Biochar, derived from biomass pyrolysis, offers tunable surface functionalities, high stability, and cost-effectiveness, establishing it as a viable alternative to conventional catalyst support. This review offers the first comprehensive overview of recent advancements in functionalized biochar-based catalysts for the synthesis of O and N-heterocycles. Particular focus is given to their applications in forming pharmaceutically and industrially important heterocycles, including chromenes, pyranopyrazoles, pyrazolopyridines, tetrazoles, oxindole dihydropyridines, benzylpyrazolyl coumarins, quinazolinones, spirochromenes, furoquinolines, and cyclic carbonates. This review explores the synthesis, functionalization, and catalytic performance of biochar, predominantly prepared via pyrolysis of diverse, renewable feedstocks such as chicken manure, neem bark, and wheat straw. These catalysts exhibit tailored properties, including large surface area, tunable porosity, and functional enhancements (e.g., by increasing reaction rates, selectivity, etc.) through the incorporation of magnetic, acidic, or metallic components. The review provides comparative insights into catalyst reusability, reaction efficiency, and mechanistic pathways, highlighting biochar's ability to replace hazardous reagents in heterocyclic synthesis. Additionally, examples are categorized by heterocycle type, offering detailed analyses of catalyst design, functionality, and advantages. The findings underscore the transformative potential of biochar-based catalysts in advancing green chemistry, while also pointing to opportunities for further innovation in this emerging field.</p>","PeriodicalId":312,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Research","volume":" ","pages":"122136"},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144339735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The samples were tested for metal(loid)s, and the pollution load index (PLI) and Nemerow Integrated Pollution Index (NIPI) were used to assess contamination.

PLI levels ranged from 0.118-65.8, with the active mining community Globe-Miami showing the highest range (0.244-65.8). The PLI was significantly greater during the monsoon season than during the winter season for all the communities (p < 0.05). Compared with urban communities (0.118-13.1), active mining communities (0.169-65.8) had higher PLI values. pH was positively correlated with PLI in Tucson (β = ln 0.27). In non-urban/rural mining communities, locations closer to potential contamination sources had higher PLI values (β = ln -0.33 to -0.38).

In this work, plasma samples from two regions of Gipuzkoa have been analyzed from 207 children at early childhood, 241 children, and 167 adolescents in the INMA Gipuzkoa Spanish birth cohort (2011-2022) for 42 targeted PFAS.

Understanding its spatial associations at both intra-stratum and inter-strata levels is essential for effective pollution control. However, research on spatial stratified heterogeneity and spillover effects of ozone pollution remains limited. This study applies a hybrid model integrating random forest, SHapley Additive exPlanations, and geographically weighted regression to investigate the spatial heterogeneity and spillover effects of ozone pollution. Principal component analysis and geographically and temporally weighted regression were further used to assess local environmental drivers of ozone spillover. The results indicate a fluctuating upward trend in ozone concentrations with enhanced spatial clustering. Intra-stratum associations in South, Central, and East China and inter-strata associations in Northeast and North China exhibited strengthening trends. Ozone spillover levels were highest in North China, with a slight decline, followed by Northwest and Northeast China, where spillover decreased more markedly. In contrast, Southwest, East, South, and Central China—regions with previously low spillover levels—showed a fluctuating increase. Industrial structure was the primary driver of ozone spillover across all regions and years; regions historically dominated by the secondary sector experienced spillover reduction following structural adjustments. Technology expenditure mitigated ozone spillover in North China but intensified it in Southwest China. The effects of relative humidity, ventilation coefficient, and mean sea level pressure on ozone spillover emerged in Central and Eastern China.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":312,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Research","volume":"283 ","pages":"Article 122201"},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144330621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As endogenous microorganisms, hydrocarbon oxidizing bacteria (HOB) play a vital role in degrading hydrocarbons in oil-contaminated environments. However, accurately identifying and tracking HOB distribution remain difficult due to the low conservative and high diversity of their key alkane monooxygenase genes (alkBs). Here, we proposed a workflow with multiple-primers-based epicPCR processes to identify HOBs in the environment. Epic-alkB database, which contained 14 times more genera and 6 times more phyla than the known database (AlkBase, 23 genera and 4 phyla) was built successfully with 5 pairs of major primers, and some of the genera coexist in both databases or specific to the epic-alkB database were functionally validated by newly isolated HOBs. The addition of multiple primer pairs enabled us to obtain accurate HOBs with higher coverage and diversity than AlkBase. Besides, the alkB genes varied among microorganisms. unclassified_Ignavibacteriales, Pseudomonas, and Thalassolituus were mainly amplified by alkB_4/5/6 respectively, with alkB_6 being the most prevalent and abundant. In conclusion, an epicPCR-based workflow was provided to facilitate the accurate identification of HOBs and the exploration of the distribution of alkB genes in the biosphere, which greatly expands the bacterial species for aerobic hydrocarbon degradation and offers a universal approach for the identification and quantification of isozyme genes in the environment.</p>","PeriodicalId":312,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Research","volume":" ","pages":"122167"},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144339733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
