectively. Correlation significant positive relationships, amino content correlating (r = 0.62, p < 0.05) polyphenols positively available potassium 0.60, 0.05). demonstrates integrating materials into not only enhances but also contributes health, supporting sustainable garden management practices.

Biowaste valorisation into high-value compounds is one of the main challenges green chemistry, as chemicals produced from biological sources are identified key substances in development a low-carbon and circular bioeconomy connection with transition fossil to renewable feedstocks. The review summarizes production products such glucose-based chemicals, phenolic volatile-fatty acids prepared biomass waste. pretreatment methods milling, filtration extraction followed by current non-catalytic microwave or ultrasound catalytic for value-added presence various catalyst types conventional, nano enzyme form listed focus on applied food, cosmetic pharmaceutical industries. economic feasibility, technical aspects concept biorefinery briefly mentioned, emphasizing necessity life cycle assessment each bioproduct technological process. Finally, it provides future perspective makes recommendations potential research strategies, recognizing importance utilizing waste useful an attractive environmentally friendly approach whose should be encouraged. utilization biowaste shows high potential, however, there still many resolved throughout entire chain, reflecting technological, economic, ecological, sociological long-term issues.
