Summary: This study discusses the management of post-fermentation broth in biohydrogen generation using lignocellulose and starch-based raw materials and proposes a sequential process to improve the efficiency of hydrogen generation and by-products management. By converting simple sugars remaining in the broth into organic acids and using them as substrates for photo fermentation, along with promoting the synthesis of Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) precursors, the study achieved successful results in hydrogen production and efficient post-fermentation broth management.

Summary: A combined technique of microalgae photosynthesis and dark fermentation was proposed to efficiently reclaim nutrients and COD from landfill leachate, and convert microalgae biomass into biohydrogen and VFAs. The interaction between Scenedesmus obliquus and Chlorella vulgaris was enhanced by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), leading to better absorption of nutrients and higher energy yield. This work fills the knowledge gaps of dual microalgal interactions and provides insights for the disposal of landfill leachate and bioenergy production.

Summary: This study evaluates biohydrogen yield efficiency using 26 new DEA models with 55 experiments categorized into DF, PF, and DF-PF technologies, finding that DF-PF has the highest efficiency. Statistical tests show that all biohydrogen inputs and outputs significantly influence yield efficiency. India and Japan are the top two economies benefitting from improved biohydrogen yield efficiency, which can contribute to macroeconomic growth and renewable hydrogen development.

Summary: This study investigated the properties of hydrolysates obtained from acid and alkali hydrolysis for bio-hydrogen production. Results showed that 1.0% H2SO4 hydrolysate had the highest hydrogen production efficiency, while hydrogen production and metabolite distribution depended on the sugars and by-product composition in the hydrolysate.

Summary: Different pretreatment methods, including lyophilization, hydrothermal pretreatment, and ultrasound combined with dilute alkali post-cooking, were investigated to enhance the efficiency of enzymatic saccharification and biohydrogen production of wheat straw. All methods effectively removed lignin and hemicellulose while retaining cellulose, improving biomass accessibility. Ultrasound combined with dilute alkali cooking produced a reducing sugar concentration of 13.18 g/L and a sequential fermentative hydrogen yield of 133.6 mL/g total solids.

Summary: A nickel titanate (NTO) photocatalyst has been developed for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with a wide range of excitation wavelengths from visible to infrared. By loading CoOx as the co-catalyst, the OER achieved apparent quantum yields of approximately 2.2%, 1.0%, and 0.8% at 470, 760, and 850 nm wavelengths, respectively. This demonstrates the high efficiency of the NTO photocatalyst, even under near-infrared (NIR) light, and its potential for efficient solar-driven oxidation reactions.

Summary: This study demonstrates the dark fermentative hydrogen gas production from waste peach pulp using intermittent feeding. The effects of hydraulic residence time (HRT) and substrate loading rate (SLR) on hydrogen production were investigated, showing that shorter HRTs and higher SLRs are more favorable for hydrogen formation. The maximum hydrogen formation rate of 931.8 mLH2/L.d was achieved with an HRT of 1 day and an SLR of 90 gTOC/L.d.

Summary: Batch hydrogen gas production by co-fermentation of Lemna minor with glucose and Diospyros kaki peels was investigated to determine the optimal concentration blends for the highest hydrogen yield and rate. Blending 40 g/L Lemna minor with 21 g/L glucose resulted in the most convenient hydrogen yield and rate, while blending 40 g/L Lemna minor with 60 g/L Diospyros kaki peels led to maximum hydrogen production. Blending Lemna minor with Diospyros kaki peels proved to be more efficient than blending with glucose.

Summary: UV filters are widely used in personal care and industrial products, but their toxicological and environmental effects are of increasing concern. Due to excessive use, their residue levels in the environment are increasing, and they can accumulate in biological wastewater treatment sludge. Therefore, the development of a reliable and sensitive method for analyzing trace level residues of UV filters in waste sludge samples is important. This study presents a rapid and sensitive analysis method using the QuEChERS methodology coupled with in-port derivatization, which allows for the detection of eight UV filters in sludge samples.
