AB  - Thermo-chemical conversion via the pyrolysis of cigarette butt (CB) filters was successfully valorized and upcycled in the pre-carbonization and carbonization stages. The pre-carbonization stage (devolatilization) of the precursor material (cellulose acetate filter, r-CAcF) was analyzed by micro-scale experiments under non-isothermal conditions using TG-DTG-DTA and DSC techniques. The results of a detailed kinetic study showed that the decomposition of r-CAcF takes place via complex mechanisms, including consecutive reaction steps and two single-step reactions. Consecutive stages include the α-transition referred to as a cellulose polymorphic transformation (cellulose I → II) through crystallization mechanism changes, where a more thermodynamically ordered system was obtained. It was found that the transformation rate of cellulose I → II (‘cellulose regeneration’) is strongly affected by the presence of alkali metals and the deacetylation process. Two single-step reactions showed significant overlapping behavior, which involves a nucleation-controlled scission mechanism (producing levoglucosan, gaseous products, and abundant radicals) and hydrolytic decomposition of cellulose by catalytic cleavage of glycosidic bonds with the presence of an acidic catalyst. A macro-scale experiment showed that the operating temperature and heating rate had the most notable effects on the total surface area of the manufactured carbon. A substantial degree of mesoporosity with a median pore radius of 3.1695 nm was identified. The presence of macroporosity on the carbon surface and acidic surface functional groups was observed.

AB  - Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a class of plant hormones that play important roles in regulating various physiological and developmental processes in plants. One of the most effective BRs involved in modulating crop growth is 24-epibrassinolide (24-EBL). The effects of different concentrations of 24-EBL on various biochemical and biophysical parameters critical to early growth stages and seedling development were investigated using two maize hybrids, ‘ZP 434’ (a new-generation hybrid) and ‘ZP 704’ (an older-generation hybrid). The evaluation of results is based on measurements of germination percentage, morphometric parameters, redox status, comparative analysis of thermodynamic parameters (such as Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, entropy), and the concentration of specific sugars in different parts of maize seedlings. The results indicate that the germination and initial growth of maize seedlings are influenced by the flow of crucial sugars from the remaining seed (as a source of nutrients) towards the plumule and radicle (as sink organs). Furthermore, alterations in Gibbs free energy play a significant role in these sugar transfers within the maize seedlings. The seed germination was most affected by the highest concentrations of 24-EBL, showing inhibitory effects, whereas lower and moderate concentrations of exogenously added 24-EBL exhibited a beneficial influence on the initial phases of seedling growth. The mentioned approach gives new insights into source–sink relationships and can be used as a quantitative measure of the germination energy, which until now has been a qualitative criterion in seed science.

AB  - Otpad od cigareta u vidu opuška je jedan od najviše zastupljenih oblika otpada na svetu. U sebi sadrži više od 5000 toksičnih sastojaka i hemikalija koje predstavljaju ozbiljan rizik po zdravlje divljih životinja, ljudi i morskih i slatkovodnih organizama. Svake godine se širom sveta proizvedu milijarde cigareta, što rezultira akumulacijom više tona toksičnog otpada. U zavisnosti od uslova okoline i vremenskih prilika, celuloznim acetatnim filterima može biti potrebno i do 10 godina da se u potpunosti razgrade i za to vreme u okolinu konstantno ispuštaju teške metale i toksične hemikalije. Iako moguće metode odlaganja sakupljenih opušaka od cigareta uključuju spaljivanje i odlaganje na deponije, tehnike mogu rezultirati ispuštanjem opasnih isparenja i mogu biti skupe. Obrada i recikliranje opušaka i njihova konverzija u različite materijale bi mogli biti potencijalno rešenje za nastalo zagađivanje životne sredine. Do objavljivanja ovog pregleda postoji nekoliko studija i radova o reciklaži opušaka sa ohrabrujućim rezultatima i u određenom broju istih su proučavane metode, uključujući recikliranje opušaka u asfaltnom betonu i pečenoj cigli, kao izvor ugljenika, materijal koji apsorbuje zvuk, inhibitor korozije, nosač biofilma i mnogi drugi.
AB  - Cigarette waste in the form of cigarette butts is one of the most common forms of waste in the world. It contains more than 5,000 toxic ingredients and chemicals that pose a serious risk to the health of wildlife, humans and marine and freshwater organisms. Billions of cigarettes are produced worldwide every year, resulting in the accumulation of tons of toxic waste. Depending on the environmental conditions and weather conditions, cellulose acetate filters can take up to 10 years to completely decompose, during which time heavy metals and toxic chemicals are constantly released into the environment. Although possible methods of disposing of collected cigarette butts include incineration and landfilling, techniques can result in the release of hazardous fumes and can be expensive. Treatment and recycling of cigarette butts and their conversion into different materials could be a potential solution to the resulting environmental pollution. Until the publication of this review, there are several studies and papers on cigarette recycling with encouraging results and a number of them have been studied methods, including recycling cigarette butts in asphalt concrete and baked brick, as a carbon source, sound-absorbing material, corrosion inhibitor, biofilm carrier and many others.
