Effects of Stepwise Microwave Synergistic Process Water Recirculation During Hydrothermal Carbonization on Properties of Wheat Straw

In this study, wheat straw (WS) was treated using two-step synergistic techniques, which were process water recirculation (PWR) during hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) and microwave energy activation (MEA).The physicochemical properties of solid and liquid products during the process of HTC PWR were characterized.The temperature-rising properties,

The molecular mechanism on suppression of climacteric fruit ripening with postharvest wax coating treatment via transcriptome

Wax coating is an important means to maintain fruit quality and extend fruit shelf life, especially for climacteric fruits, such as apples (Malus domestica).Here, we found that wax coating could inhibit ethylene production, chlorophyll degradation, twizzlers pull and peel fruit punch and carotenoid synthesis, but the molecular mechanism remains unc
