Abstract
Utilizing corn straw (CS) mainly composed of lignocellulose to prepare physically modified biochar (PCSB) via cold isostatic pressing (CIP) in order to increase the biochar' s Hg (II) adsorption capacity. The results of the characterization indicated that CIP pretreatment renders PCSB-400' s structure more porous and higher N content of 16.65 %, leading to more N-containing functional groups partaking in the adsorption process. PCSB-400 adsorbed Hg (II) primarily via C/N synergistic complexation and electrostatic attraction between pores, in addition to the presence of redox reactions of surface functional groups on PCSB-400. The adsorption experiment reveals that PCSB-400 has a high selectivity for the adsorption of Hg (II). The adsorption process of Hg (II) by PCSB-400 more closely resembles the Langmuir model and pseudo-first-order adsorption kinetics equation. The adsorption quantity at saturation is 282.52 mg/g at 25 °C. This paper provided an effective idea to selectively remove Hg (II) in wastewater.

Abstract
A new alternative for hydrodynamic cavitation-assisted pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse was proposed, along with a simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SSCF) process performed in interconnected columns. Influential variables in the pretreatment were evaluated using a statistical design, indicating that an ozone flow rate of 10 mg min-1 and a pH of 5.10 resulted in 86 % and 72 % glucan and xylan hydrolysis yields, respectively, in the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis process. Under these optimized conditions, iron sulfate (15 mg L-1) was added to assess Fenton pretreatment, resulting in glucan and xylan hydrolysis yields of 92 % and 71 %, respectively, in a material pretreated for 10 min. In SSCF, ethanol volumetric productivities of 0.33 g L-1 h-1 and of 0.54 g L-1 h-1 were obtained in batch and fed-batch operation modes, achieving 26 g L-1 of ethanol in 48 h in the latter mode.

Abstract
In the quest for sustainable waste management solutions, this study explores the integration of ultrasonic pretreatment as a preparatory step for the anaerobic digestion of landfill leachate. Employing response surface methodology (RSM) coupled with central composite design (CCD), we systematically optimize the process parameters, including pH, inoculum volume, and ultrasonic pretreatment duration, to maximize the yield of bio-methane potential (ml CH4/g VS). The results demonstrate the effective application of RSM-CCD for predicting and modelling methane generation, with a highly significant model (R2 = 0.899). The optimized conditions reveal a remarkable biomethane potential of 177 ml CH4/g VS. Additionally, this study contributes to the understanding of the positive effect of ultrasound pretreatment on the anaerobic digestion of landfill leachate, and the quality of the digestate obtained after anaerobic digestion was studied and different valorisations were proposed.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 340:117960.

Abstract
Lactose in cheese whey wastewater (CWW) makes it difficult to degrade under normal conditions. The effect of ultra-sonication (US), ozonation and enzymatic hydrolysis on increasing the bioavailability of organic matter in CWW and biogas production were evaluated. The pre-treatment conditions were: specific energy input varied from 2130 to 8773KJ/KgTS for a sonication time of 4.5-18.5 min, Ozone (O3) dosages ranging from 0.03 to 0.045gO3/gTS were applied for 4-16 min, pH (3.8-7.1), temperature (35°C-55°C), enzyme dosage (0.18-0.52%), was operated from 7.75 to 53 min for enzymatic hydrolysis by β-galactosidase. The results of the US reported a maximum sCOD solubilisation of 77.15% after 18.5 min of operation, while the corresponding values for ozonation and enzymatic methods were 64.8% at 16 min and 54.79%, respectively. The organic matter degradation rates evaluated in terms of protein and lactose hydrolysis were 68.78%,46.03%; 47.83%,16.15% and 54.22%,86.2%respectively, for US, ozonation and enzymatic methods. The cumulative methane yield for sonicated, ozonised and enzymatically hydrolysed samples were 412.4 ml/g VS, 361.2 ml/g VS and 432.3mlCH4/gVS, respectively. Regardless of the lower COD solubilisation rates attained, enzymatic pre-treatment showed maximum methane generation compared to US and ozonation. This could be attributable to the increased activity of β-galactosidase in hydrolysing whey lactose. The energy calculations revealed that the pre-conditioning of organic-rich CWW with enzymatic hydrolysis is more effective and efficient, yielding a net energy gain (gross output energy-input energy) of 9166.7 KJ and an energy factor (ratio of output to input energy) of 6.67. The modified Gompertz model well simulated all experimental values.

