AB  - The decrease of fossil fuel resources as well as associated pollution induced by its applications has
increased the interest in findings of renewable fuels from various biomasses such as wood, energy
crops, and various waste disposed from agricultural and food-industry activities. Especially
interesting is lignocellulosic waste (LCW) biomass, found in large quantities after processing of the
raw biomass, which pose certain energetic properties that might be used to fulfil future
sustainability demands. This paper describes the thermal decomposition of waste peach stones (PS)
investigated via thermogravimetric (TG) analyses. TG/DTG analyses provided a set of experimental
mass loss data (obtained under different conditions), which were modelled by different kinetic
models, resulting in parameters that might be used for industrial application of the tested biofuel.
The goal of analyzing the kinetics of thermal degradation was to establish a relationship between
the rate of degradation, degree of conversion (α) and temperature. In this sense, the investigation of
the kinetics of thermal degradation was performed in non-isothermal conditions, with the heating
speed varying from 5 to 20 ºC/min in an oxygen stream. Activation energy (Ea) of the PS thermal
degradation was determined using Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) isoconversional model free method.
The possible reaction mechanism that controls the process was investigated by the method of Coats-
Redfern (C-R). The values of the Ea obtained by this method were not constant with the change in
the degree of conversion (α), indicating that the thermal decomposition of PS represents a complex
process that cannot be described by a one-step reaction in the entire range of conversions. PS
waste samples investigated in this paper, have certain physical and chemical properties which
satisfy request for energy density, small ash content and safe burn out. Presented results might
support the value of biowaste in a future circular bio economy of Serbia.

AB  - Renewable hydrogen produced from the waste streams can be a good option for clean energy production and reduction of greenhouse gases emissions into the environment. In this study, the potential for hydrogen production from the food industry wastewaters in Serbia and the further use of the calculated potentials were investigated. This was performed through two technological routes including the biogas steam reforming process and the electrolysis after biogas cogeneration process. Furthermore, the environmental impacts of these processes were considered. The total hydrogen potential via the biogas steam reforming process was 4094.70 tons, while the total hydrogen potential via the electrolysis after biogas cogeneration process was 1751.08 tons. These potentials can be used for direct energy production in the food industry, electricity production for the national electric grid, transport, injection in the natural gas grid and/or as a resource in the chemical industry. Regarding the Greenhouse Gas emissions reduction, hydrogen production by both routes represents a promising pathway. The results of this work can serve the decision makers to plan hydrogen application in the energy sector of the Republic of Serbia defining supporting measures for its application. Also, the presented analysis is enforceable in the Western Balkan countries for the application of hydrogen as an energy source in their systems for energy production, transport and economy.

AB  - In this paper, the character of structural changes induced by different mechanical treatments to Prunus persica stones (PSs), and its subsequent effect on biosorption kinetics of Cu(II) were investigated. PSs were processed in vibratory disk mill (PS-V) and ultra-centrifugal mill (PS-C) and characterized by XRD, BET, SEM and FTIR spectroscopy. It was shown that PS-V was smaller and more reactive with less crystallinity index and hydrogen bond intensity compared to PS-C. In opposite, surface area of the PS-C was bigger than that of the PS-V. The total pore volume was about threefold, while the volume of micro pores was 9.29 times higher in PS-Cs than in PS-Vs. The kinetics of Cu(II) biosorption by both PSs was tested through various kinetic models: pseudo-first and pseudo-second order rate equations, Elovich equation, Boyd model, Weber-Morris and Urano-Tachikawa intraparticle diffusion model. For both sample types, Cu(II) biosorption occurred through combination of intraparticle and film diffusion mechanism, while kinetic results were best described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model. At the same time, the results indicated that together with kinetic rate the biosorption capacity of PS-C (21.20 mg g(-1)) was higher than that of PS-V (16.30 mg g(-1)). Mechanical activation like crushing and grinding will change material particle size, specific surface area and porosity, as well as its crystallinity. However, this paper elucidates that such physical structural changes will impact on heavy metal ions removal efficiency. This investigation suggests that the type of size reduction in lignocellulosic biosorbent preparation plays a very important role in overall biosorption performance, so it should be carefully considered every time when the mechanical treatment of material is necessary to be applied.

AB  - This paper presents an eco-friendly approach for minimizing heavy metal pollution, offering food waste valorization and energy source at the same time. It focuses on Cu(II) sorption by low cost sorbent developed by mechanical treatment of Prunus persica L. stones, a food industry waste biomass. Removal of Cu(II) was studied at different operating parameters in a batch sorption system, with special attention on temperature effect on sorption process. The pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and Elovich model were applied to test kinetic experimental data. Equilibrium experimental results were fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich, Sips, Toth and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms to elucidate the type and sorption performance. Characteristic functional groups responsible for Cu(II) binding and thermal behavior of PS have been investigated using FT-IR and TGA analyses. The activation parameters were calculated using Arrhenius and Eyring equations. Using equilibrium data at different temperatures, thermodynamic parameters Delta G degrees, Delta H degrees and Delta S degrees were calculated, suggesting that the sorption of Cu(II) on PS is spontaneous and endothermic process with increased randomness during the sorption. The isosteric heat of adsorption (Delta H-iso) was determined, suggesting the non -uniformity of PS surface and lateral interactions among ions sorbed. Desorption experiments performed with different chemicals have confirmed the reusability of PS for five cycles, without losing and even improving its sorption capacity. Results presented in this paper might help in appropriate design of purification systems using this type of lignocellulosic waste.

AB  - The most important source of renewable energy in Serbia represents biomass (60.3 %) with total potential of 3.405 million toe. Almost half of this amount (1.67 million toe) represents agricultural and industrial waste, with further negligible revalorization. Various investigations have demonstrated that agricultural byproducts have promising capacities to remove a variety of pollutants, which might increase the sustainability of their life cycle. This paper investigates the possible use of lignocellulosic waste material (LCW), originating from food industry as biosorbent for heavy metals, and later as a solid fuel. For this purpose we have used peach stone particles (PS) obtained by mechanical activation of this LCW as Cu(II) sorbent. The physical and chemical characteristics of PS reveal its complex structure which was confirmed by SEM, and FTIR analysis. PS behavior on pyrolysis process was studied by dynamic thermo gravimetric and derivate thermo gravimetric analysis. Results show that this lignocellulosic waste can be applied as sorbent and as a fuel. This approve that this agricultural waste can be a resource more than a waste and that it does not need to be disposed of in the costly and inefficient way, which is especially important in developing economies, like Serbian.
