Exolaccase-propelled humification (E-PH) helps eliminate phenolic pollutants and produce macromolecular precipitates. Herein, we investigated the influencing mechanism of 12 humic precursors (HPs) on exolaccase-enabled bisphenol A (BPA) decontamination and humification. Catechol, vanillic acid, caffeic acid, and gentian acid not only expedited BPA removal but also created large amounts of copolymeric precipitates. These precipitates had rich functional groups similar to natural humic substances, which presented great aromatic and acidic characteristics. The releasing amounts of BPA monomer from four precipitates were 0.08-12.87% at pH 2.0-11.0, suggesting that BPA-HP copolymers had pH stability. More excitingly, certain copolymeric precipitates could stimulate the growth and development of radish seedlings. The radish growth-promotion mechanisms of copolymers were involved in two aspects: (1) Copolymers interacted with root exudates to accelerate nutrient uptake; (2) Copolymers released auxins to provoke radish growth. These results may provide an innovative strategy for decontaminating phenolic pollutants and yielding humic-like biostimulants in E-PH.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how root exudates from different plants affect the biodegradation of 6:2 Fluorotelomer alcohol (FTOH), a type of PFAS, in the environment.
- Both dicot (Arabidopsis thaliana) and monocot (Brachypodium distachyon) exudates boost the breakdown of 6:2 FTOH when combined with a specific bacteria, Rhodococcus jostii RHA1.
- The findings suggest that enhancing root exudates and using bioaugmentation can improve the removal of PFAS contaminants from soil, indicating potential strategies for soil remediation.

Emerging demand for humic substances escalated the short supply of coal-related resources from which humic substances are extracted in large quantities for various applications. Production of humic-like substances from lignocellulosic waste materials similar in structural and functional properties to humic substances has gained interest recently. Tea waste is a by-product from tea manufacturing factories enriched in lignocellulose is used to extract two types of humic fractions.

Humic-like substances (HLSs) isolated by alkaline oxidative hydrolysis from lignin-rich agro-industrial residues have been shown to exert biostimulant activity toward maize ( L.) germination and early growth. The definition of a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) between HLS and their bioactivity could be useful to predict their biological properties and tailor plant biostimulants for specific agronomic and industrial uses.

Digestate valorization is a key challenge for the feasibility of Anaerobic Digestion plants. In this study, humic-like substances (HLS) extracted from two digestates (sewage sludge and manure) were used for the biostimulation of hydroponic cultures of Lactuca sativa (lettuce) at different doses and compared to a commercial reference of leonardite HLS. Aerial biomass increase averages ranged from 7 to 30 %, but the results presented a high coefficient of variation (around 20 %).
