[Research on sorption and transport characteristics of ligninolytic enzymes in different compost substances].

To understand the characteristics of ligninolytic enzymes sorption and transport in different compost substances, ligninolytic enzymes adsorption on soil, vegetable leaf, rice straw and chaff was comparatively studied through batch jar tests and relevant kinetics and isotherm equilibrium were discussed as well as a column experiment was performed to study the process of transport. The results showed that the sorption efficiency was depended on the sorts of substances. The adsorptive capacities of soil, vegetable leaf, rice straw and chaff to lignin peroxidase (LiP) were 1.

Changes of microbial population structure related to lignin degradation during lignocellulosic waste composting.

Microbial populations and their relationship to bioconversion during lignocellulosic waste composting were studied by quinone profiling. Nine quinones were observed in the initial composting materials, and 15 quinones were found in compost after 50days of composting. The quinone species Q-9(H2), Q-10 and Q-10(H2) which are indicative of certain fungi appeared at the thermophilic stage but disappeared at the cooling stage.

[Analysis of the effect of enzymes on microbial community metabolic profiles during composting using biolog method].

The effects of enzymes on organic material degradation and microbial communities metabolic profiles during composting process were studied using Biolog method, and together with cluster analysis and PCA. The results showed that, adding the enzyme solution in the composting could increase the degradation rate of organic material by 4.90%.

Degradation of lead-contaminated lignocellulosic waste by Phanerochaete chrysosporium and the reduction of lead toxicity.

Lead, as one of the most hazardous heavy metals to the environment interferes with lignocellulosic biomass bioconversion and carbon cycles in nature. The degradation of lead-polluted lignocellulosic waste and the restrain of lead hazards by solid-state fermentation with Phanerochaete chrysosporium were studied. Phanerochaete chrysosporium effectively degraded lignocellulose, formed humus and reduced active lead ions, even at the concentration of 400 mg/kg dry mass of lead.
