With accelerating urbanization, building sector has been becoming more important source of China’s total carbon emission. In this paper, we try to calculate the life-cycle carbon emission, analyze influencing factors of carbon emission, and assess the delinking index of carbon emission in China’...
Other articles where decomposition is discussed: soap and detergent: Raw materials: …and, because the foam retards biological degradation of organic material in sewage, it caused problems in sewage-water regeneration systems. In countries where sewage w
Super P carbon (Timcal) was ball milled with Li2CO3with a mass ratio of 1:1. A Li2CO3-Super P (1:1) composite electrode was prepared to construct a cell with 1 M lithium bis(trifluoromethane-sulphonyl)imide (LiTFSI)—tetraglyme electrolyte as stated in Methods and the cells were cha...
Bacteria and fungi decompose most plant detritus (litter) in terrestrial ecosystems (Swift et al., 1979), and this process is a key step in the carbon cycle, as it mediates the balance of carbon being respired as CO2 into the atmosphere or stored in the soil (Adair et al., 2008). ...

Changes in carbon and nitrogen content during decomposition of three macrophytes in freshwater and marine environments This study suggests that initial differences in nutritional value of aquatic macrophytes diminish during decomposition and that the ultimate C : N ratio at...

OMD plays an important role in the globalcarbon cycle, mineralization, and nutrient cycling.Johnston (1962)suggested that many species ofPenicilliumandAspergillusoccurring in the soil need to be considered for rapid breakdown ofcellulose decompo...
Biological processes are thought to be the primary cause of decomposition of organic matter in terrestrial ecosystems, with abiotic processes such as degradation by UV-B radiation playing a minor role. Not so, according to a study in the semi-arid Patago

Carbon and nutrients from carrion biomass can be consumed by invertebrate and vertebrate scavengers, enter the atmosphere as gas, or be metabolized by microbes in situ or via leachate...
