Microplastics (MPs) and nano-plastics (NPs) pollution has become a challenge for terrestrial ecosystems. An important vector for the transport of microplastics (MPs) into agricultural soils is organic fertilizers, which ...

Chromium is one of the most typical heavy metal pollutants that is genotoxic, carcinogenic and accumulates in plant and animal bodies. The use of emerging materials for efficient removal of chromium is in high demand. ...

Synthesis and optimization of nano sorbents for lead (Pb) removal from water is challenging. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was decorated with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in various weight ratios (20%­70%). ...

Water demand is increasing exponentially worldwide due to rapid urbanization and industrialization, resulting in a scarcity of clean water sources. The direct discharge of wastewater into water bodies due to the lack of ...

In recent years, the removal and recovery of phosphate (PO4 3−) from freshwater reservoirs using carbonaceous adsorbents has received much attention to address eutrophication issues and plant phosphate requirements. ...

Even though the majority of Pakistan is being served by an onsite sanitation system, the fecal sludge management service chain is entirely nonexistent. According to the United Nations, to achieve universal access to safe ...

Renewable energy seems to be the only way towards a sustainable future and solves two major global issues, especially, for the developing countries that are: depletion of fossil fuels due to overuse and abrupt climate ...

Emerging contaminants are released into the water bodies from various industrial and agricultural, trade and commerce activities and from use of personal care products in our daily lives. The discharge of these chemicals ...

As we all are familiar with the current energy crises which is being faced by people all over the world. With the drastic increase in population energy demand has sky rocketed as well. So some factors which have increased ...
