文摘Exogenous organic input impacts soil phosphorus transformation.Meanwhile,dissolved organic matter(DOM)is crucial for biogeochemical functions.Nevertheless,the interaction between the structural composition of DOM and phosphorus during the soil formation process of phosphogypsum(PG)remains unknown.This study explores the interaction between the structural composition of DOM and phosphorus in enhanced PG under the participation of fungal microorganisms through different application amounts of exogenous organic matter and culture time.Results show that application of exogenous organic matter led to varying degrees of increase in dissolved organic carbon(DOC)concentration and humification extent in the soil-like substrate.Additionally,the relative abundance of protein-like component C3 exhibited a trend of initial increase followed by decline over time.The contents of available phosphorus(AP),microbial biomass phosphorus(MBP),and active phosphorus pools(Active-P)in the soil-like substrate are all enhanced overall.Furthermore,a significant correlation exists between DOC and AP as well as MBP.This suggests that DOM is a crucial factor in enhancing the phosphorus availability of the soil-like substrate.The enrichment of known phosphate-solubilizing fungi in culturing favors the decomposition,activation and utilization of hard-to-mineralize phosphorus components in the soil-like substrate.These findings help understand DOM’s biogeochemical behavior and offer insights into PG utilization and the sustainable development of China’s phosphorus industry.

文摘Phosphorus(P)is an essential nutrient for primary production and frequently acts as a limiting factor in estuaries.The Changjiang River Estuary,recognized as one of the largest estuaries globally,has experienced significant changes in nutrient dynamics due to anthropogenic activities.The recent reduction in P loading from the Changjiang River may have significant implications for the dynamics of dissolved inorganic phosphorus(DIP)within this estuarine system.Based on DIP data collected in 2017,2019,and 2023,combined with historical datasets,we aim to identify the drivers of DIP concentration changes in the Changjiang Estuary under the change in river inputs.The results indicate significant spatiotemporal variations in the distribution of DIP in the Changjiang Estuary,with the highest average concentration in winter.DIP exhibits non-conservative behavior along the salinity gradient,primarily influenced by biological utilization.Long-term DIP variations can be divided into three stages:a low-concentration period(1984–1987),a significant increase(1987–2014),and a decline(since 2015),with a current decreasing trend of 0.024μmol/(L·yr)(R^(2)=0.97,P<0.05).A discernible trend of P depletion in estuarine environments is observed,attributed to diminished riverine load and enhanced phytoplankton fixation.The reduction,and in some cases depletion,of DIP in the Changjiang Estuary has significantly altered the nitrogen-to-phosphorus ratio.The recent changes in total phosphorus(TP)compositions in the Changjiang Estuary are also attributed to a decrease in riverine input.Ongoing terrestrial nutrient management may further lower DIP concentrations,potentially impacting the estuarine ecosystem.

