Modern society has increasingly a diffusion of pollutants and emerging contaminants (e.g., different types chemicals endocrine disruptors in pharmaceuticals, pesticides, household cleaning, personal care products, etc.) that have detrimental effects on the environment (atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere anthroposphere) also generate diseases disorders people health. Environmental science requires efforts detection elimination manifold with appropriate product process technologies. This study aims to analyze paths treatment technologies investigate their evolution predict new directions promising technological trajectories support removal directed reach, whenever possible, sustainable development objectives. The work is mainly devoted wastewater A proposed model analyzes patents (proxy innovation technology) publications knowledge advances) quantify relative growth rate remove contaminants. Results reveal having an accelerated are (in decreasing order): biochar reverse osmosis physical-based technologies, coagulation, disinfection water treatments chemical-based anaerobic processes biological-based Other main such as carbon nanotubes advanced oxidation processes, seem be initial phase need learning by using further technology advances implemented effective cost-effective methods. results here show similar trends global market revenue These findings bring us information extend about for and/or microorganisms order decisions policymakers towards goals reducing environmental degradation health disorders.

Migration and remediation of typical contaminants in soil and groundwater: A state of art review

Land Degradation and Development, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 35(8), С. 2700 - 2715

Опубликована: Апрель 3, 2024

Abstract Soil and groundwater contamination has always been a global concern. Contaminants are migrated transformed in the soil environments, which turn pose potential environmental risks to humans. This paper describes four typical contaminants, including heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, microplastics, perfluorinated polyfluoroalkyl substances. Based on systematic summary of sources, hazards, migration behaviors these various existing remediation methods analyzed, advantages disadvantages different discussed. Finally, future research prospects described, significance study contaminant subsurface environment is emphasized. can help provide theoretical technical support for removal further improve rate actual sites.

Metal Oxides‐Based Nano/Microstructures for Photodegradation of Microplastics

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 7(6)

Опубликована: Март 31, 2023

Abstract The ubiquitous presence of microplastics in the environment has raised serious environmental and health concerns. These tiny plastic particles can enter food chain, posing a significant threat to human health. Researchers worldwide have focused their efforts on developing strategies mitigate microplastic pollution. This review focuses potential nano/microstructured metal oxide semiconductors as effective photocatalysts for degradation. is divided into two sections: static oxides dynamic micromachines based oxides. modifications made such TiO 2 , ZnO, bismuth oxyhalides (BiOX), NiO, Cu O/CuO, perovskite‐like Bi WO 6 Fe 3 O 4 etc., enhance degradation efficiency are thoroughly discussed reviewed. Additionally, photocatalytic pathways conversion C fuel other value‐added products also elaborated. current developments realm dynamic, self‐propelled, controlled micromotors photodegradation highlighted. concludes by proposing future perspectives challenges facilitate remediation water wastewater systems more effective, scalable, environmentally friendly manner. Overall, emphasizes photocatalysis using an eco‐friendly promising approach
