The performance of the bioelectrochemical anaerobic digestion (BEAD) reactor was investigated with different carbon material-modified electrodes for the methanation of maize straw. The carbon material-modified electrodes used titanium (Ti) mesh modified with carbon nanotube (CNT), carbon black (CB), and activated carbon (AC). The maximum cumulative methane production obtained in the Ti-CNT reactor was (616.4 ± 9.3) mL/g VS, while the maximum methane production rate in the Ti-AC reactor was (61.9 ± 1.0) mL/g VS.d.The electroactive bacteria were well enriched by the different electrodes, and the enriched electroactive bacteria further facilitate the direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) for methane production. Additionally, we found the phylum Firmicutes showed a linear relationship to methanogenic performance, as well as the Genus Proteiniborus. The Ti-CNT electrode shows better performance by the electrochemical analysis. These findings provide critical knowledge for the large-scale use of the BEAD process and the treatment of maize straw.

The efficient degradation of SAs is a significant challenge for the treatment of wastewater. To address this, the FeS@BC was prepared by calcining a mixture of pyrite and biomass, and used to activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) to degrade sulfadiazine (SDZ). The effect of carbon sources (wheat straw, rice husk, and corn cob) on catalytic activity of FeS@BC were investigated by Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), total Fe dissolution and free radical quantification.

In order to fully utilize the resources of agricultural waste in Gansu Province's semi-arid area. Local commercial organic fertilizer (ST1) was selected as the control, and four kinds of planting and breeding waste composts (PBCs) were designed with sheep manure (SM), cow manure (CM), tail vegetable (TV), mushroom residue (MR), and corn straw (CS) to study the effects of the different PBC formulations on the yield and quality of mini Chinese cabbage. In contrast to local commercial organic fertilizer, the STS (SM:TV:CS = 6:3:1) treatment increased the economic yield by 5.

Increasing carbon (C) sequestration and stability in agricultural soils is a key strategy to mitigate climate change towards C neutrality. Crop diversification is an initiative to increase C sequestration in fields, but it is unclear how legume-based crop diversification impacts the functional components of soil organic carbon (SOC) in dryland, including the formation and transformation of particulate organic carbon (POC) and mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC). We investigated the decomposition of straw residues, the fate of photosynthesized C, as well as the formation of MAOC and POC fractions using an in situC labeling technique in the soybean-wheat intercropping, soybean-maize intercropping and their respective monocropping systems, with and without cover crops.

Rice, wheat, and maize grains are staple foods, widely consumed for their mineral and nutritional values. However, they can accumulate toxic elements from contaminated soils, posing health risks. This study investigates the bioaccumulation patterns of 52 elements (including nutrients, heavy metals, and rare earth elements) in various parts (grain, husk, straw, and root) of cereals grown in a heavily polluted region.

As a newly developed technology, lignocellulose pretreatment of PHP (phosphoric acid coupled with hydrogen peroxide) can facilitate the enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated lignocellulose for glucose production. It also has been found that the derived oxidative tail gas from pretreatment can facilely degrade organic pollutant. To balance the pollutant degradation and the glucose yield, the collaborative optimization on pretreatment was investigated.