文摘Perovskite oxides are highly promising catalysts for the combustion removal of volatile organic compounds(VOCs)due to their excellent stability,structural flexibility,and compositional versatility.This study presents a novel perovskite oxide that exhibits enhanced catalytic activity and superior durability for toluene combustion at reduced temperatures.This improvement is achieved by phosphorus doping at the B-site of LaCoO_(3-δ)(LC)perovskite oxide,followed by post-synthesis acid etching for a proper time.The resulting catalyst demonstrates increased specific surface area,higher total pore volume,and enhanced oxygen vacancy concentration both in the bulk and on the surface.Additionally,the activity of surface lattice oxygen species is significantly improved,leading to enhanced catalytic performance in toluene combustion.Notably,the optimized catalyst shows an exceptionally low activation energy(E_(a))of 49.3 kJ mol^(-1),with a T90 reduction of over 214℃compared to the phosphorus doped LC and 190℃compared to pristine LC.Phosphorus doping plays a main role in significantly improving the long-term durability,particularly in the presence of CO_(2)and H_(2)O,while acid etching boosts the catalytic activity.This work introduces a rational and innovative strategy for optimizing VOC oxidation by improving the structure and surface chemical states of perovskite catalysts.
文摘The increasing global threat of water pollution demands advanced multilayer sensing technologies with efficacy to detect contaminants with high sensitivity and adaptability in complex aquatic environments.In this theoretical analysis,we investigated a novel multilayer surface plasmon resonance(SPR)system as an optical sensing platform to detect water pollutants and salinity concentrations.The proposed sensor comprised silver,barium borate(BBO),and black phosphorus(BP)layers on a Borokon 7(BK7)prism,which formed a tunable and highly responsive configuration under the Kretschmann geometry.It employed the transfer matrix method(TMM)and angular interrogation in the visible regime to evaluate reflectance spectra and key sensing parameters.The outcomes revealed that the sensor exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for refractive index(RI)variations corresponding to polluted water samples,including sodium chloride(NaCl)concentrations.The system exhibited strong plasmonic coupling and interfacial interactions,yielding the maximum sensitivity(138.7°/RIU)and figure of merit(73.57 RIU^(-1))toward water samples with 4%NaCl and chemical contamination,respectively.At refractive index of 1.33 and 1.34,by varying the layers of BBO and BP,the maximum sensitivity achieved was 320°/RIU with six BBO layers and a monolayer of BP.These results demonstrated that the proposed SPR sensor configuration,which successfully differentiated between various water quality levels based on refractive index variations,had tremendous potential for next‐generation real‐time water quality monitoring.

文摘The intrinsic insulation and drastic volume change of the red phosphorus during the 3-electron alloying process greatly limits its widespread applications in sodium-ion batteries.Here,we report a monomicelle-directed assembly approach for controllable synthesis of monodispersed mesoporous polypyrrole(PPy)nanospheres,which allows for the shape-preserving conversion into N-doped carbon with regular mesoscopic pore and high surface area,thus affording a high dispersion of red phosphorus during melt impregnation process due to the available diffusion apertures and strong molecular chemical anchoring.Moreover,the theoretical calculations further revealed that positively polarized pyridine N atoms in N-doped mesoporous carbon nanospheres can empower comprehensive regulation of red phosphorus adsorption by strong chemical binding.Benefitting from the above advantages,the resultant red phosphorus host for sodium-ion batteries delivered an outstanding reversible capacity of 856 mAh/g with a capacity fading rate of only 0.025%per cycle during 1000 cycles at 1.0 A/g.This work provides an effective approach based on monomicelle-directed assembly engineering of carbon-based phosphorus hosts for advanced energy conversion and storage systems.

文摘Violet phosphorus,a recently explored layered elemental semiconductor,has attracted much attention due to its unique photoelectric,mechanical properties,and high hole mobility.Herein,violet arsenic phosphorus has for the first time been synthesized by a molten lead method.The crystal structure of violet arsenic phosphorus(P^(83.4)As_(0.6),CSD-2408761)was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction to have similar structure as that of violet phosphorus,where P12 is occupied by arsenic/phosphorus(As/P)atoms as mixed occupancy sites As1/P12.The arsenic substitution has been demonstrated to tune the band structure of violet phosphorus,switching p-type of violet phosphorus to high-performance n-type violet arsenic phosphorus.The effective electron mass along the<010>direction is significantly reduced from 1.792 to 0.515 m_(0)by arsenic substitution,resulting in an extremely high electron mobility of 2622.503 cm^(2)V^(-1)s^(-1).The field effect transistor built with P_(83.4)As_(0.6)nanosheets was measured to have a high electron mobility(137.06 cm^(2)V^(-1)s^(-1),61.2 nm),even under ambient conditions for 5 h,much higher than the hole mobility of violet phosphorene nanosheets(4.07 cm^(2)V^(-1)s^(-1),73.3 nm).This work provides a new idea for designing phosphorus-based materials for field effect transistors,giving significant potential in complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor applications.

