Meteorological and the regional transmission have a great impact on local pollution. It is of great significance to study the meteorological and the regional transmission of pollutants in different areas. The Baoji City experienced a severe haze event from December29 th, 2018 to January 8 th, 2019. ...

The tannery industry is an integral part of economic development in many developing countries, and the environmental pollution caused by the tannery industry cannot be ignored. In this study, soil and groundwater samples at different depths were collected from an abandoned tannery to investigate...

The existence of heavy metals and emerging organic contaminants in wastewater produces serious toxic residues to the environment. Developing cheap and efficient materials to remove these persistent pollutants is crucial. Iron-based materials are cost-effective and environmentally friendly...

Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common congenital malformations in humans. Inconsistent results emerged in the existed studies on associations between air pollution and congenital heart disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of gestational...

While several studies have demonstrated the negative impacts of environmental pollution on population health, in general, few studies have examined the potential differential effects on the physical health of middle-aged and older populations, i.e., 45 years and older. Given the twin concerns of ...

The willingness of migrating due to air pollution is widespread in China. However, there is a lack of direct evidence and discussion regarding whether this willingness has been translated into action. In this study, PM2.5 concentrations were used to represent air pollution in each city and were...

Slow and controlled release fertilizer is a new type of fertilizer that can slow down or control the release of nutrients. It has the advantages of improving fertilizer utilization rate, increasing crop yields, and reducing environmental pollution. This article introduced the concept and types of...

The emission factor (EF) is a parameter used to assess vehicle emissions. Many studies have reported EFs for vehicles in driving conditions. However, the idling emissions should not be neglected in characterizing actual vehicle emissions in congested large cities, where idling is very common on the ...

Electricity generation may create high levels of pollution, but its consumption is completely clean. Long-distance electricity transfers make the allocation of environmental externalities caused by electricity generation unfair at the regional level. This paper provides a generalized approach that...

Two sets of hybrid constructed wetlands (HCWs) with the first-stage aeration were used to treat actual domestic sewage in this paper, where the effects of three important factors of aeration mode, hydraulic loading rates (HLR), and aeration volume on the removal of pollutants in both HCWs were...
