“…Another possibility is that short-term exposure of predators and prey to ashes was not enough to trigger behavioural changes. In natural environments subjected to SCA inputs, the exposure of fish to PAHs, which are constituents of sugarcane ash (Mazzoli-Rocha et al, 2008;Oo et al, 2021), is not necessarily limited to the immediate post-fire situation, as PAHs are relatively stable compounds and a chronic source of contamination (Campos et al, 2012). Therefore, even sublethal concentrations of SCA can cause chronic effects on fish fauna as a result of long-term exposure to the pollutants.…”

“…For example, chronic assays considering the exposure of fish to crude oil pollution have shown that the offspring of populations under chronic exposition had lower exploratory behaviour when compared to offspring of fish of unpolluted sites (Jacquin et al, 2017). Similarly, traces of metallic and metalloid toxic elements, such as copper (Pb), aluminium (Al), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and silicon (Si), are also constituents of sugarcane ash (Oo et al, 2021). Metals can disrupt the integrity of biochemical, genotoxic and physiological mechanisms in fish (Ré et al, 2020;Walker et al, 2001) and can result in detrimental effects on key processes in the maintenance of animal life (e.g.…”

“…This pre-harvesting action generates ashes containing different toxic compounds, including pyrogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. anthracene, benzopyrene and fluoranthene) (Assuncao et al, 2014;Cristale et al, 2012), and trace metal and metalloid elements such as potassium (K), aluminium (Al), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), silicon (Si) and sulphur (S) (Mazzoli-Rocha et al, 2008;Oo et al, 2021). Sugarcane ashes (SCA), in addition to degrading soil, can also be carried to aquatic ecosystems through water runoff after rainfall events (Martinelli & Filoso, 2008;Nunes et al, 2017;Rose & Rippey, 2002).…”

“…Therefore, as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and metals may reduce the stimulus-response rates of fish (e.g. Gonçalves et al, 2008;Ignatavičius et al, 2006;Oo et al, 2021;Pereira & Úbeda, 2010), SCA sublethal doses can reduce the ability of fish populations to track and respond to changing conditions, threatening the persistence of most aquatic populations.…”

the effects of sublethal SCA concentration on aquatic organisms. In this study, we evaluated the behaviour of a piscivorous (Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus) and an invertivorous (Moenkhausia forestii) fish species, after a short-term (24 h) exposure to a sublethal concentration of SCA (0.8 g L −1 ). We hypothesized that the outcomes of predator-prey interaction would change when the players are subjected to sublethal SCA concentration. Our findings revealed that neither the behaviours of predator and prey fish species nor the outcome of their interactions was changed by the exposure to sublethal SCA concentrations, suggesting that their behavioural traits were not particularly sensitive to SCA. However, we emphasize that (i) other predatory and anti-predator behavioural traits could be affected by SCA even at under 0.8 g L −1 concentration and (ii) higher concentrations of SCA and/or long-term exposure may trigger profound changes in the behaviour of predator and prey fish species. Our findings are worrisome because there are new public policies to expand sugarcane production in Brazil, with the possibility of continuing burning sugarcane crops across the country. This will increase the input of SCA into aquatic systems, generating more prominent and pervasive negative impacts than those evaluated in this study.

“…However, the leaves of urban trees contain large amounts of heavy metals because of their close proximity to roads [15][16][17][18] and therefore cannot be used for soil fertilization. Limitation of the use of fossil fuels makes us pay attention to tree leaves as a lignocellulosic biomass that can be applied for energy purposes [19]. According to Makkawi et al, the leaves of Phoenix dactylifera along with other wastes arising from its cultivation can be converted into energy without any harm to the environment or costs for disposal of these wastes [20].…”

Analysis of the Pyrolytic Behaviour of Birch, Maple, and Rowan Leaves

A research study was conducted on the thermal behaviour of leaves of urban greenery (birch, maple, and rowan) and the products of their pyrolysis and extraction as assisted by microwaves. The obtained products of pyrolysis and extraction were investigated with the use of FT-IR and UV spectroscopies and XRD techniques. A contractive analysis of samples of chars, condensates, after-extraction residue, and extracts showed that the changes in structural-chemical parameters of leaves of different types of trees during pyrolysis and extraction take place in distinct ways. About 22% of material was removed from birch leaves during extraction, and more than 17% of material was extracted from maple and rowan leaves. It was determined that, during pyrolysis of after-extraction residue of leaves, many fewer PAH compounds with carbonyl groups along with alcohols and phenols are emitted than during pyrolysis of non-extracted leaves. Taking into account that pyrolysis is the first stage of combustion, a decrease in the amount of dangerous compounds in the volatile products of pyrolysis leads to a lower contribution of such compounds in combustion products. This indicates that leaves of urban greenery can be subjected to combustion after extraction, and the obtained extracts can be used as a source of phytochemicals and chemical reagents.
