“…Otherwise, organic carbon contents decreased as a result of converting BC to nano-BC from 4.84% to 2.05, respectively. Also, results indicated the increase of BET-surface area and total pore volume as results of turning the BC to nano scale (Kalia and Kaur, 2019;El-Ramady et al, 2021).).…”

The study investigates the release of phosphorus (P) from nano-bone char (Nano-BC), which could be a potential P-soil fertilizer. The study evaluated the performance of P releasing from Nano-BC compared to the originated bone char (BC) which was prepared under pyrolysis temperature 650 o C.BC and Nano-BC were characterized by elemental composition, Xray diffraction (XRD), surface areas, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), showing the physicochemical properties differences.The P-fast release was determined after 24 hours under different conditions (pH, ionic strength, and coexisting ofanion species), while the P-slow release was after 21 days. The performance of P-fast release from Nano-BC was higher than from BC, acidic conditions were more suitable with the privilege for Nano-BC. Higher ionic strength gave the lowest P-releasing amounts for both materials (0.47 to 0.51 mg.g -1 for BC and 0.61 to 0.62 mg.g -1 for Nano-BC). The coexisting SO 4 = anion encouraged the rapid release of P from Nano-BC (8.65 mg.g -1 ) than those for Cland NO 3 anions. For the slow release experiments, Nano-BC gave higher P-release than BC withpH ranging from 4.25 to 9.39 for Nano-BC and 4.75 to 9.75 for BC. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model was correlated quite to the release of ortho-P (R 2 = 0.894, and 0.901for BC, Nano-BC, respectively) and this indicated the chemical nature of the release process of ortho-P. The results could suggest the privilege of using Nano-BC as a soil P fertilizer.

“…This enforced several Labs all over the word for searching of new and alternative approaches to overcome these previous challenges under climate change such as Nano-Food Lab (Debrecen University), which has a promising research plan working on the WEF nexus. This program involved study on nano-nutrients for increasing carbon sequestration (El-Ramady et al 2021), nano-management of agro-wastes (El-Ramady et al 2020;2022a), and nano-restoration of soil fertility (El-Ramady et al 2022b, c). These studies also focused on the mushrooms as healthy food (El-Ramady et al 2022d;Töros et al 2023), and for green synthesis of nanoparticles (Elsakhawy et al 2022).…”

ATURAL resources are considered the main sources of our life, which include water, energy and food. On the other hand, exponential global human population has place increased stress on such resources and therefore all nations ae enforced to double the productivity of fresh water, clean energy, and healthy food by more than 50-70% to meet their actual needs. These increases are not so easy to be achieved, particularly under climate change. Several approaches are proposed to mitigate the climate change under the Water-Energy-Food (WEF) nexus especially via applying nanomaterials (NMs). This review article describes the evaluation and implementation of applying NMs under climate change in search of suitable proposals to remedy these problems by analyzing the available literature of WEF nexus. The evidences that support the relationship between NMs with WEF nexus and climate change seem weak and/or inconclusive. What is not yet understood is the relative importance of the various factors that might support the global efforts to mitigate climate change and it environmental issues. Many of the available literatures on WEF nexus deal with the question of what are the direct and indirect impacts of climate change on WEF resources, but what remains still unclear is whether applied NMs is a suitable solution or not? The single most striking observation to emerge from the data comparison was several previous studies confirmed the importance of NMs for the environmental problems under certain doses. So far, more studies are needed to explore the relationship between WEF nexus and climate change after applying NMs. In view of all that has been mentioned so far, one may suppose that applied NMs are crucial for conserving WEF resources, but the nanotoxicity is a serious threat should be considered in the further studies.

“…Furthermore, studying the interactions between M. lupulina L. and contaminated soils at the molecular and microbial level can provide insights into enhancing metal uptake pathways and root exudates, improving remediation efficacy. The feasibility and effectiveness of additive-mediated phytoextraction under real-world conditions should also be validated by utilization different other types of additives like nanoparticles and biochar in laboratory experiments to field-scale applications (El-Ramady et al, 2020;Elramady et al, 2021;Singh et al, 2024aSingh et al, , 2024b. Finally, integrating phytoextraction with complementary techniques such as phytostabilization and bioremediation may offer sustainable land rehabilitation efforts synergistic benefits.…”

HYTOREMEDIATION is an acceptable, economical, and eco-friendly way to remediate metalcontaminated soils, especially in areas near industrial zones. Copper (Cu) industries generate effluent that contains various Cu pollutants. Discharging these pollutants into the environment can adversely impact soil and biota through the food chain. In this study, researchers used Medicago lupulina for phytoremediation in soil samples collected from the area surrounding the zangezur copper and molybdenum combine (ZCMC) plant in southeast Armenia. The experiment was conducted ex-situ in pots, and the concentration of Cu heavy metals was analyzed before and after applying phytoremediation using different additives, including ammonium nitrate, citric acid, malic acid, and EDTA. The results showed that these additives increased the phytoextraction process of Cu from the soil while also improving the biomass, root growth, and chlorophyll content of M. lupulina. With bioconcentration factor of root (BCF root )>1 and translocation factor (TF)>1 values, Medicago lupulina can be considered a good hyperaccumulator plant with a better capacity for phytoextraction of Cu metal.
