To extract As bound to amorphous and crystalline iron oxides, this study proposed simultaneous application of oxalic acid and dithionite, which was observed to induce synergistic effect and accomplish effective extraction of As bound to both iron oxides. However, the formation of arsenic sulfide decreased overall removal of As because the insoluble precipitate form of As remained as a residual fraction of As in soil. Therefore, stepwise addition of dithionite in the simultaneous application was applied to minimize the formation of secondary minerals and maximize the As extraction. As a result, 74% of As bound to amorphous iron oxides and 65% of As bound to crystalline iron oxides were removed. More importantly, the stepwise application of oxalic acid and dithionite was effective to reduce the bioaccessible concentration of As in the treated soil. Therefore, the proposed application could reduce the potential risk of contaminated soil to human health by extraction-based remedial action.

Multiple-functionalized biochar affects rice yield and quality via regulating arsenic and lead redistribution and bacterial community structure in soils under different hydrological conditions

Xing Yang, Zhinan Dai, Chengjun Ge, Huamei Yu, Nanthi Bolan, Daniel C. W. Tsang, Hocheol Song, Deyi Hou, Sabry M. Shaheen, Hailong Wang, Joerg Rinklebe

Summary: In this study, the effects of functionalized biochars (PBC and FePBC) and different irrigation regimes (CF and IF) on rice yield and the accumulation of As and Pb in rice grain were investigated. The results showed that FePBC increased rice yield under both CF and IF conditions. The concentration of As in grain was higher under CF conditions, whereas the concentration of Pb was higher under IF conditions. Therefore, the application of multiple-functionalized biochar can effectively increase rice yield and reduce As accumulation, particularly under IF conditions, but it is not applicable for Pb remediation in paddy soils.

Revealing Intrinsic Relations Between Cu Scales and Radical/Nonradical Oxidations to Regulate Nucleophilic/Electrophilic Catalysis

Zhonghao Wan, Yang Cao, Zibo Xu, Xiaoguang Duan, Shuguang Xu, Deyi Hou, Shaobin Wang, Daniel C. W. Tsang

Summary: Copper/carbon catalysts exhibit different pathways in peroxide activation depending on the electron-transfer regime, but the trigger for this transition is unclear. This study reveals that Cu species in sub-nanometre particles (SNPs) have an electrophilic nature, while Cu nanoclusters have a nucleophilic nature. The switch between nucleophile/electrophile nature leads to distinct catalytic mechanisms in activating peroxymonosulfate. The study demonstrates the regulable electroactive nature of carbon-supported Cu sites through scaling modulation and defect engineering.

Summary: Machine learning was used to predict the important factors affecting phytoextraction efficiency of hyperaccumulators. Heavy metal properties, especially the metal ion radius, were found to be the most important factors, while the plant family had the most influence on the bioconcentration factor, metal extraction ratio, and remediation time. The Crassulaceae family showed the highest potential as hyperaccumulators, related to gene expression and substance secretion. The insights from the machine learning model interpretation could guide efficient phytoremediation.

Efficient microwave-assisted mineralization of oxytetracycline driven by persulfate and hypochlorite over Cu-biochar catalyst

Qiaozhi Zhang, Yuqing Sun, Weijian Xu, Yang Cao, Chunfei Wu, Chi-Hwa Wang, Daniel C. W. Tsang

Summary: MW-assisted catalytic degradation of organic pollutants using Cu-loaded biochar catalysts showed high efficiency in the mineralization of refractory and high-concentration oxytetracycline. Reactive oxidizing species, which were barely detectable in a conventional heating system, played a crucial role in achieving the high efficiency in MW-assisted oxidation systems. The interactions between CuBC and MW were revealed by correlating the physiochemical characteristics to the MW absorption ability. These proposed catalytic systems have significant implications for the development of a high-throughput and low-carbon wastewater treatment technology.

