The escalating challenge of waste management demands innovative strategies to mitigate environmental impacts and harness valuable resources. This study investigates waste-to-energy (WtE) technologies for municipal in Kočevje, Slovenia. An analysis available streams reveals substantial energy potential from mixed waste, biodegradable livestock manure. Various WtE technologies, including incineration, pyrolysis, gasification, anaerobic digestion, are compared. results show that processing using thermochemical processes could annually yield up 0.98 GWh electricity, and, separately, 3.22 useable heat district heating or industrial applications.

Abstract Selective oxidation is still a challenge for targeted conversion of biomass derived substance to high‐value added products. Herein we report an efficient electrochemical strategy transform phenol into p ‐benzoquinone, by tandem oxidations CuSO 4 and CoSO catalysts in electrolyte. Co 3+ generated at the anode from 2+ diffuses solution reacts with form hydroquinone, which subsequently oxidized Cu selectively ‐benzoquinone. The active metal ions (Cu ) are continuously regenerated through electrooxidation ‐benzoquinone accumulated electrolyte solution. Ultraviolet‐visible spectra test results reveal that hydroquinone immediately, remains stable By optimizing catalyst concentrations reaction temperatures (0.2 M , 0.005 50 °C), highest yield was improved 47 %. developed copper‐cobalt co‐catalyzed system provides promising approach prepare benzoquinone compounds under mild conditions.

Lignin, with its rich reserves of phenolic compounds, holds great promise as a candidate for renewable energy and valuable chemical production. However, the complex molecular structure low reactivity lignin have impeded progress in this research direction. Consequently, depolymerization into high-value small-molecule chemicals has become new area focus. Metal metal oxides emerged promising catalyst to overcome obstacle due their high selectivity depolymerizing mild reaction conditions required. This paper reviews properties, products various used under microwave, pyrolysis, hydrogenolysis, oxidation conditions. The prospects challenges oxide degradation are summarized pave way future applications development depolymerization.
