Valorization of corn straw digestate compost via hydrothermal humification for sustainable humic acid production
Corn straw (CS) digestate, rich in lignocellulose, generates substantial residues after anaerobic digestion. This study explored the hydrothermal humification (HTH) characteristics of CS digestate (CSD) and CSD compost (CSDC) from a continuous-feed biogas project. After HTH at 180 °C for 4 h, the humic-like fluorescence signals and humic acid (HA) yield of CSDC were significantly higher than those of CS and CSD, with a maximum HA yield of 31.66 wt%, 3.1 and 2.6 times greater, respectively. Lignin degradation during HTH (removal rates of 71.78 %–87.58 %) promoted HA formation. The HA from CSDC exhibited a composition and morphology more similar to lignite HA, featuring higher aliphatic carbon and surface oxygen content, closely resembling black soil HA. These properties endowed it with enhanced aromaticity, ion-exchange capacity, and biodegradability. A germination test showed that 0.001 % HA treatment achieved a germination index of 132 %. Thus, CSDC is an excellent feedstock for artificial HA production, supporting the high-value utilization of CS digestate.
期刊介绍:
Biomass & Bioenergy is an international journal publishing original research papers and short communications, review articles and case studies on biological resources, chemical and biological processes, and biomass products for new renewable sources of energy and materials.
The scope of the journal extends to the environmental, management and economic aspects of biomass and bioenergy.
Key areas covered by the journal:
• Biomass: sources, energy crop production processes, genetic improvements, composition. Please note that research on these biomass subjects must be linked directly to bioenergy generation.
• Biological Residues: residues/rests from agricultural production, forestry and plantations (palm, sugar etc), processing industries, and municipal sources (MSW). Papers on the use of biomass residues through innovative processes/technological novelty and/or consideration of feedstock/system sustainability (or unsustainability) are welcomed. However waste treatment processes and pollution control or mitigation which are only tangentially related to bioenergy are not in the scope of the journal, as they are more suited to publications in the environmental arena. Papers that describe conventional waste streams (ie well described in existing literature) that do not empirically address ''new'' added value from the process are not suitable for submission to the journal.
• Bioenergy Processes: fermentations, thermochemical conversions, liquid and gaseous fuels, and petrochemical substitutes
• Bioenergy Utilization: direct combustion, gasification, electricity production, chemical processes, and by-product remediation
• Biomass and the Environment: carbon cycle, the net energy efficiency of bioenergy systems, assessment of sustainability, and biodiversity issues.
