The continuous advancement of human endeavours, especially through industrialization, has led to the production of substantial quantities of wastewater contaminated with heavy metals. The conversion of agricultural waste into low-cost adsorbent value-added goods has garnered interest in recent years. This work involved the preparation of MBP by the coprecipitation process, utilizing a 50:50 (w/w%) ratio of banana peels (BP) and magnetite (MF). The physicochemical properties (morphology, thermal degradation and surface area) of MBP were evaluated, and its efficacy as an adsorbent for the removal of lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) in aqueous media was examined as a function of pH (2–6), MBP dose (2–10 g/L), starting concentration (50–250 mg/L), and contact time (10–150 min). Adsorption kinetics studies indicated that equilibrium was reached after 30 min at pH 4 and at pH 5 Pb (II) and Cu (II), respectively. Five isotherms (Freundlich, Langmuir, Dubinin–Radushkevich (d-R), Redlich–Peterson (R–P) and Temkin) were utilized to evaluate the experimental results. Linear regression analysis was conducted for these models to ascertain the isotherm parameters. Additionally, the kinetic data were evaluated using pseudo-first order (PFO), pseudo-second order (PSO), Elovich, and intraparticle diffusion models. The adsorption kinetics for Cu (II) and Pb (II) adhered to the pseudo-second-order model with R²> 0.99, indicating a chemical character of the adsorption process. The adsorption isotherm data were precisely described using the Temkin model for Cu (II) and the Freundlich model for Pb (II), with coefficients of determination of 0.9851 and 0.9991, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacities for copper and lead (>90 %) by MBP indicates its potential as an alternative adsorbent for the extraction of heavy metals from industrial effluent.

人类活动的不断进步，特别是工业化的不断进步，导致了大量被重金属污染的废水的产生。近年来，将农业废物转化为低成本的吸附剂增值产品引起了人们的兴趣。这项工作涉及通过共沉淀法制备MBP，利用50:50 （w/w%）比例的香蕉皮（BP）和磁铁矿（MF）。考察了MBP的物理化学性质（形貌、热降解和表面积），并考察了其作为吸附剂对水中介质中铅（Pb）和铜（Cu）的去除效果与pH（2-6）、MBP剂量（2-10 g/L）、起始浓度（50-250 mg/L）和接触时间（10-150 min）的关系。吸附动力学研究表明，Pb （II）和Cu （II）分别在pH 4和pH 5条件下吸附30 min后达到平衡。采用Freundlich、Langmuir、Dubinin-Radushkevich （d-R）、Redlich-Peterson （R-P）和Temkin五条等温线对实验结果进行评价。对这些模型进行线性回归分析，确定等温线参数。此外，采用伪一阶（PFO）、伪二阶（PSO）、Elovich和颗粒内扩散模型对动力学数据进行了评估。Cu （II）和Pb （II）的吸附动力学服从拟二阶模型，R2> 0.99，表明吸附过程具有化学特征。吸附等温线数据分别用Temkin模型和Freundlich模型对Cu （II）和Pb （II）进行了精确描述，测定系数分别为0.9851和0.9991。MBP对铜和铅的最大吸附能力（90%）表明其作为工业废水中重金属提取的替代吸附剂的潜力。

The growing threats of water scarcity, climate change, and waste accumulation necessitate innovative solutions, including the transformation of solid waste into sustainable new materials through recycling technologies. This study prepared a low-cost, superior and biodegradable polymeric material made of cellulose nanocrystals from waste paper and pulp sludge, nylon-6 waste, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, and chitosan. The nanocomposite membrane presented saturation magnetization of 26.90 emu/g, significantly lower than magnetic saturation (Ms) of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄). This resulted from the addition of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), nylon 6 (N6), and Chitosan (CT), as confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the ultra-permeable membrane had highly porous surfaces. Brunauer Emmet Teller (BET) demonstrated that the addition of chitosan and Fe₃O₄ boosted nitrogen adsorption. The isoelectric point (IEP) pH at zero point charge (pHPZC) of magnetized cellulose nanocrystals/nylon 6 nanocomposite membrane encapsulated with chitosan (CNCs/N6@Fe₃O₄CT) was 7.9 due to the hydroxyl groups on the amphoteric surface that react with bases or acids to create a pHPZC that is extremely near to neutral. The nanocomposite presented a larger swelling ratio of 168.24 g/g than precursor materials. The membrane demonstrated excellent rejection efficiency, initiating at approximately 98 %. The resulting nanocomposite membrane's remarkable water permeability, porosity, good rejection, and flux, even at low pressure, offers a potential for water treatment and air filtration applications.

