Urban garbage has become an important field affecting the healthy development of urban ecology, and urban ecological environment protection has naturally become a crucial part in the process of modern urban development. Deepening the relevant concepts of ecological and environmental protection also makes modern cities pay attention to the recycling and utilization of waste resources. This work is combined with the development status of urban waste recycling industry. Taking urban construction waste and domestic waste as examples, this paper focuses on the operation model and development path of urban waste recycling industry. For example, in the aspect of domestic waste treatment, the resource industrialization path of incineration fly ash is proposed, focusing on the water washing and dechlorination of incineration fly ash, the production of unburned ceramsite from water washed fly ash, and the separation and recovery of inorganic salts in fly ash water washing solution. The results show that the recoveries of NaCl, KCl, and CaCl2 are 96.21%, 95.85%, and 94.72%. Through the analysis of social, environmental, and economic benefits, the government, scientific research institutions, and enterprises are encouraged to make joint efforts to develop the construction waste recycling industry, so as to fundamentally solve the current situation of “mountains of garbage and cities surrounded by garbage” in China.

“…Indeed, the biogeography and macroecology of several non‐native, often microscopic, fungal pathogens are well‐studied, driven by their socio‐economic or environmental damages, on the one hand, for example on agricultural crops (e.g. Bebber, Holmes, & Gurr, 2014; Bufford et al, 2016; Fones et al, 2017; Scott et al, 2019)—but see for example Paap et al (2022), for a discussion of knowledge limitations even for these taxa. On the other hand, knowledge on patterns of macrofungal invasions is geographically restricted (e.g.…”

Aim: To uncover the biogeography of non-native macrofungal diversity worldwide, by analysing patterns and drivers of (1) regional variation in species richness, (2) compositional similarity between regional species assemblages and (3) the spatiotemporal trends of first records. Location: Global.Methods: We used a database providing 1608 distribution records of 554 non-native macrofungal species in 167 national and sub-national regions worldwide. Regression models accounting for regional levels of recording capacity were used to relate spatial variation of non-native macrofungal richness and of regional compositional similarities to variables representing geographical, socio-economic and biophysical characteristics of regions. Temporal trends of first records were assessed at the global and continental scales and for distinct ecofunctional groups.Results: Regions reporting higher diversity of non-native species occur mainly in Europe, the Americas and Oceania. Regression models showed that regions with greater gross domestic product per capita, areal extent and in the Southern Hemisphere have higher non-native species richness, while regions with similar mean temperatures and latitudinal position share higher compositional similarities.Numbers of first records of non-native macrofungi have grown quasi-exponentially between 1753 and 2018, reflecting not only improved recording capacities but also likely an increasing number of introductions.

Background Necrotizing pathogens pose an immense economic and ecological threat to trees and forests, but the molecular analysis of these pathogens is still in its infancy because of lacking model systems. To close this gap, we developed a reliable bioassay for the widespread necrotic pathogen Botrytis cinerea on poplars (Populus sp.), which are established model organisms to study tree molecular biology. Results Botrytis cinerea was isolated from Populus x canescens leaves. We developed an infection system using fungal agar plugs, which are easy to handle. The method does not require costly machinery and results in very high infection success and significant fungal proliferation within four days. We successfully tested the fungal plug infection on 18 poplar species from five different sections. Emerging necroses were phenotypically and anatomically examined in Populus x canescens leaves. We adapted methods for image analyses of necrotic areas. We calibrated B. cinerea DNA against Ct-values obtained by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and measured the amounts of fungal DNA in infected leaves. Increases in necrotic area and fungal DNA were strictly correlated within the first four days after inoculation. Methyl jasmonate pretreatment of poplar leaves decreased the spreading of the infection. Conclusions We provide a simple and rapid protocol to study the effects of a necrotizing pathogen on poplar leaves. The bioassay and fungal DNA quantification for Botrytis cinerea set the stage for in-depth molecular studies of immunity and resistance to a generalist necrotic pathogen in trees.
