In this paper, the preparation of a porous friction course (PFC) with styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS)-modified asphalt and fibers instead of a high-viscosity-modified asphalt was investigated. The aggregate gradation B was chosen to prepare the PFC, and the optimal asphalt content in the PFC containing lignin or basalt fibers was determined to be 4.5% by the Cantabro abrasion experiment and Schellenberg draindown experiment. The freeze-thaw split experiment and immersed Marshall experiment indicated that with the addition of the fiber, the residual stability increased by 7.6 and 2.4% for the PFC with the lignin and basalt fibers, respectively, indicating that fibers can enhance the moisture damage resistance of the PFC. Furthermore, the dynamic stability increased by 17.9 and 6.0% for the PFC with the lignin and basalt fibers, respectively, indicating that fibers can significantly enhance the rutting resistance of the PFC at high temperatures. These results prove that the PFC prepared by SBS-modified asphalt and lignin/basalt fibers reaches the standard of pavement performance.

Climate warming is expected to destabilize permafrost carbon (PF-C) by thaw-erosion and deepening of the seasonally thawed active layer and thereby promote PF-C mineralization to CO and CH. A similar PF-C remobilization might have contributed to the increase in atmospheric CO during deglacial warming after the last glacial maximum. Using carbon isotopes and terrestrial biomarkers (ΔC, δC, and lignin phenols), this study quantifies deposition of terrestrial carbon originating from permafrost in sediments from the Chukchi Sea (core SWERUS-L2-4-PC1).

Wastewater environment is a rich source of microorganisms with the capability for the degradation of malicious aromatic pollutants. Although wastewater could be regarded as both a resource and a problem, we intended to elucidate its beneficial aspect in this study sourcing for laccase-producing proteobacteria. Different wastewater samples, from selected wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), were selectively enriched with some model compounds (vanillin, lignin and potassium hydrogen phthalate) to screen out bacterial isolates that possess excellent degradation potentials.

Papermaking sludge and spent pickling liquor were recycled to synthesize a macromolecular lignin-acrylamide polymer (LA) and polyferric chloride (PFC), respectively. The dual-coagulant PFC-LA (PFC and LA were dosed orderly), composite coagulant PFCLA (PFC and LA premixed before dosed) and PFC were used in coagulation/ultrafiltration hybrid process in surface water treatment. The objectives of this paper are to comparatively investigate final water quality after coagulation and coagulation/ultrafiltration process and floc properties, including floc size, strength, recoverability and floc structure, with or without LA addition.

Motivated by the need to develop clean, high purity preparative enrichments of individual compounds for micro-scale compound-specific natural abundance isotope and radiocarbon ((14)C) analyses, we describe a new, two-dimensional, heart-cutting, low-bleed, three-oven, single GC preparative system, demonstrate its resolving capabilities as applied to a typically complex environmental sample matrix, and investigate the robustness with which it preserves the authigenic (13)C/(12)C and (14)C/(12)C ratios of individual compounds it targets for preparative enrichment. The system is comprised of a programmable temperature vaporizing (PTV) inlet, a single GC oven, two modular, door-mounted, resistively heated low thermal mass (LTM) columns, a preparative fraction collector (PFC), and a Deans pneumatic switching device which facilitates heart-cutting between the system's 1° and 2° chromatographic dimensions. Further, the system's inlet and trapping parameters are optimized for the efficient preparative enrichment of the methyl ether and ester derivatives of the lignin phenol compound class.
