“…Parthenium hysterophorus L., often known as parthenium weed, is a noxious weed that has now invaded 46 countries [22]. It may flourish in many different types of climatic regions and tolerate drought and salt stress [23,24]. The swift emergence and dispersal of invasive parthenium pose a threat to human health and lower agricultural production [25].…”

Sustainable phosphorus (P) management is essential to preventing mineral fertilizer losses, reducing water pollution, and addressing eutrophication issues. Phosphorus sorption and mobility are strongly influenced by the properties of biochar, which are determined by pyrolysis temperature and type of feedstock. This understanding is crucial for optimizing biochar application for soil nutrient management. Therefore, a batch sorption-desorption experiment was conducted to examine P sorption-desorption in plant-based (parthenium, corn cobs) and manure-based (farmyard manure, poultry manure) biochars prepared at both 400 °C and 600 °C. Manure-based biochars demonstrated higher P sorption at 400 °C, with less sorption at 600 °C, while plant-based counterparts exhibited lower sorption capacities. Phosphorus desorption, on the other hand, increased at 600 °C, particularly in manure-based biochars. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectra (FTIR) analysis suggested that a lower pyrolysis temperature (400 °C) enhances P sorption due to higher specific surface area and different functional groups. Additionally, the manure-based biochars, which were enriched with calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg), contributed to increased P sorption. In summary, P sorption is enhanced by a lower carbonization (400 °C) temperature. Although manure-based biochars excel in retaining P, their effectiveness is limited to shorter durations. In contrast, plant-based biochars showcase a prolonged capacity for P retention.

“…To address these concerns, researchers have developed advanced biofuels, which comprise biofuels of the second, third, and fourth generations. These more recent biofuels could be able to assist in alleviating some of the problems that are associated with the older ones (L. R. Kumar and Aggarwal, 2024). Alternately, feedstocks that are obtained from crops that are not edible are said to be of the second generation.…”

As a sustainable replacement for fossil fuels, biodiesel is a game-changer in the energy sector. There is no strategy to minimize biodiesel's significance as a sustainable, clean fuel source in light of the increasing climate change and environmental sustainability concerns. Nevertheless, conventional biodiesel production methods often run into problems like inadequate conversion efficiency and inappropriate fuel properties, which impede their broad adoption. The revolutionary potential of nanotechnology to circumvent these limitations and revolutionize biodiesel consumption and production is explored in this review paper. There are new possibilities for improving biodiesel output and engine efficiency, thanks to nanotechnology, which can alter matter at the atomic and molecular levels. Using nano-catalysts, nano-emulsification processes, and nano-encapsulation procedures, researchers have made significant advances in improving biodiesel qualities such as stability, combustion efficiency, and viscosity. Through a comprehensive analysis of current literature and research data, this article elucidates the crucial role of nanotechnology in advancing biodiesel technology. By shedding light on the most current advancements, challenges, and potential future outcomes in nano-based biodiesel manufacturing and consumption, this review hopes to add to the growing corpus of knowledge in the field and inspire additional innovation. In conclusion, there is great hope for a sustainable energy future, increased economic growth, and reduced environmental impacts through the application of nanotechnology.
