In recent years, the application of green rusts (GRs) for water purification has received significant attention, but its full understanding has not been well achieved. Then, the comprehension about the synthesis and characteristics of GRs can highly favor their decontamination performances for the...

The production of biochar from sewage sludge pyrolysis is a promising approach to transform the waste resultant from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to a potential adsorbent. The current review provides an up-to-date review regarding important aspects of sewage sludge pyrolysis, highlighting...

The bioremediation of emerging pollutants in wastewater via algal biotechnology has been emerging as a cost-effective and low-energy input technological solution. However, the algal bioremediation technology is still not fully developed at a commercial level. The development of different...

Water pollution is one of the main manifestations of environmental pollution. Scientific evaluation of the value loss of water environment pollution is the basis for the formulation of water environment policy. The current method of quantifying water pollution loss is economic, which makes better...

As persulfate activator, Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and derivatives are widely concerned in degradation of emerging environmental pollutants by advanced oxygen technology dominated by sulfate radical () (SR-AOPs). However, the poor stability and low catalytic efficiency limit the performance...

It is meaningful to study how China can maintain the sustainable utilization of natural resources and the continuous improvement of environmental conditions while ensuring the stable development of the economy and society. In this study, a new indices system was proposed for the analysis of nexus...

Wastewater is contaminated water that must be treated before it may be transferred into other rivers and lakes in order to prevent further groundwater pollution. Over the last decade, research has been conducted on a wide variety of contaminants, but the emerging contaminants are those caused...

In this study, newly developed iron-based chitosan flocculants were applied to remove the black-odor water using response surface method analysis, as a function of dosage, temperature and stirring time. Box-Behnken design was employed to study the removal effects of target pollutants from the...

In this study, three kinds of modified basalt fibre (MBF) were used as biofilm carrier to treat wastewater, mainly for the removal of organic matter and nutrient pollutants, which was evaluated the feasibility of modification by pollutants removal performance. Polydopamine modified basalt fibre...

A new approach of solvent-assisted cavitation process was proposed for degradation of organic pollutants. The process envisages the use of suitable solvent as an additive, (1-5% v/V), in the conventional cavitation process to enhance the pollutant removal efficiency. A proof of concept was provided ...
