Summary: MnOx-based oxides are efficient catalysts for elemental mercury oxidation in flue gas, and combining with CeO2 or CeO2-ZrO2 enhances their catalytic activity. The new MnOx-CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution catalyst showed better Hg-0 oxidation performance compared to the MnOx/CeO2-ZrO2 supported catalyst. Mn4+ and surface active oxygen were identified as the active species in Hg-0 oxidation reactions, and SO2 significantly inhibited the activity of MnOx/CeO2-ZrO2 but had less impact on MnOx-CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution.

Summary: This paper reviews methods for recovering different forms of phosphorus from solid products obtained from different sludge thermal treatment methods, as well as the bioavailability of the recovered phosphorus products. Incineration of sewage sludge is currently the most established and effective method for recovering phosphorus, while one wet chemical method has been commercialized and is expected to be further developed for industrial applications in the future. Pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonization still have research gaps, but both have the potential to recover phosphorus and should be further explored based on their principles and laboratory performance.

Summary: This study conducted co-hydrothermal carbonization of rape straw and microalgae to obtain clean hydrochar. The effect of different feedwater pH values on co-HTC and the mechanism of enhanced N, S, and O removal were revealed. Acidic and alkaline conditions in the feedwater exacerbated the carbonization process. The hydrochar formed under acidic conditions had a higher heating value and deamination and deoxidation were the main methods for protein degradation and N, S, and O removal. The results provide insights into the production of hydrochar with improved properties.

Summary: The use of machine learning to predict the performance of specific adsorbents in phosphate adsorption shows great promise in saving time and revealing underlying mechanisms. However, the small size of the dataset and insufficient detailed information limits the model training process and the accuracy of results. To address this, the study employs a fuzzing strategy that replaces detailed numeric information with descriptive text messages on the physiochemical properties of adsorbents. This strategy allows the recovery of discarded samples with limited information, leading to accurate prediction of adsorption amount, capacity, and kinetics. The study also finds that phosphate uptake by adsorbents is generally through physisorption, with some involvement of chemisorption. The framework established in this study provides a practical approach for quickly predicting phosphate adsorption performance in urgent scenarios, using easily accessible information.
