Globally, the companies that make commercial use of bamboo culms produce different kinds solid waste rich in lignocellulosic biomass, which some cases is not used and discarded landfills or incinerated open air; losing possibility recovering them using other productive sectors. The research objective were to a biochar from Guadua agustifolia Kunth sawdust, evaluate its potential environmental agricultural use, obtain biochar/TiO2 composite inactivate Escherichia coli as soil conditioner medicinal plants producing phenolic compounds flavonoids. Biochar (produced at 300 °C for 1 h) involved TiO2 450 h inactivation E. (initial concentration: 6.5 ± 0.3 Log10 CFU mL− 1). For agriculture, 2% was B. pilosa L. G. angustifolia plant growth 90 days. had high photocatalytic activity on coli, generating final count 1.97 0.2 after 60 min. (2%) increased total phenol flavonoid content phenols angustifolia, tested nursery stage. This study provides new information conversion sawdust an alternative bio-based materials with applications. In addition, obtaining could positively impact production chain Colombia because renewable globally accepted alternatives help capture gaseous emissions causing greenhouse effect.

This work aims to develop a comprehensive kinetic and simulation study of biodiesel production using waste cooking oil (WCO) catalyzed by blast furnace slag geopolymer (BFSG) as heterogeneous catalyst. The investigation was established following the pseudo-first second-order model three reaction parameters, namely, temperature (40–60 °C), time (4–8 h) catalyst ratio (6–14 wt.%), while maintaining constant methanol-to-oil composition 40 wt.%. geopolymer-catalyzed transesterification process simulated ChemCAD version 8.1.0, which incorporates four major triglycerides (triolein, tripalmitin, tristearin triolein) WCO. results WCO in plug flow reactor (PFR) demonstrated good fit data, with an R2 above 0.96 both cases. pseudo-first-order (PFO) revealed more favorable pathway, activation energy 58.876 kJ.mol−1, opposed value 131.369 kJ.mol−1 obtained from pseudo-second-order (PSO) analysis. catalytic activity BFSG yielded maximum conversion 99.18% at 12 wt.% ratio. effectiveness promising low-cost technology for industry.

Due to the shortage in availability of potable water risk scarcity has reached its heights. Researchers have developed methods increase various ways. Solar desalination technique using solar still would assure efficient yield. Thermal energy plays an essential role output efficiency PV panel and production still. The purpose our paper is focused on optimisation thermal properties Aluminium, Copper Iron. To obtain optimised value namely conductivity expansion approach called response surface methodology used. It reduce count which experiment repeated as it a pre-determined set input parameters further helps cost reduction. are volume percentage Aluminium-0.17 percentage, Copper-2.42 Iron-2.64 percentage. optimized values obtained expansion. A method two-probe used for determining Buoyancy considered samples. inferred from ANOVA. For conductivity, Adjusted R 2 0.9796 0.9032. Standard Deviation observed be 0.202 whereas Mean 0.4666. resulting 0.467 W/(m*K) 1.534*10 −5 (1/K). This ensured reduced repetition experimental run identify optimal system through central composite design.