文摘Nanoscale red phosphorus(NRP)was synthesized via a phosphorus-amine dissolution method and immobilized onto mesoporous silica nanospheres(MSNs)to obtain hybrid NRP@MSN particles with improved dispersion stability.Epoxy resin(EP)composites containing 2 wt%fillers were prepared to evaluate their thermal and flame-retardant behaviors.Compared with EP,the NRP@MSNs/EP composite significantly enhanced fire safety,resulting in a 52.8%reduction in the peak heat release rate,a 13.9%decrease in total smoke production,and a 165%increase in char yield.Mechanical testing revealed a notable toughening effect under impact loading.The improved flame retardancy originates from the combined nano-barrier effect of MSNs and the catalytic charring and radical-quenching functions of NRP.This work demonstrates an efficient strategy for stabilizing NRP and highlights its strong potential as an environmentally friendly flame retardant for EP systems.

文摘Phosphorus(P)leaching in alkaline soils,exacerbated by excessive fertilizer application,represents a significant pathway for P loss.While soil pore structure and texture critically regulate P transport,mechanisms governing P loss in texturally diverse alkaline soils remain unclear.This study investigated P leaching dynamics and transport parameters across four alkaline soil textures(silty clay,clay loam,loam,sandy loam)using a one-dimensional convective-diffusion equation(CDE)based on column experiments.Results indicated that phosphorus leaching kinetics were predominantly governed by diffusion transport,evidenced by low Peclet numbers(P_(e))(ranged from 0.02 to 0.31)across varying textures and initial P concentrations(C_(0)).Comparative analysis of transport parameters revealed significant textural effects on dispersion coefficient(D),retardation factor(R),pore water velocity(V),P_(e),and diffusion coefficient(λ)(F>523.42,p<0.001).Among these,only D,P_(e) andλexhibited substantial differences in response to variations in C_(0)(F>89.47,p<0.001).Saturated hydraulic conductivity(K_(s))(R^(2)=62.9%,p<0.01)and total pore area(A)(R^(2)=12.4%,p<0.01)emerged as primary regulators of P leaching.Enhanced clay content increased total pore area while reducing average pore diameter,concurrently decreasing pore water velocity and saturated infiltration rates.These textural modifications amplified diffusive P transport within soil matrices.The findings provide mechanistic insights into texturedependent P mobility in alkaline environments,informing targeted strategies for agricultural phosphorus management.

文摘Urine consists of approximately 95%water,3.5%organic matter,and 1.5%inorganic salts.Membrane distillation(MD)offers a potential approach for urine resource utilization.To some extent,it reduces the loss of nitrogen and phosphorus resources.However,MD is also accompanied by problems such as high membrane cost,membrane fouling and membrane wetting.In light of these issues,this study employs polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)as the separation layer and polypropylene(PP)as the support layer to make a distillation membrane.The feasibility and efficiency of the PTFE-PP membrane in intercepting and recovering nitrogen and phosphorus from source-separated urine were investigated.Results obtained through 14 days of continuous operation demonstrated that the recovery rates of nitrogen and phosphorus were 95%and 99%,respectively.The dissolved organic carbon recovery rate was 95%,and urea as well as the macromolecular organic matter in dissolved organic matter were significantly intercepted.The phosphorus content in the permeate was 0.022 mg/L,which met theⅡclass standard of China’s surface water and the basic water use standard of the United States Environmental Protection Agency.This finding reduces the pressure on sewage treatment plants.PTFE-PP distillation membrane has important potential in recovering nitrogen and phosphorus from urine and alleviating global water shortage.

