Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are distributed worldwide due to long-term
anthropogenic pollution sources. PAHs are recalcitrant and highly persistent in the …

Aquatic ecosystems cover more than two-thirds of the Earth's surface and play a vital role in
maintaining a stable global temperature and providing various benefits to an expanding …

Biomass pyrolysis is the anoxic thermal conversion of biomass into a carbon rich, porous
solid, often called biochar. This could be a better waste management alternative for …

Worldwide pollution of almost all natural media by toxic compounds is a major public health
issue requiring the development of advanced remediation techniques such as sediment …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) tend to accumulate in the sediment due to their
high hydrophobicity. Despite PAHs have been the subject of several reviews, PAH sorption …

Concern exists regarding potential health impacts associated with contaminants of emerging
concern (CECs) that adsorb to microplastics (MPs). Previous studies have examined MPs as …

This study provides important data on the distribution, sources and ecological risks of
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), in surface waters and sediments collected from …

Porous polydivinylbenzene microspheres with high specific surface area were prepared by
distillation–precipitation polymerization, and were used as the coating material in …

The major cause of soil degradation (contamination, erosion, compaction) is closely linked
to agriculture, ie, unsustainable agriculture practices, which are reflected in the depletion of …

Lake sediment is a natural sink for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAH
sedimentation characteristics and their impact factors of Chinese lakes have mainly been …
