Conversion of digestate into biochar-based catalysts is an effective strategy for disposal and resource utilization. The active sites on biochar correlated with reactive species formation in peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system directly. Clarifying the structure-performance relationship of digestate derived biochar in PMS system was essential for decomposition of contaminants. Herein, dairy manure digestate derived biochar (DMDB) was prepared for PMS activation and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation. The higher pyrolysis temperature could promote effective sites generation. Especially, the DMDB-800 catalyst exhibited excellent performance for PMS activation, achieving 90.2% degradation of SMX within 60 min. Based on the correlation analysis between log ( k ) values and active sites, defects, graphite N and C O were identified as dominant sites for PMS activation. The 1 O 2 oxidation and surface electron transfer were critical routes for SMX degradation. Besides, the degradation pathways of SMX were proposed according to DFT calculations and intermediates determination. The cleavage of the sulfonamide bond, hydroxylation of the benzene ring and oxidation of the amino group mainly occurred during SMX degradation. Overall, this study provides deep insights into the enhanced mechanism of tunable active sites on DMDBs for PMS activation, boosting the application of digestate biochar for water treatment in advanced oxidation systems.

Intelligent hydrogels with multifunctions including biocompatibility, good mechanical property, photothermal property, sustained drug delivery ability, and antibacterial property are urgently needed in the biomaterial fields. Herein, mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) nanoparticles were wrapped by polyethyleneimine-modified cellulose nanocrystals (PCNC) and then physically crosslinked in cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) hydrogel, obtaining a novel MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel with a double packing structure for controlled drug release. Tetracycline hydrochloride (TH) was selected as the drug model and it was loaded on MPDA nanoparticles. PCNC was warped outside surface of MPDA nanoparticle, which was used to prolong drug release time and reinforce the mechanical strength of MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel. Results presented that the mechanical strength of MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel was 3.5 times stronger than that of pure CNFs hydrogel. Burst release was reduced and drug delivery time of MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel was 3 times and 1.25 times longer than that of CNFs hydrogel and polydopamine/CNFs composite hydrogel, respectively. The drug delivery behavior of the MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel could be controlled by near infrared (NIR) light irradiation and acidic pH condition. Korsmeyer-Peppas model could be used to describe the drug delivery kinetics of the MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel. Fick’s diffusion was the main drug delivery mechanism. Moreover, MPDA@PCNC/CNFs composite hydrogel was found to have good biocompatibility. The as-fabricated composite hydrogel with a double encapsulation structure and unique pH and NIR responsiveness can be applied as a promising drug release carrier, and it may also has potential applications in the fields of physical and chemical therapies.

Fine particulate matter (PM) air pollution has increasingly become a global problem; thus, high-performance air filtration materials are in great demand. Herein, we first prepared a biodegradable hierarchically structured nanocellulose-implanted air filter with a high filtration capacity using a freeze-drying technique. In this hierarchically structured air filter, porous structures of corrugated paper and cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were used as a frame and functional fillers, respectively. The self-assembled structure of the CNF fillers could be controlled by changing the freezing temperature, CNF sizes, concentrations, and base weights. Only the CNFs with a smaller size and concentration of 0.05 wt % were able to self-assemble to well-dispersed fibril networks. With constant optimization of conditions, when the base weight went up to only 0.25 g/m2, the coverage of the corrugated paper fibers with CNF networks became perfect, and a high efficiency of 94.6% for PM0.3 removal was achieved, while maintaining a relatively low pressure drop of 174.2 Pa. All of the raw materials we used are biodegradable, nonpetroleum-based materials, contributing to sustainable development. We believe that such excellent biodegradable high-performance cellulose-based air filtration materials will provide a new direction for the application of nanocellulose in air filtration.

A novel pH/salt-responsive porous microgel was developed from hydrolyzed oxidized starch for the encapsulation, delivery, and stabilization of anthocyanins . To synthesize this microgel, native corn starch was modified by sequential TEMPO oxidation and glucoamylase hydrolysis, using trisodium phosphate (STMP) as a cross-linker. The morphology, structure, and physical properties of the modified starch samples and microgels were characterized by SEM, ATR-FTIR, and particle size analyses, as well as by zeta-potential measurements. The obtained results indicate that compared to the oxidized microgels, the porous microgels exhibit higher capacity of anthocyanin loading and slower release. A pH of 3 is least favorable for the loading of anthocyanins into the microgels and 22.7% of the encapsulated anthocyanins are released from oxidized microgels, compared to 10.4% released from porous microgels. In addition, the porous microgels enhance the stability of anthocyanins, which facilitates storage. The residual rate of anthocyanins encapsulated in porous microgels is around 31%, whereas that of compounds in oxidized microgels approaches 18% after 30 d of storage.