文摘The large volume expansion and rapid capacity attenuation of tin-based electrodes are the main factors limiting their commercial application.The reasonable design of electrode material structure is particularly important for improving its electrochemical performance.Herein,phosphorus-modified graphene encapsulated Sn_(6)O_(4)(OH)_(4)nanoparticles composite(P-Sn_(6)O_(4)(OH)_(4)@RGO)with crystalline-amorphous heterostructure has been successfully designed and prepared.The design of crystalline-amorphous structure has largely enhanced the active sites,and the construction of a graphene encapsulation structure has greatly alleviated volume expansion.Notably,P-Sn_(6)O_(4)(OH)_(4)@RGO obtained an excellent high-rate longterm cycling performance for lithium-ion batteries anode,reaching a high specific capacity of 970 m Ah/g at 1.0 A/g after 1450 cycles.This work demonstrates that restructuring the electrode material's structure and phase through phosphorus modification can effectively improve the electrochemical performance of tin-based electrode materials.

文摘Understanding how different vegetation-based restoration practices alter soil chemical and microbial characteristics is crucial,as restoration practices influence phosphorus(P)transformation and fractions and modify P adsorption behavior during the restoration process of degraded land.This study investigated the impacts of vegetation-based restoration practices on soil chemical and microbial parameters,P fractions,and patterns of P adsorption and desorption,and highlighted the combined influence on P availability.To evaluate the impact of vegetation-based restoration practices on P fractions and adsorption behavior in the semi-arid degraded land in India,this study compared three distinct tree-based restoration systems,including Leucaena leucocephala(Lam.)de Wit-based silviculture system(SCS),Acacia nilotica(L.)Willd.ex Delile-based silvopasture system(SPS),and Emblica officinalis Gaertn-based hortipasture system(HPS),with a natural grassland system(NGS)and a degraded fallow system(FS)as control.The soil samples across various soil depths(0-15,15-30,and 30-45 cm)were collected.The findings demonstrated that SCS,SPS,and HPS significantly improved soil organic carbon(SOC)and nutrient availability.Moreover,SCS and SPS resulted in increased microbial biomass phosphorus(MBP)content and phosphatase enzyme activity.The P fractionation analysis revealed that ferrum-associated phosphorus(Fe-P)was the major P fraction,followed by aluminum-associated phosphorus(Al-P),reflecting the dominance of ferrum(Fe)and aluminum(Al)oxides in the semi-arid degraded land.Compared with FS,vegetation-based restoration practices significantly increased various P fractions across soil depths.Additionally,P adsorption and desorption analysis indicated a lower adsorption capacity in tree-based restoration systems than in FS,with FS soils adsorbing higher P quantities in the adsorption phase but releasing less P during the desorption phase.This study revealed that degraded soils responded positively to ecological restoration in terms of P fraction and desorption behavior,influencing the resupply of P in restoration systems.Consequently,litter rich N-fixing tree-based restoration systems(i.e.,SCS and SPS)increased total phosphorus(TP)stock for plants and sustained the potential for long-term P supply in semi-arid ecosystems.With the widespread adoption of restoration practices across degraded landscapes,SCS and SPS would significantly contribute to soil restoration and improve productivity by maintaining the soil P supply in semi-arid ecosystems in India.

文摘Phosphorus(P)is an essential nutrient for crop growth,making it important for maintaining food security as the global population continues to increase.Plants acquire P primarily via the uptake of inorganic phosphate(Pi)in soil through their roots.Pi,which is usually sequestered in soils,is not easily absorbed by plants and represses plant growth.Plants have developed a series of mechanisms to cope with P deficiency.Moreover,P fertilizer applications are critical for maximizing crop yield.Maize is a major cereal crop cultivated worldwide.Increasing its P-use efficiency is important for optimizing maize production.Over the past two decades,considerable progresses have been achieved in studies aimed at adapting maize varieties to changes in environmental P supply.Here,we present an overview of the morphological,physiological,and molecular mechanisms involved in P acquisition,translocation,and redistribution in maize and combine the advances in Arabidopsis and rice,to better elucidate the progress of P nutrition.Additionally,we summarize the correlation between P and abiotic stress responses.Clarifying the mechanisms relevant to improving P absorption and use in maize can guide future research on sustainable agriculture.

