The comprehensive separation and utilization of whole components of lignocellulosic materials has received extensive attention in present research. This study focused on the efficacy of alkali treatment for enzymatic saccharification of cellulose based on p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH) pretreated bamboo substrate. The results showed that the cellulose to glucose conversion yield was 94.69 % under optimized conditions of 0.4 g NaOH/g, 160 °C and 4 h (soaked), which after only 6 h enzymatic hydrolysis time. Alkali lignin recovery was 88.51 %, with potential for conversion to lignin derivatives. The yield of hemicellulose in the pretreated filtrate was 51.85 % after the 4th cycling reuse of p-TsOH. This work has borrowed the advantages of p-TsOH pretreatment of depolymerized hemicellulose from bamboo, combined with a low-priced weak alkali secondary treatment method, which can be effectively applied to the co-production of lignin, xylooligosaccharide, xylose and glucose, and the whole process is green and economically sustainable.

High-temperature wastewaters can themselves activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) to remove aromatic contaminants via polymerization. This, however, may result in an insufficient carbon source for denitrification during biochemical treatment, and the formed polymers, without a proper reuse method, will be costly to handle as hazardous waste. This study demonstrates that the addition of NaOH can suppress the polymerization of aromatic contaminants, which is observed not only in simulated wastewater but also in actual coking wastewater (ACW).

Alkaline salts have more severe adverse effects on plant growth and development than neutral salts do. However, the adaptive mechanisms of plants to alkaline salt stress remain poorly understood, especially at the molecular level. The Songnen Plain in northeast China is composed of typical 'soda' saline-alkali soil, with NaHCO and NaCO as the predominant alkaline salts (pH ≥ 9.

In this study, we utilized drinking water treatment sludge (WTS) to produce adsorbents through the drying and calcination process. These adsorbents were then evaluated for their ability to remove azithromycin (AZT) from aqueous solutions. The L-500 adsorbent, derived from the calcination (at 500°C) of WTS generated under conditions of low turbidity in the drinking water treatment plant, presented an increase in the specific surface area from 70.

Purpose: Corneal alkali burns are severe ocular injuries characterized by intense inflammation, tissue damage, and vision impairment, with current treatments often insufficient in restoring corneal function and clarity. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of recombinant thrombomodulin domain 1 (rTMD1) in the treatment of corneal alkali burns, focusing on its impact on inflammation, tissue repair, fibrosis, and neovascularization.
Methods: A murine model of corneal alkali burn was utilized to investigate the therapeutic potential of rTMD1.
