The newest results concerning the biological activity and environmental fate of anionic
surfactants are collected and critically evaluated. The chemical and physicochemical …

Little is known about the environmental fate of adjuvants after application on the agricultural
land. Adjuvants constitute a broad range of substances, of which solvents and surfactants …

Factors affecting sorption of organic pollutants by natural sorbents (soils, sediments, clays,
humic materials, and dissolved organic matters) and sorption coefficients for selected …

A surfactant-aided soil washing mechanism is proposed in this study by examining nine
common organic contaminants, which were divided into two groups, hydrophobic …

Our world is widely contaminated with damaging chemicals, and companies create
thousands of new, potentially dangerous chemicals each year. Due to the difficulty and …

In this study, perlite was employed as a low-cost source of Si and Al in the synthesis of
sodalite zeolite by means of the hydrothermal synthesis method. The structural …

Surfactant-modified montmorillonites (MMT) were prepared using trimethyloctylammonium
bromide (TMOAB) and employed as a nanosized adsorbent to remove diazinon from …

The study of the effect of cosolvents on the micellization of ionic surfactants is relevant in
different industrial applications. In this article, we studied the effects of binary aqueous …
