This review aims to provide an overview of the sources and reactions of persistent organic
pollutants (POPs) and surfactants in soil and sediments, the surfactant-enhanced …

An increase in energy demand leads to further exploration, transportation, and utilization of
petroleum, which creates severe soil contamination because of recurrent accidents and oil …

Surfactant based remediation technologies for organic contaminated soil and water
(groundwater or surface water) is of increasing importance recently. Surfactants are used to …

Zwitterionic, cationic, and anionic per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are identified
in aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) concentrates and AFFF-impacted sites. However, the …

The adsorption of surfactants from aqueous solutions in porous media is essential in
enhanced oil recovery (EOR) from oil reservoirs. Surfactant loss that is due to adsorption by …

Surfactants are amphiphilic molecules that reduce aqueous surface tension and increase
the solubility of hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs). Surfactant-amended remediation …

Zero valent iron (ZVI) nanoparticles have been studied extensively for degradation of
chlorinated solvents in the aqueous phase, and have been tested for in-situ remediation of …

Soils are complex and widely varying mixtures of organic matter and inorganic materials;
adsorption of surfactants to soils is therefore related to the soil composition. We first discuss …

Redox species have been explored extensively for catalysis, energy storage, and molecular
recognition. It is shown that nanostructured pseudocapacitive electrodes functionalized with …

Adsorption of three surfactants of different nature, Triton X-100 (TX100)(non-ionic), sodium
dodecylsulphate (SDS)(anionic) and octadecyltrimethylammonium bromide …
