We synthesized 20 years of research to explain the interrelated processes that determine
soil and plant responses to biochar. The properties of biochar and its effects within …

Plastic particles of less than 5 mm size, referred as microplastics, have recently become a
major environmental issue. While microplastics are well known in marine and lake systems …

Identifying and understanding the potential sources delivering microplastics into the urban
water environment is imperative for microplastic pollution control. However, how …

Microplastics (MPs) are creating an emerging threat on the soil ecosystems and are of great
global concern. However, the distribution in soil-plant system, as well as the phytotoxicity …

According to extensive in situ investigations, the microplastics (MPs) determined in current
wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are mostly aged, with roughened surfaces and varied …

It is widely known that microplastics are present everywhere and they pose certain risks to
the ecosystem and humans which are partly attributed to the leaching of additives and …

Land application of sewage sludge is increasingly used as an alternative to landfilling and
incineration owing to a considerable content of carbon and essential plant nutrients in …

With the growing emphasis on environmental protection, the ways of sewage sludge
treatment are changing. In this review, we analyse different methods of sewage sludge …

Microplastic pollution is becoming a global challenge due to its long-term accumulation in
the environment, causing adverse effects on human health and the ecosystem. Sludge …

Microplastics, as a group of emerging contaminants, are widely present in environmental
media and have the potential to endanger the ecological environment and human health …
