The use of biochar for soil improvement and emission reduction has been widely recognized its excellent performance. However, the choice feedstock pyrolysis temperature production significantly affects surface parameters interactions with substances. In this study, we retrieved 465 peer-reviewed papers on application in reducing greenhouse gas emissions nutrient losses analyzed changes physicochemical from different pyrolytic temperatures. Molecular simulation computing technology was also used to explore impacts these interaction between statistical results indicated that derived wood-based exhibits superior physical characteristics, such as increased porosity specific area. Conversely, straw-based found contain element content, O, N, H, straw produced at low temperatures contains a significant number functional groups enhance charge transfer potential adsorption stability by increasing density, distribution bonding orbitals. it should be noted enhancement may activate certain recalcitrant C compounds promote decomposition. Taken together, have implications practitioners when selecting suitable based agricultural needs their understanding mechanism

A comparative analysis of pre-treatment technologies for enhanced biogas production from anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic waste

Industrial Crops and Products, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 215, P. 118591 - 118591

Published: April 26, 2024

In recent decades, biogas production from anaerobic digestion of organic fractions municipal solid waste and agricultural residues has emerged as a promising strategy for management renewable energy generation. However, due to the complexity heterogeneity these feedstocks, an appropriate pre-treatment is required before maximise biodegradability enhance production. This especially true lignocellulosic biomass, where maximum potential often difficult reach presence lignin barrier, which not easily biodegradable. Pre-treatment technologies may significantly increase production, up 360 %, residues. paper first provides overview technologies, including mechanical, chemical, biological, thermal, plasma, combined treatments wide variety feedstocks digestion. These studies indicate that selection technology mainly depends on substrate characteristics, desired end results, resource availability. Furthermore, most emphasise significance balancing benefits drawbacks sustainable waste-to-energy practices. Then, article evaluates scalability, technical feasibility, economic viability, industrial applicability environmental sustainability methods. review will be valuable researchers, policymakers, practitioners working in field conversion through

A growing need to reduce the global carbon footprint has prompted all sectors make significant efforts in this direction. For example, there been much focus on green fiber sustainability. it was found that polyaromatic heteropolymer lignin might act as an intermediary synthesising fiber. Biomass is seen a potential accommodated solid natural sources protects nature and big overall supply widespread distribution. With environmental concern recent years, biomass gained appeal raw material for production of fibers. Especially, positives include its reasonable budget, sustainability, higher content, which makes dominating precursor. This review examined variety bio precursors help produce have concentrations. In addition, research plant sources, types, factors affecting synthesis, spinning methods, stabilization, carbonization, activation characterisation techniques used comprehend structure features. overview applications use provided.

The glass transition temperature of isolated native, residual, and technical lignin

Holzforschung, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 78(4), P. 216 - 230

Published: March 4, 2024

Abstract The glass transition temperatures ( T g ) of native, residual, and technical lignins are important to lignocellulose pulping, pulp processing side stream utilization; however, how the structural changes from native residual lignin influences has proven difficult elucidate. Since macromolecules is greatly influenced by molecular weight, low-molecular-weight fractions, such as milled wood (MWL), poor representatives in cell wall. To circumvent this problem, both high yield purity were isolated Norway spruce softwood kraft using enzymatic mild acidolysis (EMAL) protocol. Technical was also fractionated into groups different weights, acquire that spanned over a wide molecular-weight range. A powder sample holder for dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), used determine lignins, which calorimetric methods not sensitive enough. s EMAL found be closer their situ counterparts than MWL.
