In this study, effects of three iron (oxyhydr)oxides on the biogas residue composting, i.e., composting with goethite (CFe1), hematite (CFe2) or magnetite (CFe3), were investigated. Results showed that composting performance of CFe1 was much better than those of CFe2 and CFe3 Addition of goethite increased temperature of CFe1 and enhanced lignin humification. More than 31.49% of Fe(III) in goethite was reduced to amorphous Fe(II) during the composting, suggesting that goethite worked as electron acceptor for microbial metabolism and heat generation. The functional bacteria Chloroflexi and Actinobacteria, and genes encoding key enzymes (AA1 family), which play essential roles in humification of lignin, were enriched in CFe1. Besides, goethite reduced 10.96% organic matter (OM) loss probably by increasing the molecular size and aggregation of OM for its protection during the composting. This study shows that adding goethite is an efficient strategy to enhancing the humification of lignin-rich biowaste.

In this study, polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG200) was employed as hydrogen bond acceptor, while organic acids served as hydrogen bond donors, to formulate poly-deep eutectic solvents (PDESs), which were utilized to pretreat tea stem. Specially, combining PEG200 and oxalic acid (OA) exhibited a notably high cellulose retention (82.03 %) and most efficient hemicellulose (97.

The inherent heterogeneity, poor compatibility with polymers, and dark color of lignin limit its application in composites. In this study, original lignin (OL) was fractionated sequentially using four green organic solvents to obtain lignin fractions with different chemical structures. These well-defined lignin fractions were then blended with polybutylene succinate (PBS) to fabricate biocomposites.

Background: The composition of anaerobically digested sludge is inherently complex, enriched with structurally complex organic compounds and nitrogenous constituents, which are refractory to biodegradation. These characteristics limit the subsequent rational utilization of resources from anaerobically digested sludge. White-rot fungi (WRF) have garnered significant research interest due to their exceptional capacity to degrade complex and recalcitrant organic pollutants.

The development of green and easily regulated amphiphilic particles is crucial for advancing Pickering emulsion catalysis. In this study, lignin particles modified via sulfobutylation were employed as solid emulsifiers to support Pd nanoparticles (NPs), thereby enhancing the catalytic efficiency of biphasic reactions. Sulfobutylation of lignin effectively adjusted the hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance, resulting in controlled emulsion types and droplet sizes.

Attributable to sulfur's significant theoretical energy density, its affordability, and its environmentally friendly nature, lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) are recognized as advanced energy storage technologies with considerable potential. Nonetheless, the solubility and migration of polysulfides within the electrolyte substantially hinder their practical implementation. To address this issue, we developed a nitrogen-doped two-dimensional (2D) wavy carbon nanosheet material (NCN) by using the Pickering emulsion templating method.
