Iron-anchored nitrogen/doped carbon single-atom nanozymes (Fe-N/C), which possess homogeneous active sites and adjustable catalytic environment, represent an exemplary model for investigating the structure-function relationship and catalytic activity. However, the development of pyrolysis-free synthesis technique for Fe-N/C with adjustable enzyme-mimicking activity still presents a significant challenge. Herein, Fe-N/C anchored three carrier morphologies were created via a pyrolysis-free approach by covalent organic polymers.

Agricultural waste, which is produced in large quantities annually, can be a threat to the environment. Biochar (BC) production represents a potential solution for reducing the amount of grapevine pruning residues and, accordingly, the impact on the environment and climate change. Biochar produced by the process of pyrolysis from grapevine pruning residues was investigated and characterized to be applied as an adsorbent of polyphenolic compounds with the aim of using the waste from viticultural production to obtain a quality product with adsorption and recovery potential.

Caffeic acid (CA) is widely present in the human daily diet, and a reliable CA detection method is beneficial to food safety. Herein, we constructed a CA electrochemical sensor employing a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) which was modified by the bimetallic Pd-Ru nanoparticles decorated N-doped spongy porous carbon obtained by pyrolysis of the energetic metal-organic framework (MET). The high-energy bond N-NN in MET explodes to form N-doped sponge-like carbon materials (N-SCs) with porous structures, boosting the adsorptive capacity for CA.

Through VO etching of ZIF-67 and subsequent pyrolysis in an argon flow, the V doped Co@NC (V/Co@NC) with mixed-valence Co(II)/Co(III) and V(III)/V(IV) was successfully obtained. V doping plays an important role in regulating the enzyme-like activity of Co@NC. Specifically, the Co@NC has both oxidase-like activity and peroxidase-mimic activity, while the V/Co@NC possesses the specific oxidase-like activity.

Genetic engineering is a powerful tool to steer bio-oil composition towards the production of speciality chemicals such as guaiacols, syringols, phenols, and vanillin through well-defined biomass feedstocks. Our previous work demonstrated the effects of lignin biosynthesis gene modification on the pyrolysis vapour compositions obtained from wood derived from greenhouse-grown poplars. In this study, field-grown poplars downregulated in the genes encoding CINNAMYL ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE (), CAFFEIC ACID O-METHYLTRANSFERASE () and CAFFEOYL-CoA O-METHYLTRANSFERASE (), and their corresponding wild type were pyrolysed in a Py-GC/MS.
