Food pollution is the presence of harmful things which are not naturally found in food. Food gets polluted in various stages starting from cultivation, harvesting, storage processing, cooking, and serving. Food pollution is a global challenge that endangers humanity. This review is an attempt to...

For traditional Fenton processes, the quenching behavior of radical contenders (e.g., most aliphatic hydrocarbons) on hydroxyl radicals (.OH) usually hinders the removal of target refractory pollutants (aromatic/heterocyclic hydrocarbons) in chemical industrial wastewater, leading to excess energy...

Biochar is a carbon-rich product prepared from biomass raw materials. Biochar can effectively adsorb organic pollutants in water due to its advantages of large specific surface area, porous structure and abundant functional groups. Through functional modification, biochar can be used as a...

Sustainable development is a big global challenge for the 21st century. In recent years, a class of emerging contaminants known as microplastics (MPs) has been identified as a significant pollutant with the potential to harm ecosystems. These small plastic particles have been found in every...

In this work, TiO₂-based nanocomposites containing polyaniline (PANI), poly(1-naphthylamine) (PNA), and polyindole (PIN) were synthesized by effective and simple routes and posteriorly employed as photocatalysts and supercapacitors. Characterization techniques such as XRD, FTIR, FESEM, UV, and PL...

The development of photocatalysts has an influential role in solving the environmental pollution crisis. Herein, the two different noble metals of silver (Ag)/ruthenium (Ru) were separately decorated on cadmium sulfide (CdS) photocatalysts by novel chemical methods. Characterization tests confirmed ...

Mixed-vegetation planting patterns are commonly seen in urban areas for specific reasons like aesthetic, cooling, and particle deposition effects of the vegetation. However, they may have a negative impact on human health by worsening the air quality inside the street canyon due to the decreased...

The growing global concern about human exposure to microplastics necessitates research into their occurrence, fate, and effects. Recent advancements in analytical methods have fostered research and improved understanding of microplastics in a variety of human tissue and biological samples,...

The recent release of the new European Commission reference document on the Best Available Techniques (BAT) for waste incineration has set ambitious targets for the control of the emission of pollutants. However, an improved performance of the existing flue gas treatment systems in waste-to-energy...
