Javokhir Eraliev
Dong-A University, South Korea

Javokhir Eraliev, affiliated with Dong-A University in South Korea, is a researcher in Environmental Science whose documented scholarly output includes research addressing resource recovery, biochar development, phosphate recovery, and sustainable soil amendment. His Scopus record currently lists one document, six citations, and an h-index of one. [2]

Abstract

Javokhir Eraliev’s documented research profile is centered on environmental sustainability and the conversion of waste-derived materials into useful resources. His reported publication examines the valorization of waste mussel shells and spent coffee grounds into calcium-rich biochar for phosphate recovery and potential soil amendment. Published in Environmental Technology & Innovation in November 2025, the study connects waste utilization, nutrient recovery, engineered biochar, and sustainable environmental management. [1]

Keywords

Environmental Science; biochar; waste valorization; phosphate recovery; soil amendment; mussel shells; spent coffee grounds; resource recovery; sustainable materials.

Introduction

Research on circular resource use increasingly investigates how organic and mineral waste streams can be transformed into materials with environmental applications. Eraliev’s documented work addresses this theme through a combined approach using mussel-shell and coffee-ground wastes. The research is relevant to environmental engineering and sustainable resource management because it considers both waste reduction and recovery of phosphorus, an important nutrient in agricultural systems. [1]

Research Profile

The available publication record identifies Eraliev’s research activity with Environmental Science and sustainable material applications. The principal documented study investigates calcium-rich biochar produced from two waste resources and its application to phosphate recovery for soil amendment. This indicates an interdisciplinary research direction involving waste valorization, material preparation, nutrient management, and environmental sustainability. [2]

Research Contributions

The documented contribution combines two otherwise distinct waste streams—mussel shells and spent coffee grounds—to develop a calcium-rich biochar. The study further evaluates this material in the context of phosphate recovery and soil amendment. Such integration provides a research pathway linking waste-derived material production with nutrient-resource management. [1]

Publications

  • Valorization of waste mussel shells and spent coffee grounds into calcium-rich biochar for sustainable phosphate recovery for soil amendment. Environmental Technology & Innovation, November 2025. [1]

Research Impact

The available Scopus information records one scholarly document, six citations, and an h-index of one. [2] These indicators describe the current indexed record and should be interpreted in relation to the publication’s relatively recent date. The research topic also has potential relevance to circular-economy approaches by investigating the conversion of waste materials into functional resources.

Award Suitability

For an academic recognition framework, the available evidence provides identifiable research activity, a peer-reviewed journal publication, a defined Environmental Science specialization, and measurable citation indicators. The publication’s focus on waste valorization and phosphate recovery provides a concrete basis for examining its relevance to sustainable environmental research. Award consideration should be based on the applicable evaluation criteria and independently verified scholarly records. [1] [2]

Conclusion

Javokhir Eraliev’s documented research profile reflects an environmental research direction focused on converting waste-derived materials into resources for phosphate recovery and soil applications. His available scholarly record includes a 2025 publication in Environmental Technology & Innovation, supported by a corresponding DOI and Scopus author record. [1] [2]