The global demand for sustainable energy drives the need for alternative fuels, with biodiesel emerging as a promising candidate because it is renewable and eco-friendly. In this study, an optimized biodiesel production process was developed using a blend of Palm kernel oil (PKO) and Jatropha curcas oil (JcO), catalyzed by KOH-supported calcined animal bone waste (KOH/CABW). A response surface methodology (RSM) technique, based on a rotatable central composite design (RCCD), optimizes the transesterification reaction. The variables studied include a methanol-oil molar ratio (v/v), catalyst load (wt%), reaction temperature ( °C), and reaction time (min), with biodiesel yield (%) as the response variable. A Genetic Algorithm-Bayesian optimization (GA-BO) hybrid approach is employed to further enhance biodiesel yield. Fuel properties of biodiesel and catalyst reusability studies are conducted. The result from the RSM analysis, supported by ANOVA, reveals significant statistical relevance of the quadratic model at a 95 % confidence level, accounting for individual process variables, and interactive and quadrative effects. The optimal biodiesel yield from RSM is 86.76 % at optimized conditions. In comparison, the GA-BO hybrid approach results in a higher biodiesel yield of 96.45 %, at modified conditions. Experimental validation of the GA-BO approach further confirms a biodiesel yield of 96.67 %, with fuel properties meeting international biofuel standards. Catalyst reusability studies demonstrate that the KOH/CABW catalyst remains effective and efficient after several transesterification cycles. The findings in this study present an innovative approach to biodiesel production by blending non-edible oils, utilizing advanced optimization techniques, and offering a sustainable energy alternative with minimized environmental impact.

全球对可持续能源的需求推动了对替代燃料的需求，生物柴油因其可再生和环保而成为一个有希望的候选者。本研究以棕榈仁油（PKO）和麻疯树油（JcO）为原料，以KOH/CABW为催化剂，优化了生物柴油的生产工艺。基于可旋转中心复合设计（RCCD）的响应面法（RSM）技术优化了酯交换反应。研究的变量包括甲醇-油摩尔比（v/v）、催化剂负载（wt%）、反应温度（°C）和反应时间（min），反应变量为生物柴油产率（%）。采用遗传算法-贝叶斯优化（GA-BO）混合方法进一步提高生物柴油产量。对生物柴油的燃料特性和催化剂的可重复使用性进行了研究。由方差分析支持的RSM分析结果显示，二次模型在95%的置信度下具有显著的统计相关性，考虑到单个过程变量以及交互和二次效应。在优化条件下，RSM的最佳生物柴油产率为86.76%。相比之下，在改良条件下，GA-BO混合方法的生物柴油产率达到96.45%。GA-BO方法的实验验证进一步证实了生物柴油的产率为96.67%，燃料性能达到国际生物燃料标准。催化剂的可重用性研究表明，KOH/CABW催化剂在经过多次酯交换循环后仍然有效和高效。本研究的发现为生物柴油的生产提供了一种创新的方法，通过混合非食用油，利用先进的优化技术，并提供了一种可持续的能源替代方案，同时将对环境的影响降到最低。

