The release of excessive phosphate (PO4 -3 ) into freshwater reservoirs may cause serious environmental concerns including eutrophication and water quality deterioration. In lieu, novel perovskite lanthanum ferrite/graphene ...

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 ...

Groundwater contamination from On-Site Sanitation (OSS) Systems poses a significant threat to the safety of millions of individuals living in peri-urban areas worldwide. In this context, a study was conducted in five ...

Thermochemical valorization technologies serve as valuable approach to reduce environmental impacts and recover energy. Poultry litter refers to the organic residue generated from chickens and turkey, including materials ...

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. ...

With the advent of 21st century, rapid industrialization and population growth has resulted in deterioration in quality of natural water reservoirs at global level, thus imposing high human health risks. Accordingly, the ...

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 ...

ABSTRACT Wastewater treatment by physico-chemical processes is highly cost effective, but it results in concentration of pollutant rather than removal only. Biological treatment, on other hand, converts pollutants into ...

ABSTRACT Many cities from Asian countries are facing serious problems in solid waste management. With increasing population, disposal problems are becoming more difficult in urban areas. Like many other countries due to ...

Generally, studies on solid waste (SW) have only been done in big cities all over the world. Like other parts of the globe, SW studies in small towns and cantonments have never been touched in the country yet. So, small ...
