AB  - he contamination of the water bodies by diesel oil (DO) and its water-soluble fraction (WSF) represents one of the most challenging tasks in the management of polluted water streams. This paper contains data related to the synthesis and characteristics of the plum stone biochar material (PmS-B), which was made from waste plum stones (PmS), along with its possible application in the sorption of the WSF of DO from contaminated water. Techniques applied in sample characterisation and comparisons were: Elemental Organic Analysis (EOA), Scanning Electron Microscopy−Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), pH (pHsus) and point of zero charge (pHpzc). In order to increase the overall efficiency of the removal process, sorption and bioremediation were subsequently combined. Firstly, PmS-B was used as a sorbent of WSF, and then the remaining solution was additionally treated with a specific consortium of microorganisms. After the first treatment phase, the initial concentration of diesel WSF was reduced by more than 90%, where most of the aromatic components of DO were removed by sorption. The sorption equilibrium results were best fitted by the Sips isotherm model, where the maximum sorption capacity was found to be 40.72 mg/g. The rest of the hydrocarbon components that remained in the solution were further subjected to the biodegradation process by a consortium of microorganisms. Microbial degradation lasted 19 days and reduced the total diesel WSF concentration to 0.46 mg/L. In order to confirm the non-toxicity of the water sample after this two-stage treatment, eco-toxicity tests based on a microbial biosensor (Aliivibrio fischeri) were applied, confirming the high efficiency of the proposed method.

AB  - The mutual interaction of metal ions (lead, zinc and copper) on removal efficiency in binary and
ternary systems, by biosorbent based on alkali treated apricot shells (Prunus armeniaca L.) was
examined. The evaluation was done in batch system at two metals concentrations: 0.2 and 0.5mmol/
dm3. Tested biosorbent exhibited preferential uptake of lead in a multimetal systems. It is evident that mutual inhibition exists in all multimetal systems, but systems containing lead ex-hibited extreme inhibition toward copper and zinc ions. Process of sorption depends not only on specific chemistry of each metal, their affinity toward binding sites and the type of metal binding onto biosorbent, but also on sorbent chemical and morphological characteristics. In multimetal systems, tested sorbent showed preferential sorption orders: Pb (II)>Cu (II)>Zn (II).

AB  - The aim of this paper was to study using an active consortium of zymogenic microorganisms for ex
situ biodegradation of a petroleum hydrocarbon, along with simultaneous monitoring of the
humification process.
In this study, the biopile (B) and control biopile (CB) for ex situ bioremediation consisted of soil
polluted with petroleum and its derivatives. The initial level of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) in
the B and CB was 26 g kg-1. At the end of the study, TPH were reduced to 4 g kg-1 in B, but only to
24 g kg-1 in the CB. The starting material contained 2.79% of humic acids (HAs) while at the end of
study, HAs in the B had increased to 3.88%, in contrast, in CB, only a very small increase of HAs, to
2.90% was noted. Also, the quality of humification was monitored by determining parameters such
as HAs/FAs (the humic acid/fulvic acid ratio) and HI (CHAs/TOC).
The current results show undoubtedly that humification occurred during biodegradation of
petroleum hydrocarbon.