The growing demand for sustainable industrial practices has intensified the need for innovative approaches to managing hazardous waste. In this study, we propose a circular economy-driven method for the synthesis of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and calcium fluoride (CaF₂) nanoparticles from hexafluorosilicic acid (H₂SiF₆), a highly corrosive and toxic by-product of the phosphate fertilizer industry. The process involves reacting H₂SiF₆ with ammonia (NH₃) under controlled conditions to yield high-purity MSNs with tunable properties, including particle sizes ranging from 32 to 85 nm and pore diameters of 2-5 nm. In a second step, the ammonium fluoride (NH₄F) solution obtained as a by-product during the MSN synthesis was treated with calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) to synthesize CaF₂ nanoparticles with an average particle size of 38 nm. The resulting nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), confirming their high purity and nanoscale dimensions. This dual-synthesis approach not only addresses the environmental concerns associated with H₂SiF₆ disposal but also provides valuable nanomaterials for various industrial applications, thus contributing to a circular economy.

由于对可持续工业做法的需求日益增加，因此更需要采用创新办法来管理危险废物。在这项研究中，我们提出了一种循环经济驱动的方法，以六氟硅酸（H2SiF6）为原料合成介孔二氧化硅纳米颗粒（MSNs）和氟化钙纳米颗粒（CaF2）。六氟硅酸是磷肥工业的高腐蚀性和毒性副产物。该工艺包括在受控条件下将H2SiF6与氨（NH3）反应，以产生具有可调性能的高纯度MSNs，包括粒径范围为32至85 nm，孔径为2-5 nm。第二步，用氢氧化钙（Ca(OH)2）处理合成副产物氟化铵（NH4F）溶液，合成平均粒径为38 nm的CaF2纳米颗粒。利用x射线衍射（XRD）、能量色散x射线能谱（EDX）、扫描电子显微镜（SEM）和透射电子显微镜（TEM）对所得纳米颗粒进行了表征，证实了其高纯度和纳米级尺寸。这种双重合成方法不仅解决了与H2SiF6处理相关的环境问题，而且为各种工业应用提供了有价值的纳米材料，从而为循环经济做出了贡献。

This work covers the production of cellulose esters with varying degrees of substitution (DS) using ultrasound (US) power input, leveraging free fatty acids as esterification agent (EA) as a bio-based alternative to traditional chlorides, anhydrides and vinyl esters. The best conditions without US were achieved with oleic acid, with an EA/cellulose molar ratio of 6 and a temperature of 80 °C for 24 h, producing esters with a DS of 1.44. Applying US at 20 kHz and 4.39 W at room temperature, required <30 min to produce cellulose esters with a DS of 0.38. Then, the effects of the US input power, reaction volume and properties of cellulose solutions on the cavitation activity were investigated by simulations in COMSOL. The density, viscosity and speed of sound in the cellulose esters solutions were measured and defined in the simulations as 936.2 kg m^-3, 23.3·10^–3 Pa.s, and 1495.8 m s^-1 for 25 g L^-1. Simulations with conditions resulting in the highest DS with US were characterized by the smallest acoustic cavitation volume and the lowest u: 9.60·10^–8 m³ and 40.06 m s^-1. US-assisted esterification produced thermoplastic esters with an energy input of 18 W g^-1 of cellulose against 93 W g^-1 required by conventional esterification.

这项工作涵盖了使用超声波（US）功率输入生产不同程度取代（DS）的纤维素酯，利用游离脂肪酸作为酯化剂（EA）作为传统氯化物，酸酐和乙烯基酯的生物替代品。在无US条件下，以油酸为最佳反应条件，EA/纤维素摩尔比为6，反应温度为80℃，反应时间为24 h，所得酯的DS为1.44。在室温下，在20 kHz和4.39 W下施加US，需要30分钟才能产生DS为0.38的纤维素酯。然后，通过COMSOL模拟研究了美国输入功率、反应体积和纤维素溶液性质对空化活性的影响。测量了纤维素酯溶液中的密度、粘度和声速，并在模拟中定义为936.2 kg m- 3,23.3·10-3 Pa。25 g L-1为1495.8 m s-1。在具有US的最大DS条件下，声空化体积最小，u最小，分别为9.60·10-8 m3和40.06 m s-1。催化酯化反应产生热塑性酯，纤维素的能量输入为18w - g-1，而常规酯化反应所需能量为93w - g-1。

