With the massive development of industrialization, multiple ecological contaminants in gaseous, liquid, and solid forms are vented into habitats, which is currently at the forefront of worldwide attention. Because of the possible damage to public health and eco-diversity, high-efficiency clearance...

Biochar has been of considerable importance for various environmental applications in recent years. It has exhibited substantial advantages like favourable structural and surface properties, easy process of preparation and widely available feedstocks. These set of exceptional properties make it an...

Globally estrogenic pollutants are a cause of concern in wastewaters and water bodies because of their high endocrine disrupting activity leading to extremely negative impacts on humans and other organisms even at very low environmental concentrations. Bioremediation of estrogens has been studied...

Among the several methods to determine anthropogenic pollutants in the soil, magnetic susceptibility measurements have proven to be useful for rapid and effective diagnosis of magnetic particles and overall screening of pollution. Magnetic particles and other heavy metals accumulated in the topsoil ...

The growing prevalence of new toxins in the environment continues to cause widespread concerns. Pharmaceuticals, organic pollutants, heavy metal ions, endocrine-disrupting substances, microorganisms, and others are examples of persistent organic chemicals whose effects are unknown because they have ...

In the present paper, groundnut samples were dried under natural convection greenhouse drying (NCGHD), forced convection greenhouse drying (FCGHD), and indoor forced convection hot air drying (IFCHAD) modes in the climatic conditions of Rohtak, India (28°54' N 76°34'E). Samples of groundnut were...

Calcium peroxide (CaO₂) has been proven to oxidize various organic pollutants when they exist as a single class of compounds. However, there is a lack of research on the potential of unactivated CaO₂ to treat mixed chlorinated organic pollutants in soils. This study examined the potential of CaO₂...

Environmental pollution and climate change are requiring new methods to clean pollutants and produce sustainable energy. Aerogels and metal organic frameworks are emerging as advanced porous materials with higher functionality, high surface area, high porosity and flexible chemistry. Aerogels are...

Microplastics (MPs) released from both primary and secondary sources affect the functioning of aquatic system. These MPs and components leached, can interact with aquatic organisms of all trophic levels, including the primary producers, such as microalgae. Considering the ecological value of...