Abstract
Based on the semi-continuous anaerobic co-digestion (AcoD) reactor, the effects of biochar addition on the internal environmental changes and gas production characteristics were studied under the condition of biogas slurry recirculation. The results showed that the addition of biochar enhanced the degradation and metabolic pathways of acetate and propionate, thereby reducing the concentrations of volatile fatty acids (VFAs), total ammonia and chemical oxygen demand by 55 %, 41 % and 61 %, respectively. The buffer system formed by the combination of NH4+ and VFAs of C2-C5 was also enhanced, thereby improving the stability of the system. The addition of biochar effectively increased the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Spirochaetota and Synergistota, and enhanced three methanogenic metabolic pathways. This study provides scientific support for the application of biochar to solve the system inhibition in mixed substrate semi-continuous AcoD process and provides technical support for the stable operation of biogas project.

Abstract
In this study, a solid-liquid mixing system model was established to simulate the coexistence of floating particles (FP) and sinking particles (SP) in the early stage of anaerobic digestion, and the mixing effect and energy consumption of the system were investigated. Four typical blades were selected to compare the solid phase distribution of straw particles under different blade stirring, and the distribution of FP and SP in the coexistence system was clarified. Then the combination of full-factorial design and numerical simulation was applied to compare the effect of blade diameter and blade width on particle mixing, which was better than that of immersion depth. A comprehensive equation was further established to balance the weight between the particle mixing effect and energy consumption and improve the blade design. It provided theoretical support for the design and amplification of subsequent stirring equipment.

Abstract
The unreasonable disposal of residue after anaerobic digestion seriously affects the stability of the ecosystem, and the preparation of adsorbent is an effective way to value-added utilization of the residue. In this study, a high adsorption capacity (209.65 mg/g) biochar-based adsorbent was prepared by hydrothermal carbonization and alkali modification using rice straw biogas residue. The lignocellulosic structure was destroyed after anaerobic digestion, forming porous biochar with larger specific surface area (2372.51 m2/g) and richer pore structure. Besides, the mercury ion complexed on the adsorbent surface in monovalent and divalent forms and possessed favorable selectivity in the presence of other examples of interference. The adsorption process is consistent with pseudo second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm, indicating a predominance of chemisorption. This study provides a methodology for use of rice straw biogas residue and treatment of mercury containing wastewater, which offers a fresh direction for resource utilization of biogas residue.

Abstract
An inadequate lignocellulolytic capacity of a conventional anaerobic digester sludge (ADS) microbiota is the bottleneck for the maximal utilization of lignocellulose in anaerobic digestion. A well-constructed microbial consortium acclimatized to lignocellulose outperformed the ADS in terms of biogas productivity when fractionated biocomponents of rice straw were used to achieve a high methane bioconversion rate. A 33.3 % higher methane yield was obtained with the acclimatized consortium (AC) compared to that of ADS control. The dominant pair-wise link between Firmicutes (18.99-40.03 %), Bacteroidota (10.94-28.75 %), and archaeal Halobacteriota (3.59-20.57 %) phyla in the AC seed digesters indicated that the keystone members of these phyla were responsible for higher methane yield. A high abundance of syntrophic bacteria such as Proteiniphilum (1.22-5.19 %), Fermentimonas (0.71-5.31 %), Syntrophomonas (0.87-3.59 %), and their syntrophic partner Methanosarcina (4.26-18.80 %) maintained the digester stability and facilitated higher substrate-to-methane conversion in the AC seed digesters. The present combined strategy will help in boosting the 'biomass-to-methane" conversion.