In recent years, harmful microorganisms in water pose great harm to ecological environment and human health. To solve this problem, epsilon-poly- l -lysine (EPL) grafted cellulose beads were prepared via 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) mediated oxidation and carbodiimide mediated cross-linking reaction. Hydroxyl groups on C6 of cellulose were oxidized to carboxyl groups by TEMPO and grafting reaction was achieved between newly formed carboxyl groups of cellulose and amino of EPL. The beads were characterized by FTIR, SEM, XRD and TGA. The crystalline form of cellulose transformed from cellulose I to cellulose II after being dissolved and regenerated. The grafted cellulose beads showed good antibacterial activities against Gram-negative Escherichia coli , Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris with 10 h. The beads could be biodegraded in soil after 28 days. It is expected that the bio-based composite beads could have potential applications in water purification and food treatment fields.

Cattail is widely abounding in wetlands and marshes and is usually considered as an abundant and inexpensive biomass lignocellulose resource due to its rapid growth. In this paper, a novel cellulose (named as TOCF) separator for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) is successfully fabricated from cattail fibers by 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) oxidation and vacuum filtration. The proposed TOCF membrane shows good tensile strength (75 MPa), superior thermal dimensional stability, sufficient porosity (64.8%), outstanding liquid electrolyte uptake (323%) as well as large ionic conductivity (2.83 mS cm −1 ). Moreover, the Li/LiFePO 4 cell assembled using the TOCF separator demonstrates better discharge capacity and cycling stability than the cell with a commercial Celgard separator. Thus, the TOCF separator is a promising and low-cost candidate used in high-performance LIBs.

Developing bio-based adsorbents for efficient removal of heavy metal ions from water has attracted increasing attention due to their abundance, low cost, and sustainability. However, most of these adsorbents are in powdered or granular forms, suffering from difficult regeneration and poor recyclability. Here, we report a highly porous three-dimensional amino-functionalized wood aerogel for efficient heavy metal adsorption. The amino-functionalized wood aerogel was prepared from natural balsa wood via a delignification treatment, followed by TEMPO-mediated oxidation of the delignified wood and then grafting polyethylenimine (PEI) onto the oxidized cellulose skeleton. The obtained amino-functionalized wood aerogel possessed a unique porous lamellar structure with a low bulk density of 77.2 mg/cm3 and high porosity of 94.9%. Benefiting from its high porosity and the introduced amino groups on the cellulose skeleton, the amino-functionalized wood aerogel exhibited a maximum Cu(II) adsorption capacity of 59.8 mg·g−1, which was significantly higher than those of the TEMPO-oxidized wood aerogel and natural balsa wood. The adsorption process can be well described by the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models, indicating that the Cu(II) adsorption by the PEI@wood aerogel was dominated by a monolayer chemisorption process. The developed amino-functionalized wood aerogel provides new insights for the design of efficient and low-cost monolithic absorbents for heavy metal remediation.

In this study, the utilization of secondary pyrolysis oil-based drilling cuttings ash (OBDCA-sp) to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for pollutant removal was investigated. The chemical and physical properties of OBDCA-sp were explicitly analyzed via multiple characterization. The activation efficiency of OBDCA-sp for PMS was tested using humic acid (HA) as the target pollutant. 92% of HA and 52% of total organic carbon in solution could be removed using OBDCA-sp-activated PMS under optimal conditions: OBDCA-sp dosage at 4 g/L, PMS concentration at 4 mmol/L, HA concentration at 10 mg/L, and pH value at 7. After four cycles, 84% removal rate of HA could still be achieved using OBDCA-sp to activate PMS. The main catalysis elements for PMS activation in OBDCA were postulated to be Fe(III), Co(III), and Mn(III), based on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction results. The results of the quenching experiment indicated that SO4•–, •OH, and 1O2 were the main reactive oxygen species (ROS) and that 1O2 was the dominant ROS in the HA removal process. Radical trapping experiments indicated the presence of SO4•–, •OH, and 1O2 in the reaction system. This study presented a novel utilization path of OBDCA in the field of environmental remediation.

