In recent years, chemical activation of hydrochar (a solid material from hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) lignocellulosic biomass) has been shown to be effective in producing advanced porous materials. However, the linkage between properties and porosity hydrochar-based carbon hydrochar) not yet clearly explored. present study, results indicated that (including stability, thermal recalcitrance, aromaticity polarity) were greatly affected by HTC process (peak temperature retention time)....

Hydrochar is a carbonaceous material derived from hydrothermal liquefaction, and it carries good potential as new for environmental applications. However, little known about the dissolved organic matter (DOM) associated with hydrochar consequences of its release. The relationship between production temperature characteristics DOM released well biotoxicity was investigated using suite advanced molecular spectroscopic tools. With increase in temperature, resulted hydrochar-based contained...

Introduction: Medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs), such as n-caproate, are potential valuable platform chemicals. MCFAs can be produced from low-grade organic residues by anaerobic reactor microbiomes through two subsequent biological processes: hydrolysis combined with acidogenesis and elongation. Continuous elongation becomes effective when the targeted MCFA(s) at high concentrations rates, while excessive ethanol oxidation base consumption limited. The objective of this study was to develop...

Waste Sedum plumbizincicola, a zinc (Zn) hyperaccumulator during phytoremediation, was recycled via subcritical hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) reaction into multiple streams of products, including hydrochar, bio-oil, and carboxylic acids. Results show approximately 90% Zn released from the S. plumbizincicola biomass HTL at an optimized temperature 220 °C, release risk mitigated for hydrochar production. The low-Zn (∼200 mg/kg compared to original plant 1558 mg/kg) further upgraded porous...

China is undergoing unprecedented rapid urbanization, which accompanied by the formation of more than 2000 black and odorous urban rivers. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) an essential component in aquatic ecosystems regulates carbon nutrient cycle, but its characteristics highly polluted rivers are still not well understood. Here, water samples from mainstream, tributaries, ponds, reservoirs within urbanized Maozhou River watershed (Shenzhen, China) were analyzed using absorption fluorescence...

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) is an aqueous-phase procedure to prepare charred material using biomass. To obtain a with high porosity, ash content, and thermal recalcitrance, it necessary investigate the influence of HTC conditions (peak temperature, retention time, feedstock type) on properties hydrochar its derived pyrolysis char (HDPC). Additionally, relative importance these for selected was also investigated by heterogeneity index. The results indicated that both HDPC samples were...

Facilitating the anaerobic degradation of long chain fatty acids (LCFA) is key to unlock energy potential lipids-rich wastewater. In this study, feasibility psychrophilic treatment LCFA-containing dairy wastewater was assessed and compared mesophilic treatment. The results showed that at 15 ℃ feasible for wastewater, with high removal rates soluble COD (>90%) LCFA (∼100%). However, efficient long-term required prior acclimation biomass temperatures. microbial community analysis revealed...

Chain elongation is an open-culture fermentation process that facilitates conversion of organic residues with additional electron donor, such as ethanol, into valuable n-caproate. Open-culture processes are catalyzed by undefined consortium microorganisms which typically also bring undesired (competing) processes. Inhibition competing processes, syntrophic ethanol oxidation, will lead to a more selective n-caproate production process. In this study, we investigated the effect concentration...

Hydrochar derived from hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) has been recognized as a promising carbonaceous material for environmental remediation. Organic solvents are widely used to extract bio-oil hydrochar after HTC, but the effects of solvent extraction on characteristics have not investigated. This study comprehensively analyzed different washing times and types properties. The results indicate that mass loss by tetrahydrofuran occurred mainly in first 90 min, ratios elements followed...
