From typical silicon-rich biomass to porous carbon-zeolite composite: A sustainable approach for efficient adsorption of CO2

Variation of soil silicon fractions and bioavailability during centennial‐scale evolution of ecosystem after glacier retreat

“…Previous studies reported that the soil environment with low pH promotes the dissolution of minerals and increases the content of soil mineral elements (Drever & Stillings, 1997). It was reported that the absorption of Si by plants can resist the stresses of pathogens and insect pests (Alhousari & Greger, 2018; Debona et al., 2017; Islam et al., 2020), drought (Thorne et al., 2020; Wang et al., 2021), and heavy metals (Elrys et al., 2018; Khan et al., 2021), and can increase the photosynthetic efficiency of leaves (Bukhari et al., 2021; Verma et al., 2020), thus increasing the vegetation biomass (Gan et al., 2021; Hussain et al., 2019). The increase of vegetation coverage will inhibit the influence of rainfall on soil erosion potential (Kim et al., 2021; Zhuang et al., 2021), thereby alleviating soil erosion in the study area.…”

Recent advances on value-added biocarbon preparation by the pyrolysis of renewable and waste biomass, their structure and properties: a move toward an ecofriendly alternative to carbon black

“…Interestingly, these silica rich biomassbased biocarbons are well explored for supercapacitor applications and CO 2 adsorption applications. [105][106][107] Recently reported rice hull-derived silicon-carbon-based supercapacitor depicted 99% regeneration efficiency, which is very signicant as a new generation sustainable energy material. 108 As most of the carbon blacks were introduced for reinforcement applications in polymers specically based on the requirements for achieving higher surface area and lower particle size, low pyrolysis temperature was chosen and hence less graphitization observed.…”

CO2 Capture from Flue Gas on a Pilot Scale Using Porous Carbon Prepared from Cotton Stalk Crop Residues through an Industrially Viable Activation Process

“…Among these, amine-based absorbents like monoethanolamine (MEA) and its derivatives have proven effective at capturing CO 2 in a specific manner. − Solid adsorbents such as zeolites and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have also shown promise . In particular, MOFs provide high surface areas and specialized interactions for CO 2 adsorption because of their customizable architectures. , Zeolites, on the other hand, while promising for CO 2 capture, face challenges like limited regenerability and sensitivity to moisture. , However, MOFs exhibit drawbacks such as potential instability in humid or acidic environments, affecting their long-term durability. Further, their complexity in synthesis and relatively low mechanical strength also limit their practical use for CO 2 capture .…”
