A group from Extended Energy Big Data and Strategy Research Center (EEBD&SRC), Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) addressed the interprovincial carbon transfer in China along thermal coal trade flow and coal power transmission flow with the Chinese provinces as spatial nodes based on the GIS-LCA methodology proposed by the group (J. Clean Prod., 2021, 323, 129113). The work was published in Journal of Cleaner Production on February 3, 2022.
China has committed to reach its peak carbon emissions as soon as possible before 2030, and to strive to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Fully assessing the spatial carbon transfer associated with energy production and consumption activiti...

A research team led by WANG Qinggang from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), has developed a new "DE-RE polymerization" chemical upcycling strategy. This chemical upgrading process of Polylactic acid (PLA), waste to new PLA material has been successfully achieved in a "polymer to polymer" pathway.

A research team based in Qingdao, China has developed a low-cost metagenome sequencing technique that enables high-resolution revelation of the full 'landscape' of organisms in a microbiome, even from highly contaminated, very degraded or low-biomass samples.
The technique is described in a paper that appeared in the journal Genome Biology.

Lithium-ion batteries are relatively safe, long-lasting, fast charging and better for the environment than non-rechargeable batteries — right? Not quite. The ion exchange mechanism that allows for power storage uses rare earth elements, such as nickel and cobalt. Researchers have long been on the hunt for alternative batteries that boast all the benefits of lithium-ion versions but include ecological and economic advantages. Now, a team is closing in on an improved approach.
Lithium-ion batteries are relatively safe, long-lasting, fast charging and better for the environment than non-rechargeable batteries–right? Not quite. The rocking-chair mechanism that allows for commercial power storage generally uses rare ...

Researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) revealed the transcriptional regulation mechanism of pectin biosynthesis.
Pectin is a complex cell wall polysaccharide. It plays an important role in modulating cell adhesion, cell morphogenesis and growth.
Although several genes involved in pectin biosynthesis have been identified, the transcriptional regulato...