Abstract
The scum layer of straw anaerobic digestion significantly impacts biogas production efficiency. The initial floating of straw after entering the reactor is an important reason for scum layer formation. Improving the settleability of straw particles and reducing the initial floating time of straw are crucial to suppressing the scum layer, and accelerating the water absorption rate of straw entering the reactor is the key to reducing the floating time. Therefore, in this study the corn stalks were kneaded and rolled, and the stalk particles were tested for water absorption and aerobic hydrolysis. The results showed that the water absorption rate of the stalks after conditioning was significantly accelerated, and the water absorption rate was 120% higher than that of the untreated stalks after absorbing water for 12 h. Simultaneously, aerobic hydrolysis destroys the lignocellulose structure to a certain extent, increases the porosity of the stalk particles, and further improves the settleability of the stalk particles. In the subsequent anaerobic digestion process, scum decreased significantly: the scum layer volume ratio was 13% lower than untreated stalks. The methane production efficiency of anaerobic digestion was significantly improved, and the optimal hydrolysis time was 12 h. At this time, the cumulative methane production of the milled treated stalks reached the maximum value of 319.64 mL/g VS, which was 26.59% higher than that of the untreated stalks.

Abstract
The contents of cellulose and hemicellulose (C and H) in corn stover (CS) have an important influence on its biochemical transformation and utilization. To rapidly detect the C and H contents in CS by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), the characteristic wavelength selection algorithms of backward partial least squares (BIPLS), competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), BIPLS combined with CARS, BIPLS combined with a genetic simulated annealing algorithm (GSA), and CARS combined with a GSA were used to select the wavelength variables (WVs) for C and H, and the corresponding regression correction models were established. The results showed that five wavelength selection algorithms could effectively eliminate irrelevant redundant WVs, and their modeling performance was significantly superior to that of the full spectrum. Through comparison and analysis, it was found that CARS combined with GSA had the best comprehensive performance; the predictive root mean squared errors of the C and H regression model were 0.786% and 0.893%, and the residual predictive deviations were 3.815 and 12.435, respectively. The wavelength selection algorithm could effectively improve the accuracy of the quantitative analysis of C and H contents in CS by NIRS, providing theoretical support for the research and development of related online detection equipment.

Abstract
Effective fractionation of lignocellulosic biocomponents of lignocellulosic biomass can increase its utilization in anaerobic digestion for high yield biomethane production. A hydrothermal process was optimized and integrated with a deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment to preferentially fractionate hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin in rice straw. The optimized hydrothermal process resulted in 96% hemicellulose solubilization at moderately low combined pretreatment severity (log S = 2.26), allowing increased hemicellulosic sugar recovery with minimal formation of inhibitory byproducts. Subsequent DES pretreatment resulted in highly bioaccessible cellulosic pulp, removing 81.3% of lignin that can be recovered and converted into value-added products. Anaerobic digestion of hemicellulosic fraction and cellulosic pulp using a microbial methanogenic consortium seed acclimatized to the lignocellulosic inhibitors resulted in a 33.4% higher yield of methane (467.84 mL g-1 VSinitial) than with anaerobic digester sludge seed. This integrated approach can facilitate and maximize the targeted utilization of different biocomponents through sustainable biorefining.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of anaerobic digestion duration on methane yield, net energy production, and humification of compost during solid state anaerobic digestion (SSAD) and composting hybrid process for food waste treatment. Carbon flow and balance were used to evaluate organic methanation and humification inclination of carbon in the whole SSAD and aerobic composting system. Results showed that SSAD for 15 (AD-15) and 21 days (AD-21) could increase net energy production and degraded organic matter contained in the mixtures to achieve high biological stability. The cumulative net energy production between the AD-15 and AD-21 treatments was not significantly different, which was 8.3% higher than that in SSAD for 30 days (AD-30). Furthermore, digestate (AD-15 and AD-21) composting for 3 days reached maturity and absence of phytotoxic substances. Carbon fixed into humus of the AD-21 treatment (11.6%) was not significantly different from that of AD-15 (12.0%). However, the total amount of carbon fixed into compost in AD-15 was 6.6% higher than that in AD-21. Moreover, the CO2 -C loss of the AD-15 treatment (22.9%) was slightly higher than that of AD-21 (20.6%). Thus, AD-21 treatment achieved the most effective use of carbon during SSAD and composting hybrid process for food waste treatment. These results could provide valuable insights for the effective management of food waste in practice.
