Toxicity Mechanisms of Nanoplastics on Crop Growth, Interference of Phyllosphere Microbes, and Evidence for Foliar Penetration and Translocation

Environmental Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 58(2), P. 1010 - 1021

Published: Nov. 7, 2023

Despite the increasing prevalence of atmospheric nanoplastics (NPs), there remains limited research on their phytotoxicity, foliar absorption, and translocation in plants. In this study, we aimed to fill knowledge gap by investigating physiological effects tomato leaves exposed differently charged NPs absorption NPs. We found that positively caused more pronounced effects, including growth inhibition, increased antioxidant enzyme activity, altered gene expression metabolite composition even significantly changed structure phyllosphere microbial community. Also, exhibited differential translocation, with penetrating into dispersing uniformly within mesophyll cells. Additionally, absorbed were able translocate roots. These findings provide important insights interactions between crop plants demonstrate NPs' accumulation crops could negatively impact agricultural production food safety.

A Comprehensive Review of the Developments in Electrocoagulation for the Removal of Contaminants from Wastewater

Separations, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 10(6), P. 337 - 337

Published: May 30, 2023

Water organic pollution has become a major issue. A large number of people suffer from the decline in water quality. In addition, polluted can lead to health problems or excessive deaths. this regard, an increasingly important method for efficient treatment is electrocoagulation (EC), technology that encompasses small equipment size combined with simple operation compared other methods. The importance EC especially accentuated by recent decarbonization efforts due increasing availability renewable electricity systems. This review provides overview most developments as it pertains wastewater treatment. preferred over traditional methods its easy setup and low material costs. Moreover, very powerful destabilizing impurities charge neutralization then coagulating form flocs. shown high efficiency not only removing various pollutants but also emerging persistent contaminants, such microplastics. For these reasons, mechanisms related functional modalities are reviewed, well extensive details provided on diversity removed contaminants. Overall, significant new knowledge interest environmental chemical researchers particular engineers general purification.