AB  - Water contaminated with diesel oil represents one of the greatest challenges in waste water
management. Water soluble fraction (WSF) is of particular interest because of its toxicity to
aquatic organisms and discharge regulations set by environmental authorities. Biochar
sorbents have attracted great attention, due to their low cost origin and advantageous
properties as well as high sorption capacities in sorption processes. In this study, we have
reported the synthesis and characteristics of novel biochar sorbent made from waste
lignocellulosic biomass (peach stones (PS)) and evaluated its possible application in removal
of diesel WSF from synthetic water. Physiochemical characteristics of the biochar sample
were analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET)
method, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), along with the elemental
analysis. Characterisation of PS biochar (PS-B) indicated high multi porous surface area
(159.1 m2 g
-1
) with the average pore diameter 2.7 nm. FTIR results indicated higher presence
of aromatic compounds in PS-B as compared to PS. The sorption experiments performed in
a batch system using PS-B resulted in more than 95 % removal of diesel WSF, reaching
equilibrium after 5 h. Equilibrium data were well fitted by Freundlich isotherm, while the
pseudo-second order equation fitted well the kinetic data, indicating chemisorption
involving valency forces through the sharing/exchange of electrons between the sorbent and
PS-B. Applications of ecotoxicology tests based on a microbial biosensor (Aliivibrio fischeri)
have shown a significant toxicity reduction of water sample after the treatment with biochar
AB  - Prečišćavanje voda zagađenih dizelom predstavlja jedan od glavnih izazova u tretmanu otpadnih voda. Frakcija rastvorna u vodi (engl. water soluble fraction, WSF) je naročito važna, obzirom na njenu direktnu toksičnost po vodene organizme, kao i na granične vrednosti postavljene zakonskom regulativom. Sorbenti na bazi biočađi privlače značajnu pažnju istraživača, zbog na njihove ekonomske isplativosti i svojstva koja doprinose velikim sorpcionim kapacitetima. U ovom radu prikazane su sinteza i karakterizacija biočađi dobijene od otpadnog lignoceluloznoog materijala koštice breskve, i ispitana je moguća primena ovog materijala kao sorbenta u uklanjanju rastvorne frakcije dizela iz kontaminiranih voda. Fizičkohemijske karakteristike biočađi analizirane su primenom skenirajuće elektronske mikroskopije (SEM) i infracrvene spektroskopije sa Furijeovom (Fourier) transformacijom (FTIR) zajedno sa elementarnom organskom analizom dok je specifična površina određena primenom BET (Brunauer – Emmett – Teller) metode. 
Karakterizacija biočađi koštice breskve pokazala je multiporoznu strukturu velike specifične površine (159.1 m2 g-1) sa prosečnom veličinom pora 2.7 nm. Rezultati FTIR analize su ukazali na veće prisustvo aromatičnih jedinjenja u biočađi u odnosu na nativni uzorak. Sorpcioni eksperimenti izvedeni u šaržnom sistemu pokazali su da je procenat uklanjanja rastvorene frakcije dizela veći od 95 % pri inicijalnoj koncentraciji od 20 mg dm-3 i sadržaju biočađi od 1.5 g dm-3 , uz postizanje ravnoteže nakon 5 h. Ravnotežni podaci su najbolje opisani Frojndlihovom izotermom, dok je jednačina kinetike pseudo-drugog reda najbolje opisala kinetičke podatke, ukazujući na proces hemisorpcije koji uključuje valentne sile kroz izmenu/delenje elektrona između sorbata i biočađi. Ekotoksikološki testovi su pokazali smanjenje ekotoksičnosti na Aliivibrio fischeri nakon tretmana voda uzorkom biočađi.

Sorpcioni eksperimenti izvedeni u šaržnom sistemu pokazali su da je procenat uklanjanja rastvorene frakcije dizela veći od 95 % pri inicijalnoj koncentraciji od 20 mg dm-3 i sadržaju biočađi od 1.5 g dm-3 , uz postizanje ravnoteže nakon 5 h. Ravnotežni podaci su najbolje opisani Frojndlihovom izotermom, dok je jednačina kinetike pseudo-drugog reda najbolje opisala kinetičke podatke, ukazujući na proces hemisorpcije koji uključuje valentne sile kroz izmenu/delenje elektrona između sorbata i biočađi. Ekotoksikološki testovi su pokazali smanjenje ekotoksičnosti na Aliivibrio fischeri nakon tretmana voda uzorkom biočađi.",

AB  - This paper focuses on lignocellulosic waste biomass originating from food industry, which should find its further application in order to fulfill demands of circular economy. Therefore, here are presented some of the chemical and physical properties that affect combustion process, as well as thermochemical reaction kinetics for lignocellulosic biomass wastes. The biomass investigated was peach stone particles originating from food industry. The results have showed that peach stones can be characterized as good energy alternative renewable material, with properties that allow its safe thermochemical conversion. Kinetic analysis of this biomass was performed using Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) with a simple reaction model applied, namely n-th order reaction model. The obtained results have confirmed the complex nature of this material and the need for further modelling.
