Biochar for agronomy, animal farming, anaerobic digestion, composting, water treatment, soil remediation, construction, energy storage, and carbon sequestration: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 20(4), С. 2385 - 2485

Опубликована: Май 7, 2022

Abstract In the context of climate change and circular economy, biochar has recently found many applications in various sectors as a versatile recycled material. Here, we review application biochar-based for carbon sink, covering agronomy, animal farming, anaerobic digestion, composting, environmental remediation, construction, energy storage. The ultimate storage reservoirs are soils, civil infrastructure, landfills. Biochar-based fertilisers, which combine traditional fertilisers with nutrient carrier, promising agronomy. use feed additive animals shows benefits terms growth, gut microbiota, reduced enteric methane production, egg yield, endo-toxicant mitigation. Biochar enhances digestion operations, primarily biogas generation upgrading, performance sustainability, mitigation inhibitory impurities. composts, controls release greenhouse gases microbial activity. Co-composted improves soil properties crop productivity. Pristine engineered can also be employed water remediation to remove pollutants. added cement or asphalt, thus conferring structural functional advantages. Incorporating biocomposites insulation, electromagnetic radiation protection moisture control. Finally, synthesising materials requires additional functionalisation.

Advanced adsorbents for ibuprofen removal from aquatic environments: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 22(1), С. 373 - 418

Опубликована: Авг. 25, 2023

Abstract The presence of pharmaceuticals in ecosystems is a major health issue, calling for advanced methods to clean wastewater before effluents reach rivers. Here, we review adsorption remove ibuprofen, with focus on ibuprofen occurrence and toxicity, adsorbents, kinetics, isotherms. Adsorbents include carbon- silica-based materials, metal–organic frameworks, clays, polymers, bioadsorbents. Carbon-based adsorbents allow the highest from 10.8 408 mg/g activated carbon 2.5–1033 biochar. Metal–organic frameworks appear promising due their high surface areas tunable properties morphology. 95% published reports reveal that kinetics follow pseudo-second-order model, indicating predominantly governed by chemical adsorption. 70% disclose Langmuir model describes isotherm, suggesting involves monolayer

Sugarcane Bagasse: Challenges and Opportunities for Waste Recycling

Clean Technologies, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 6(2), С. 662 - 699

Опубликована: Июнь 3, 2024

Sugarcane has primarily been used for sugar and ethanol production. It creates large quantities of residual lignocellulosic biomass such as sugarcane bagasse, leaves, tops, vinasse. Biomass is a sustainable prospect biorefineries aiming to optimize production processes. We detail recent research developments in recycling sugarcane, including energy generation pyrolysis obtain biofuels, example. To produce biochar, the cost operating at high temperatures large-scale remain obstacles. The prospects can be enhanced by pellet production; however, it requires an improvement quality control long-term storage or long-distance transportation. In civil construction, materials still need prove their efficiency reliability. Related adsorbent materials, use bagasse advantage being low-cost environmentally friendly. Nevertheless, extraction, functionalization, modification cellulose fibers, improve adsorption properties even mode operation, challenges. synthesis nanostructures lacking yields ability scale up. Finally, controlling dispersion orientation avoiding fiber agglomeration could mechanical response composites using bagasse. different possibilities its residues reinforce importance this material industry global economy. Thus, present work addresses current challenges perspectives industrial processes involving support future on waste-derived subjects.
