Nuclear pollution caused by nuclear power plant accident has great influence on local living environment and forest development. How to effectively solve the problems has become an important subject for environmental scientists and forest experts. This paper takes the forest pollution by nuclear in ...

Lead and zinc ions in water are very unfriendly to humans and the environment. In this experiment, an environmental friendly and hydroxyl-rich biomass materials loofah (LG) was modified by epichlorohydrin and iminodiacetic acid (IDA). IDA-LG was used to remove Pb2+ and Zn2+ as model pollutants....

The toxic effects of micro(nano)plastics are long-standing, flourishing and fadeless as a research topic because of its' underlying threats to the ecology and human health. Nevertheless, in most of the existing studies, some model organisms are exposed to micro(nano)plastics at a high concentration ...

Environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs) in atmospheric fine particulate matters (PM_2.5) possess high bioactivity and result in severe health problems. The facile transformation of aromatic pollutants into EPFRs on montmorillonite (MMT), an important solid component in PM_2.5, is an...

Background: Prolonged sleep latency is associated with far-reaching public health consequences. Although evidence about the effect of air pollution on sleep problem has been shown, the effect on sleep latency remained unknown. The study aimed to analyze the association between long-term exposure to ...

Aim: To investigate the effect of temperature, humidity and the concentration of ambient air pollution on the hospitalization of AECOPD. Method: Hospitalization record was obtained from Shenyang Medical Insurance Bureau, concluding patient's age, gender, income hospital time, outcome hospital;...

The large-scale development of animal husbandry and the wide agricultural application of livestock manure lead to more and more serious co-pollution of heavy metals and antibiotics in soil. In this study, two common feed additives, copper (Cu) and sulfadiazine (SDZ), were selected as target ...

The efficiency of sewage collection and treatment directly affects the water safety and water environment under the combined drainage system. It is an important factor to be evaluated in the construction of a sponge city. Taking Qianan City as an example, a monitoring network consisting'Pollution...

In this paper, Ag/Zn-MIP-TiO₂ was prepared by sol-gel method, and the imprinted molecule was ethyl p-hydroxybenzoate. To study the properties of the Ag/Zn-MIP-TiO₂ on the photocatalytic activity, these factors were investigated: the effects of the dosage of Ag and Zn, the amount of imprinted...

The pyrolysis of excess sludge derived from wastewater treatment plants to prepare biochar can achieve the mass-reduction and harmlessness of solid waste, but it is also necessary to further explore the application prospect of these biochars as a resource for wastewater treatment . In this study,...