This review article initiates a series of three, focusing on the chemistry and practical applications of surfactants. These compounds play essential roles in wetting, cleaning, emulsifying, dispersing, and exhibiting anti-foaming and foaming properties across various sectors, including agricultural chemicals, cosmetics, microemulsions, polymer latex systems, biocides, pharmaceuticals, and food products. Through a comprehensive examination of eighteen volumes from the seminal surfactant improvement and development series, the ICI Surface Actives and Detergents, coupled with extensive patent searches, the remarkable diversity in the chemical structures of commercially available surfactants is unveiled. The series focuses on surfactants used in various commercial products, including fabric softeners, detergents, fuel additives, paints, and more.

Kraft black liquor, utilized as a lignin feedstock, is increasingly acknowledged as a valuable resource for the production of high-value products. Acid precipitation has proved to be one prominent method for separating this lignin, but its impact on lignin odor remains understudied. This study addresses this gap, aiming to elucidate the relationship between precipitation acidity and lignin odor profiles, offering insights for improving lignin quality and its industrial applications. To this purpose, lignin from Kraft black liquor was precipitated under different acidity levels compared one to another in terms of release of odorous compounds, as mass concentrations and olfactory perception.

To establish a comprehensive odor profile representative of lignin, the investigation focuses on the odor activity values (OAVs) of compounds contributing significantly to the overall odor mixture. Results revealed that acidity significantly influences the generation of volatile organic compounds and the olfactory profile of lignin. Lignins extracted under acidic conditions exhibit fewer aromatic characteristics, whereas those under neutral conditions display more intense and diverse odors. The presence of the guaiacol aroma, characteristic of lignin, is notably pungent and predominant in all samples.

Odor profile analysis provides insights into lignin structural changes during precipitation. Decomposition reduces molecular weight, removing salts and sulfur impurities, decreasing sulfur-derived VOCs. Changes in odor profile, like increased acetic acid odor and more methoxyphenol emission, reflect ester bond degradation and greater methoxy group exposure.

硫酸盐黑液作为木质素原料，越来越被认为是生产高价值产品的宝贵资源。酸沉淀法已被证明是分离木质素的一种重要方法，但其对木质素气味的影响仍未得到充分研究。本研究解决了这一空白，旨在阐明降水酸度与木质素气味特征之间的关系，为改善木质素质量及其工业应用提供见解。为此，从硫酸盐黑液中提取木质素，在不同酸度水平下进行沉淀，比较其释放的气味化合物，如质量浓度和嗅觉感知。为了建立以木质素为代表的综合气味谱，研究了对整体气味混合物有重要贡献的化合物的气味活性值（OAVs）。结果表明，酸度显著影响木质素挥发性有机物的生成和木质素的嗅觉特征。在酸性条件下提取的木质素表现出较少的芳香特征，而在中性条件下提取的木质素表现出更强烈和多样化的气味。木素特有的愈创木酚香气的存在，在所有样品中都具有明显的刺激性和优势。气味分析提供了洞察木质素在降水过程中的结构变化。分解降低了分子量，去除了盐和硫杂质，减少了硫衍生的挥发性有机化合物。气味特征的变化，如醋酸气味增加和甲氧基酚释放增加，反映了酯键降解和甲氧基暴露增加。

