Valorization of Agriculture Residues into Value‐Added Products: A Comprehensive Review of Recent Studies

The Chemical Record, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 24(8)

Опубликована: Июль 25, 2024

Global agricultural by-products usually go to waste, especially in developing countries where products are exported as raw products. Such waste streams, once converted "value-added" could be an additional source of revenue while simultaneously having positive impacts on the socio-economic well-being local people. We highlight utilization thermochemical techniques activate and convert streams such rice straw husk, coconut fiber, coffee wastes, okara power wastes commonly found world into porous activated carbons biofuels. suitable for various applications environmental remediation, climate mitigation, energy storage, conversions batteries supercapacitors, improving crop productivity producing useful

Reducing CO2 emissions is urgently needed to slow down the impacts of climate change. capture using an amine solution has been developed and implemented at pilot commercial scales. However, scrubbing, in particular, produces a lot degraded solvents as waste energy intensive. Solid sorbents have used overcome these drawbacks. In this work, biomass-derived carbon materials were characterized. Advanced thermal chemical processes, i.e., hydrothermal pyrolysis applied produce from agrifood waste, such soybean okara. It was found that functional groups (-C=O -OH) appeared synthesized materials, implying generation surface oxygenated groups. Preliminary results showed activated carbons obtained with good yields relatively high areas, which may be adsorption solve emission problems.

Kenaf Biochar as an Eco‐Friendly Adsorbent for Removal of Cu(II) and Pb(II): Optimal Temperature, Adsorption Models, and Efficiency Evaluation

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 38(11)

Опубликована: Авг. 6, 2024

ABSTRACT This study examined the adsorption capacities of biochars derived from kenaf (KF‐BCs) for removal heavy metals such as Cu(II) and Pb(II). The thermal decomposition temperature (300–750°C) significantly influenced morphology composition KF‐BCs, enhancing their surface area, pore structure, alkalinity. Among them, pyrolyzed at 750°C (KF‐750) was most effective in removing Pb(II), validated by kinetic, equilibrium, isotherm model analyses. Adsorption kinetics revealed that equilibrium attained after 24 h, with chemisorption governing process rate. Equilibrium conformed to Langmuir Freundlich models respectively. KF‐750 exhibited midrange Pb(II) (23.47 ± 0.3 mg/g 50.07 0.9 mg/g, respectively), compared literature. thermodynamic assessment an endothermic positive ∆ H 0 , indicating higher temperatures favor metal adsorption. At low pH, decreased due electrostatic repulsion, particularly affecting Cu(II). More than 99.8% were removed a 5.00 g/L dose. cation effect order on Ca 2+ > Mg Na + K . Overall, demonstrates promising potential adsorbent efficient aqueous solutions, presenting viable option environmental remediation.