文摘Simple cubic black phosphorus(BP)has been recognized as a strategic material due to its exceptional structural stability under extreme conditions.In this investigation,simple cubic BP was successfully synthesized through shock-induced phase transformation,utilizing amorphous red phosphorus as the precursor material.The phase evolution process was systematically investigated using plane shock loading apparatus,with shock pressure and temperature parameters being precisely controlled to optimize transformation kinetics.Comprehensive phase characterization revealed the correlation between thermodynamic loading profiles and cubic BP formation efficiency.Precursor modification strategies were implemented through orthorhombic BP utilization,resulting in enhanced cubic phase yield and crystallinity.The synthesized cubic BP variants are considered promising candidates for advanced protective material systems,particularly where combinations of mechanical resilience and thermal stability are required under extreme operational conditions.This research provides critical insights into shock-induced phase transformation mechanics,while establishing foundational protocols for manufacturing non-equilibrium materials with potential applications in next-generation defensive technologies.

文摘Nitrogen(N)and phosphorus(P)are mineral nutrients essential for plant growth and development,playing a crucial role throughout the plant life cycle.Cotton,a globally significant textile crop,has a particularly high demand for N fertilizer across its developmental stages.This review explores the effects of adequate or deficient N and P levels on cotton growth phases,focusing on their influence on physiological processes and molecular mechanisms.Key topics include the regulation of N-and P-related enzymes,hormones,and genes,as well as the complex interplay of N-and P-related signaling pathways from the aspects of N-P signaling integration to regulate root development,N-P signaling integration to regulate nutrient uptake,and regulation of N-P interactions—a frontier in current research.Strategies for improving N and P use efficiency are also discussed,including developing high-efficiency cotton cultivars and identifying functional genes to enhance productivity.Generally speaking,we take model plants as a reference in the hope of coming up with new strategies for the efficient utilization of N and P in cotton.

文摘Rice-fish coculture(RFC)has aroused extensive concern for its contribution to food security and resource conservation,but whether it can improve soil phosphorus(P)availability and affect microbe-mediated P turnover remains elusive.Herein,we conducted a microcosm experiment to assess the impacts of RFC combined with(50 mg P kg^(-1)as KH2PO4)and without inorganic P addition on P fractions,P availability,and phoD-harboring bacterial community composition.The results revealed that RFC without P addition significantly improved P availability and phosphatase activity in paddy soil,while soil available P(AP),pH,and microbial biomass P(MBP)contributed to regulating P fractions.Moreover,the phoD-harboring bacterial abundance was linked to phosphatase activity,AP,total carbon(TC),and total P(TP)contents,and the ratios of TC to total nitrogen(TN)and TN to TP.We also found that the keystone taxa of phoD-harboring bacteria contributed to phosphatase production as well as organic P mineralization,thereby improving P availability.Our findings suggest that RFC without P addition is beneficial for promoting the expression of phoD-harboring bacterial functions to improve the capacity of P mineralization.Overall,our study provides insights into the responses of phoD-harboring bacterial functions for P turnover to RFC combined with and without P addition,showing the potential utilization of P resources in agricultural soil and the contribution of phosphatase activity to P acquisition in agriculture ecosystem.