Bonding mechanisms and micro-mechanical properties of the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between biochar and paste in carbon-sink cement-based composites

Xiaohong Zhu, Yuying Zhang, Liang Chen, Lei Wang, Bin Ma, Jiaqi Li, Chi Sun Poon, Daniel C. W. Tsang

Summary: This study investigated the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) in biochar-augmented carbon-negative cementitious materials using various analysis techniques. The results revealed significant changes in hydration degree and porosity at the edge of biochar. The integration of biochar and cement was mainly achieved through the formation of Ca-rich hydration products. In terms of mechanical behavior, biochar exhibited viscous-elastic deformation while hardened cement displayed plastic-elastic properties. The distinct differences in deformation contributed to the higher compressive strength of biochar-cement composites.

Selective Extraction of Critical Metals from Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries

Mengmeng Wang, Kang Liu, Zibo Xu, Shanta Dutta, Marjorie Valix, Daniel S. Alessi, Longbin Huang, Julie B. Zimmerman, Daniel C. W. Tsang

Summary: Selective and highly efficient extraction technologies are crucial for the recovery of critical metals from spent lithium-ion battery (LIB) cathode materials. The tailored deep eutectic solvent (DES) choline chloride-formic acid (ChCl-FA) demonstrated high selectivity and efficiency in extracting critical metals from mixed cathode materials under mild conditions. Mechanochemical reactions further enhanced the leaching performance of critical metals and inhibited the leaching of nontarget elements, thus promoting selectivity and efficiency.

Efficient Hydrogenation of Glucose to Polyols over Hydrotalcite-Derived PtNi Alloy Catalyst under Mild Conditions

Ge Gao, Shanshan Feng, Zhicheng Jiang, Changwei Hu, Qiaozhi Zhang, Daniel C. W. Tsang

Summary: A PtNi/HT catalyst was prepared and used for glucose hydrogenation, achieving a high conversion rate of 95.7% and selectivity of 90.1% to polyols at 393 K in water. The catalyst demonstrated stability and recyclability for glucose conversion. Lower reaction temperatures favored hexitol production, while higher temperatures facilitated the generation of polyols with less carbon. The Pt delta--Ni delta+ pair on PtNi/HT played a crucial role in H2 activation and adsorption during glucose hydrogenation. The basic support of PtNi/HT efficiently catalyzed glucose isomerization and retro-aldol reaction in the aqueous phase.

Interactions between white and black carbon in water: A case study of concurrent aging of microplastics and biochar

Shi Yao, Ni Ni, Xiaona Li, Na Wang, Yongrong Bian, Xin Jiang, Yang Song, Nanthi S. Bolan, Qiaozhi Zhang, Daniel C. W. Tsang

Summary: In this study, the interaction between microplastics and biochar during environmental aging was investigated. It was found that early-stage interactions of microplastics and biochar could promote the release of dissolved organic matter (DOM) from biochar, while their long-term interactions resulted in the sorption of hydrophobic and small molecules of microbial byproduct-like DOM. Early-stage interactions also promoted the sorption of organic contaminants, but this promotion was no longer observed after aging due to the influence of heterogeneous aggregation.

Chen Sun, Weizhe Ge, Yuying Zhang, Lei Wang, Yan Xia, Xiaoqing Lin, Qunxing Huang, Shengyong Lu, Daniel C. W. Tsang, Jianhua Yan

Summary: In this study, CaO or MgO was used to activate GGBS for stabilization/solidification of hazardous MSWI FA. The formation of reaction products was significantly inhibited by PTEs in CaO-GGBS system, while PTEs had insignificant inhibition in MgO-GGBS system, leading to lower leachabilities of PTEs and higher mechanical strengths. MSWI FA could be effectively recycled by MgO-GGBS binder into blocks with desirable properties.

Summary: In this study, a sequential and scalable hydro-oxygen repair (HOR) route was proposed for closed-loop recycling of spent LiFePO4 batteries. The route involves steps such as cathode electrode separation, oxidative extraction of lithium, and restoration of lithium iron phosphate crystals. The HOR route demonstrated efficient separation and extraction of materials, and the regenerated crystals showed comparable electrochemical capacity to commercial cathode materials. Life cycle assessment showed significant reduction in carbon emissions and smog release, contributing to a circular economy and decarbonization.