Plant fungal diseases can lead to yield reduction and quality degradation in crops, which usually cause serious economic losses. Additionally, chemical fungicides used in the prevention and control of plant diseases are increasingly restricted due to resistance development and high toxicity. Therefore, biogenic fungicides such as chitosan with low toxicity and good biocompatibility are receiving increasing attention. This study found that the acid swelling chitosan pretreatment method can accelerate the rate of the specific oxidation of chitosan catalyzed by the TEMPO-NaBr-NaOCl system. This study proved that OCTS induces plant disease resistance, and the control efficiencies achieved in protection and treatment experiments against Botrytis cinerea were 80.6 % and 83.4 %, respectively, at 400 μg/mL OCTS. In addition, OCTS can promote plant growth and enhance plant defense enzyme activities. This research has realized a forward-looking exploration of the application of OCTS in the agricultural field.

Hypothesis Hydrogel-based sensors have attracted considerable attention due to potential opportunities in human health monitoring when both mechanical flexibility and sensing ability are required. Therefore, the integration of excellent mechanical properties , electrical conductivity and self-healing properties into hydrogels may improve the application range and durability of hydrogel-based sensors. Experiments A novel composite hydrogel composed of polyaniline (PANI), polyacrylic acid (PAA) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNFs) was designed. The viscoelastic, mechanical, conductive, self-healing and sensing properties of hydrogels were studied. Findings The TOCNF/PANI/PAA hydrogel exhibits a fracture strain of 982%, tensile strength of 74.98 kPa and electrical conductivity of 3.95 S m −1 , as well as good mechanical and electrical self-healing properties within 6 h at ambient temperature without applying any stimuli. Furthermore, owing to the high sensitivity of the TOCNF/PANI/PAA-0.6 hydrogel-based strain sensor (gauge factor, GF = 8.0), the sensor can accurately and rapidly detect large-scale motion and subtle localized activity. The proposed composite hydrogel is as a promising material for use as soft wearable sensors for health monitoring and smart robotics applications.

Herein, we report the fabrication of Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 nanosheet/Ag/g-C 3 N 4 (Fe 3 O 4 @ns-TiO 2 /Ag/g-C 3 N 4 ) composite photocatalysts with well-designed hierarchical yolk-shell structure. To endow the composites with fascinating features, multiple functional components are perfectly integrated into the definite structure. The photodegradation experiments of organic pollutants revealed a significant enhancement in photocatalytic activity of developed composites as compared to P25, which is mainly due to the synergetic interaction of the tailored three-dimensional (3D) yolk-shell porous nanostructure, extended sunlight response range, and retarded the recombination probability of photogenerated electrons-holes. More importantly, the hybrid samples exhibited superior magnetic properties due to the magnetic component. The excellent magnetic recyclability and reusability of the photocatalysts are verified by the magnetic hysteresis loop and cyclic photocatalytic degradation experiments, which is significant for the green and sustainable applications of photocatalysts. Considering its remarkable photocatalytic performance and expectant magnetic recyclability, the composite photocatalysts are expected to be a promising candidate to dispose of future environmental issues.

In this work, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl-oxidized cellulose nanocrystals (TOCNs) were loaded into sodium alginate/chitosan multilayer film as nanofillers to investigate the modulation of the surface charge density of TOCNs on the film properties. First, the surface charge density of TOCNs was controlled by adjusting the carboxyl content and morphological size by varying the oxidant dosage. After oxidation , TOCN with higher surface charge density was observed to display a higher crystallinity, a more open internal structure, a better dispersibility and a slightly weaker thermal stability . In addition, a 15-layer film composed of sodium alginate and chitosan, called (SA/CH) 15 , was constructed by layer-by-layer assembly. Both in situ deposition monitoring and free-standing multilayer film formation indicated that TOCNs relied on strong electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding to achieve a compact and uniform interlayer and a thinner thickness of (SA/CH) 15 , which was more evident at a high surface charge density. The addition of TOCNs also enhanced the mechanical properties, thermal stability, hydrophobicity , and barrier properties of (SA/CH) 15 . In particular, the resulting sodium alginate/chitosan multilayer film exhibited an improved packaging performance when nanocomposite was performed using TOCN with a surface charge density of 3.22 ± 0.11 e nm −2 .
