Due to the accumulation of an enormous amount of plastic waste from municipal and
industrial sources in landfills, landfill leachate is becoming a significant reservoir of …

Plastics have become an essential part of life. When it enters the environment, it migrates
and breaks down to form smaller size fragments, which are called microplastics (MPs) …

Humic substances (HS) is one of the main organic components of biowaste with high
molecular weight and aromaticity. There is a growing concern that HS will hinder the …

This study proposed a novel and high-efficiency strategy, ie, freezing followed by low-
temperature thermal treatment, to significantly promote short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) …

Biogas production is the most important requirement for substituting fossil fuel in an eco-
friendly manner. Though several routes of renewable energy sources are available, biogas …

To realize energy self-sufficiency demand is a key component of carbon–neutral goal of

Modern wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) effectively remove microplastics (MPs) from
wastewater and unsurprisingly concentrate them in sludge. Hence through its beneficial use …

Water pollution is a severe health concern. Several studies have recently demonstrated the
efficacy of various approaches for treating wastewater from anthropogenic activities …

Microplastic fibers (MFs), as the most frequently detected microplastic shape in sewage
sludge, have posed emerging concern for sludge treatment and disposal. However, the …