文摘The rapidly growing demand for lithium iron phosphate(LiFePO_(4))as the cathode material of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)has aggravated the scarcity of phosphorus(P)reserves on Earth.This study introduces an environmentally friendly and economical method of P recovery from municipal wastewater,providing the P source for LiFePO_(4) cathodes.The novel approach utilizes the sludge of Fe-coagulant-based chemical P removal(CPR)in wastewater treatment.After a sintering treatment with acid washing,the CPR sludge,enriched with P and Fe,transforms into purified P-Fe oxides(Fe2.1P1.0O5.6).These oxides can substitute up to 35%of the FePO_(4) reagent as precursor,producing a carbon-coated LiFePO_(4)(LiFePO_(4)/C)cathode with a specific discharge capacity of 114.9 mA·h·g^(-1)at current density of 17 mA·g^(-1)),and cycle stability of 99.2%after 100 cycles.The enhanced cycle performance of the as-prepared LiFePO_(4)/C cathode may be attributed to the incorporations of impurities(such as Ca^(2+)and Na^(+))from sludge,with improved stability of crystal structure.Unlike conventional P-fertilizers,this P recovery technology converts 100%of P in CPR sludge into the production of value-added LiFePO_(4)/C cathodes.The recovered P from municipal wastewater can meet up to 35%of the P demand in the Chinese LIBs industry,offering a cost-effective solution for addressing the pressing challenges of P scarcity.

文摘The leaf nitrogen(N)to phosphorus(P)ratio(N:P)is a critical indicator of nutrient dynamics and ecosystem function.Investigating temporal variations in leaf N:P can provide valuable insights into how plants adapt to environmental changes and nutrient availability.However,limited research has been conducted on long-term temporal leaf N:P variation over a range of temperature zones.Using long-term monitoring data from the Chinese Ecosystem Research Network(CERN),we investigated temporal changes in leaf N and P stoichiometry for 50 dominant tree species from 10 typical forest sites across temperate and subtropical regions,and identified the underlying mechanisms driving these changes.For both regions combined,leaf P concentration of the 50 dominant tree species decreased(20.6%),whereas leaf N:P increased(52.0%)from 2005 to 2020.Leaf P decreased and leaf N:P increased in 67% and 69% of the tree species,respectively.The leaf N:P increase was primarily driven by the tree species in eastern subtropical forests,where global change factors and soil nutrients explained 68% of leaf N:P variation.The P limitation exhibited by tree species in eastern subtropical forest ecosystems intensified over time,and elevated temperature and CO_(2) levels,coupled with decreased soil available P concentrations,appear to be the main factors driving long-term leaf N:P increases in these forests.Investigating long-term variations in soil nutrients together with global change factors will improve our understanding of the nutrient status of forest ecosystems in the context of global change and will support effective forest ecosystem management.

文摘Climate change is expected to alter the frequency and intensity of drying-rewetting cycles,impacting water availability and consequently soil nutrient availability.However,the effects of these fluctuations on the chemical speciation and bioavailability of phosphorus(P)in soil remain uncertain,both in the presence of desert species and in their absence.We conducted a pot experiment involving bare soil(absence of plants)and two desert species(Alhagi sparsifolia and Calligonum mongolicum)to determine the short-term impacts of drought(no water supply),drying-rewetting 1(D-RW1,high frequency of low water inputs),and drying-rewetting 2(D-RW2,low frequency of high water inputs)on soil Hedley P pools,plant P concentration,and plant biomass accumulation.Results demonstrated that the presence of plants significantly increased soil labile P and organic P(Po)concentrations by 60%–150%and 1%–68%,respectively,compared to the absence of plants.Both D-RW1 and D-RW2 treatments significantly increased soil dissolved organic carbon concentration by 2%–35%relative to the drought treatment.Moreover,in the presence of A.sparsifolia,soil resin-extractable P and NaHCO_(3)-extractable inorganic P(Pi)concentrations in the D-RW1 treatment significantly increased by 31%and 75%,respectively,when compared to the drought treatment,with the NaHCO_(3)-and NaOH-extractable Po concentrations in the D-RW2 treatment rising by 14%and 32%,respectively.Furthermore,the D-RW2 treatment significantly increased leaf P concentration and plant biomass compared to the D-RW1 and drought treatments.Overall,compared to the drought treatment,frequent low-intensity drying-rewetting cycles enhanced soil Pi turnover,whereas infrequent high-intensity drying-rewetting cycles increased Po turnover and P bioavailability.These findings will inform better water management strategies for desertification restoration in hyper-arid desert ecosystems.
