RSC Adv 2024; 14:6443-6461. [PMID: 38380236 PMCID: PMC10878411 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra06927c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
In the present work, four CaCO3-rich solid residues from the pulp and paper industry (lime mud, green liquor sludge, electrostatic precipitator dust, and lime dregs) were assessed for their potential as co-sequestrating agents in carbon capture. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) was added to promote both CO2 hydration and residue mineral dissolution, offering an enhancement in CO2-capture yield under atmospheric (up to 4-fold) and industrial-gas mimic conditions (up to 2.2-fold). Geological CO2 storage using olivine as a reference material was employed in two stages: one involving mineral dissolution, with leaching of Mg2+ and SiO2 from olivine; and the second involving mineral carbonation, converting Mg2+ and bicarbonate to MgCO3 as a permanent storage form of CO2. The results showed an enhanced carbonation yield up to 6.9%, when CA was added in the prior CO2-capture step. The proposed route underlines the importance of the valorization of industrial residues toward achieving neutral, or even negative emissions in the case of bioenergy-based plants, without the need for energy-intensive compression and long-distance transport of the captured CO2. This is a proof of concept for an integrated strategy in which a biocatalyst is applied as a CO2-capture promoter while CO2 storage can be done near industrial sites with adequate geological characteristics.

Revealing the relative importance among plant species, slope positions, and soil types on rhizosphere microbial communities in northern tropical karst and non-karst seasonal rainforests of China. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1103550.

Abstract
Rhizosphere microbes have an extremely close relationship with plants and the study on the relationship between rhizosphere microorganisms and their influencing factors is conducive to the protection of vegetation and the maintenance of biodiversity. Here we investigated how plant species, slope positions and soil types affect the rhizosphere microbial community. Slope positions and soil types were collected from northern tropical karst and non-karst seasonal rainforests. The results indicated that soil types played a predominant role in the development of rhizosphere microbial communities (28.3% of separate contribution rate), more than plant species identity (10.9% of separate contribution rate) and slope position (3.5% of separate contribution rate). Notably, environmental factors closely related to soil properties were the major influence factors that controlling the rhizosphere bacterial community structure in the northern tropical seasonal rainforest, especially pH. Additionally, plant species also influenced the rhizosphere bacterial community. In low nitrogen content soil environments, rhizosphere biomarkers of dominant plant species were often nitrogen-fixing strains. It suggested that plants might have a selective adaptation mechanism to rhizosphere microorganisms to obtain the advantages of nutrient supply. Overall, soil types exerted the biggest influence on rhizosphere microbial community structure, followed by plant species and finally slope positions.

[PMID: 35364080 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.134419] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
CO2 Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) is a fundamental strategy to mitigate climate change, and carbon sequestration, through absorption, can be one of the solutions to achieving this goal. In nature, carbonic anhydrase (CA) catalyzes the CO2 hydration to bicarbonates. Targeting the development of novel biotechnological routes which can compete with traditional CO2 absorption methods, CA utilization has presented a potential to expand as a promising catalyst for CCUS applications. Driven by this feature, the search for novel CAs as biocatalysts and the utilization of enzyme improvement techniques, such as protein engineering and immobilization methods, has resulted in suitable variants able to catalyze CO2 absorption at relevant industrial conditions. Limitations related to enzyme recovery and recyclability are still a concern in the field, affecting cost efficiency. Under different absorption approaches, CA enhances both kinetics and CO2 absorption yields, besides reduced energy consumption. However, efforts directed to process optimization and demonstrative plants are still limited. A recent topic with great potential for development is the CA utilization in accelerated weathering, where industrial residues could be re-purposed towards becoming carbon sequestrating agents. Furthermore, research of new solvents has identified potential candidates for integration with CA in CO2 capture, and through techno-economic assessments, CA can be a path to increase the competitiveness of alternative CO2 absorption systems, offering lower environmental costs. This review provides a favorable scenario combining the enzyme and CO2 capture, with possibilities in reaching an industrial-like stage in the future.

Abstract
The magnitudes, spatial distributions and contributions to global carbon budget of the global carbonate carbon sink (CCS) still remain uncertain, allowing the problem of national measurement of CCS remain unresolved which will directly influence the fairness of global carbon markets and emission trading. Here, based on high spatiotemporal resolution ecological, meteorological raster data and chemical field monitoring data, combining highly reliable machine learning algorithm with the thermodynamic dissolution equilibrium model, we estimated the new CCS of 0.89 ± 0.23 petagrams of carbon per year (Pg C yr-1), amounting to 74.50% of global net forest sink and accounting for 28.75% of terrestrial sinks or 46.81% of the missing sink. Our measurement for 142 nations of CCS showed that Russia, Canada, China and the USA contribute over half of the global CCS. We also presented the first global fluxes maps of the CCS with spatial resolution of 0.05°, exhibiting two peaks in equatorial regions (10°S to 10°N) and low latitudes (10°N to 35°N) in Northern Hemisphere. By contrast, there are no peaks in Southern Hemisphere. The greatest average carbon sink flux (CCSF), i.e., 2.12 tC ha-1 yr-1, for 2000 to 2014 was contributed by tropical rainforest climate near the equator, and the smallest average CCSF was presented in tropical arid zones, showing a magnitude of 0.26 tC ha-1 yr-1. This research estimated the magnitudes, spatial distributions, variations and contributions to the global carbon budget of the CCS in a higher spatiotemporal representativeness and expandability way, which, via multiple mechanisms, introduced an important sink in the terrestrial carbon sink system and the global missing sink and that can help us further reveal and support our understanding of global rock weathering carbon sequestration, terrestrial carbon sink system and global carbon cycle dynamics which make our understanding of global change more comprehensive.

Abstract
An assembly was fabricated and was revealed to be a multiple-stimulus-responsive biomimetic hybrid polymer architecture. It was constructed by the hydrophobic interactions between a conjugated polyfluorene that contained 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole units (PFBT) and a tri(ethylene glycol)-functionalized polyisocyanopeptide (3OEG-PIC). The introduction of PFBT to the polyisocyanopeptide (PIC) network allowed for the incorporation of responsiveness to multiple stimuli including temperature, CO2 , carbonic anhydrase, and nonlinear mechanics, which mimics natural processes and interactions. Furthermore, the light-harvesting and signal amplification characteristics of PFBT endowed the supramolecular assembly with the essential function of fluorescence monitoring for biological processes.
