Emerging contaminants (ECs) are a diverse group of unregulated pollutants increasingly present in the environment. These contaminants, including pharmaceuticals, personal care products, endocrine disruptors, and industrial chemicals, can enter environment through various pathways persist, accumulating food chain posing risks to ecosystems human health. This comprehensive review examines chemical characteristics, sources, varieties ECs. It critically evaluates current understanding their environmental health impacts, highlighting recent advancements challenges detection analysis. The also assesses existing regulations policies, identifying shortcomings proposing potential enhancements. ECs pose significant wildlife by disrupting animal hormones, causing genetic alterations that diminish diversity resilience, altering soil nutrient dynamics physical Furthermore, increasing health, hormonal disruptions, antibiotic resistance, disruption, neurological effects, carcinogenic other long-term impacts. To address these critical issues, offers recommendations for future research, emphasizing areas requiring further investigation comprehend full implications contaminants. suggests increased funding support development advanced technologies, establishment standardized methods, adoption precautionary regulations, enhanced public awareness education, cross-sectoral collaboration, integration scientific research into policy-making. By implementing solutions, we improve our ability detect, monitor, manage ECs, reducing risks.

Increasing the radical yield and reducing energy consumption would enhance sustainability competitiveness of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for micropollutant degradation in water. We herein report a novel AOP coupling far-UVC radiation at 222 nm with chlorinated cyanurates (termed UV222/Cl-cyanurates AOP) generation abatement experimentally determined concentrations HO•, Cl•, ClO• deionized water swimming pool The are 10–27 times 4–13 times, respectively, higher than those UV254/Cl-cyanurates well-documented UV254/chlorine under comparable conditions (e.g., same UV fluence oxidant dosing). molar absorption coefficients innate quantum yields two chlorine species Cl-cyanurates incorporated these parameters into kinetic model. model enables accurate prediction photodecay rates as well pH impact on AOP. predicted pseudo-first-order rate constants 25 micropollutants demonstrated that many can be degraded by >80% low mJ cm–2. This work advances fundamental photochemistry offers highly effective engineering tool combating where suitable to use.

Hydrogel-based materials as antibacterial agents and super adsorbents for the remediation of emerging pollutants: A comprehensive review

Emerging contaminants, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 10(3), С. 100336 - 100336

Опубликована: Март 29, 2024

Hydrogels have various potential applications due to their unique characteristics and recently, hydrogels been utilized as adsorbents in wastewater treatment because of ability remove contaminants from water. Constructing strong with high adsorption capabilities is crucial for effective treatment. Scientists researchers are working improve the properties by incorporating inorganic elements into polymer networks, which further reduces costs well simplifies preparation. Natural polymers like starch alginate widespread economic biological advantages, such biodegradability, biocompatibility, reduced toxicity, environmental friendliness, low cost. The pollutants onto use antimicrobial agents has garnered significant attention. This review paper summarizes latest studies on using endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), persistent organic (POPs), other emerging water environments along agents. In first step, different classes characterization techniques discussed. Next elaborated understand how these can be a candidate activities. While discussing application hydrogels, isothermal, kinetics thermodynamics models discussed highlight mechanism nature forces involved pollutants. Further simulations DFT MD get more holistic understanding hydrogels. A limited number Monte Carlo computational fluid dynamics (CFD) so it important explore variety methods gain comprehensive process

Опубликована: Март 22, 2024

Increasing radical yields to reduce UV fluence requirement for achieving targeted removal of micropollutants in water would make UV-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) less energy demanding the context United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and carbon neutrality. We herein demonstrate that, by switching radiation source from conventional low-pressure at 254 nm (UV254) emerging Far-UVC 222 (UV222), fluence-based concentration HO• UV/peroxydisulfate (UV/PDS) AOP increases 6.40, 2.89, 6.00 times deionized water, tap surface respectively, with SO4•– also 5.06, 5.81, 55.47 times, respectively. The enhancement generation is confirmed using a kinetic model. pseudo-first-order degradation rate constants 16 UV222/PDS are predicted be 1.94–13.71 higher than those UV254/PDS AOP. Among tested matrix components, chloride nitrate decrease but increase Compared AOP, decreases formation potentials carbonaceous disinfection byproducts (DBPs) nitrogenous DBPs.