The aerobic granular sludge (AGS) biotechnology has emerged as a compact, sustainable, resilient, and highly efficient technology for wastewater treatment. Beyond wastewater treatment, AGS provides significant potential for resource recovery, aligning with circular economy principles. This review explores the recovery of six key resources from AGS systems: phosphorus, alginate-like exopolysaccharides (ALE), tryptophan, tyrosine, phenylalanine, and biogas. Phosphorus recovery pathways include enhanced biological phosphorus removal, biologically induced precipitation as hydroxylapatite (Ca₅(PO₄)₃(OH)), and struvite (MgNH₄PO₄·6H₂O) formation. ALE extraction techniques and optimization strategies are examined for their industrial applications. Biogas production from waste granules can be improved through co-digestion and pre-treatment methods such as steam explosion. Tryptophan production in the aerobic granule matrix can be enhanced through optimized operational parameters, while extraction and quantification are achieved using high-performance liquid chromatography. Tyrosine and phenylalanine, recently identified in the aerobic granule matrix, have a wide range of industrial applications including feed and food supplement, production of medicines, in agriculture for postharvest preservation, and as a raw material for other chemical products. Their biosynthesis in the aerobic granule matrix can be enhanced via process optimization and approaches such as quorum sensing. Addressing current AGS challenges such as extended start-up times when using low-strength wastewater and operational issues with industrial wastewater is critical for maximizing AGS performance. AGS exemplifies innovative biotechnology for sustainable wastewater treatment and resource recovery, leading the way to attaining a circular economy in wastewater management.

好氧颗粒污泥（AGS）生物技术已成为一种紧凑、可持续、弹性和高效的污水处理技术。除了废水处理，AGS还提供了巨大的资源回收潜力，符合循环经济原则。本文综述了从AGS系统中回收六种关键资源：磷、海藻酸样胞外多糖（ALE）、色氨酸、酪氨酸、苯丙氨酸和沼气。磷的回收途径包括加强生物除磷、生物诱导沉淀为羟基磷灰石(Ca5（PO4)3(OH)）和鸟粪石（MgNH4PO4·6H2O）的形成。研究了ALE提取技术和优化策略的工业应用。通过共消化和蒸汽爆破等预处理方法，可以提高废颗粒的沼气产量。通过优化操作参数，可提高好氧颗粒基质中色氨酸的产量，同时采用高效液相色谱法进行提取和定量。最近在好氧颗粒基质中发现的酪氨酸和苯丙氨酸具有广泛的工业应用，包括饲料和食品补充剂，药品生产，农业收获后保存以及作为其他化学产品的原料。它们在好氧颗粒基质中的生物合成可以通过工艺优化和群体感应等方法来增强。解决当前AGS面临的挑战，如使用低强度废水时延长启动时间，以及工业废水的操作问题，对于最大限度地提高AGS的性能至关重要。AGS是可持续废水处理和资源回收的创新生物技术的典范，引领着实现废水管理循环经济的道路。

This study presents a new waste-to-energy-to-zero management under the energy, economic, and environmental implications. The survey data implies a total municipal solid waste (MSW) generation of 17.85 Ton/d. The proportions of combustible waste, noncombustible waste, and organic waste are 31.63%, 35.24%, and 33.13%, respectively. Combustion heat is utilized to fuel a combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) system. A power output is generated with a two-stage organic Rankine cycle (ORC) of 55.57 kW_e, a cooling process in an absorption chiller of 91.06 kW, and a heating process in a drying room of 207.39 kW. A total energy output of 306.98 kW and an energy efficiency of 22.38% are simulated in the waste CCHP system. The solar photovoltaic (PV) rooftop system produced 2,755.62 kWh/d of power generation at a maximum efficiency of 16.28%. A waste-to-energy system has a net power output of 2,823.86 kWh/d at an overall efficiency of 18.34%. Concrete, copper, steel, and gypsum materials significantly influence all midpoint impact categories in the LCA. The main LCA is 6.01E-02 kg CO₂ eq/kWh for climate change, 5.04E-02 kg 1,4-DB eq/kWh for human toxicity, and 1.74E-02 kg Fe eq/kWh for mineral resource depletion. A levelized energy cost (LEnC) of 0.15 USD/kWh, a net present value (NPV) of 1,634,658.51 USD, a profitability index (PI) of 1.72, an internal rate of return (IRR) of 7.97%, and a payback period (PB) of 9.63 y are achieved for economic impact. A waste-to-zero method presents a waste ash concrete block of 7.50 kg, with a size of 39 cm × 19 cm × 7 cm, developed under the Thai Industrial Standard (TIS) 58–2533.
