The interaction of pollutants with nanomaterials has attracted attention due to the extensive application of nanomaterials. In this study, the adsorption behavior of PFOS on nano-alumina with different shapes was investigated. First, the adsorption isotherms and kinetics of PFOS on alumina...

The contamination of soil with organic pollutants has been accelerated by agricultural and industrial development and poses a major threat to global ecosystems and human health. Various chemical and physical techniques have been developed to remediate soils contaminated with organic pollutants, but ...

Using the balanced panel data of 283 cities at the level of municipality or above in China from 2014 to 2017, this study adopts the system generalized method of moments (SGMM) and panel threshold model to study the relationship among city size, urban-rural income gap and environmental pollution....

To investigate the direct influence and mechanism of China's financial and manufacturing co-agglomeration on environmental pollution, we constructed a panel data regression model incorporating mediating and threshold effects with the panel data of 285 prefecture-level cities from 2009 to 2019. The ...

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an effective approach for waste activated sludge (WAS) disposal with substantial recovery of valuable substrates. Previous studies have extensively explored the correlations of common operational parameters with AD efficiency, but the impacts of intrinsic characteristics ...

This study analyzed an ozone pollution episode that occurred in the summer of 2020 in Zhengzhou, the provincial capital of Henan, China, and quantified the contribution of local and surrounding area anthropogenic emissions to this episode based on the Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry ...

Government management is the main tool to solve environmental pollution. Considering the unique fiscal decentralization institution in China, this paper investigates the effect of foreign direct investment (FDI) on urban haze pollution in China from the perspective of spatial econometrics. The...

The search for nature-based tools to enhance bioremediation is essential for the sustainable restoration of contaminated ecosystems. Humic acid (HA) is an important component of organic matter in soil and water, but its effect on the microbial degradation of organic pollutants remains unclear. In...

As eco-compensation is considered an effective economic instrument for controlling the industrial water pollution in transboundary basin, this study aims to explore a transboundary eco-compensation mechanism for Songhua River Basin that is one of the seven major drainage basins in China. Using a...

The screening technologies for characteristic pollutants and priority pollutants are mainly aimed at the river basin and water environment. However, there is still a lack of research from the perspective of the whole-process of the industry, and the screening technologies at the industrial level...
