Abstract Plastics have become an integral component in agricultural production as mulch films, nets, storage bins and many other applications, but their widespread use has led to the accumulation of large quantities soils. Rational reduction, collection, reuse, innovative recycling are key measures curb plastic pollution from agriculture. that cannot be collected after must biodegradable environmentally benign manner. Harmful additives replaced with safer alternatives reduce toxicity burdens included ongoing negotiations surrounding United Nations Treaty. Although full substitution plastics is currently not possible without increasing overall environmental footprint jeopardizing food security, smaller impacts should used endorsed within a clear socio-economic framework. Better monitoring reporting, technical innovation, education training, social economic incentives imperative promote more sustainable

Airborne contaminants pose significant environmental and health challenges. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has emerged as a leading photocatalyst in the degradation of air compared to other photocatalysts due its inherent inertness, cost-effectiveness, photostability. To assess effectiveness, laboratory examinations are frequently employed measure photocatalytic rate TiO2. However, this approach involves time-consuming requirements, labor-intensive tasks, high costs. In literature, ensemble or standalone models commonly used for assessing performance TiO2 water contaminants. Nonetheless, application metaheuristic hybrid potential be more effective predictive accuracy efficiency. Accordingly, research utilized machine learning (ML) algorithms estimate photo-degradation constants organic pollutants using nanoparticles exposure ultraviolet light. Six metaheuristics optimization algorithms, namely, nuclear reaction (NRO), differential evolution algorithm (DEA), human felicity (HFA), lightning search (LSA), Harris hawks (HHA), tunicate swarm (TSA) were combined with random forest (RF) technique establish models. A database 200 data points was acquired from experimental studies model training testing. Furthermore, multiple statistical indicators 10-fold cross-validation examine established model's robustness. The TSA-RF demonstrated superior prediction among six suggested models, achieving an impressive correlation (R) 0.90 lower root mean square error (RMSE) 0.25. contrast, HFA-RF, HHA-RF, NRO-RF exhibited slightly R-value 0.88, RMSE scores 0.32. DEA-RF LSA-RF while effective, showed marginally 0.85, values 0.45 0.44, respectively. Moreover, SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) results indicated that rates through photocatalysis most notably influenced by factors such reactor sizes, dosage, humidity, intensity.

Semiconductor-based photocatalytic technology is regarded as an efficient pathway for resolving the energy scarcity across globe. In this regard, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4)-based materials could be alternatively employed in photochemical applications such photovoltaic generation via CO2 photoreduction and water splitting, along with natural resource purification organic/inorganic pollutant degradation. Indeed, kind of assertion has been made by considering intrinsic physicochemical properties g-C3N4 nanomaterials, owing to their increased surface area, quantum yield, charge isolation, distribution, ease modification through material configuration or incorporation preferred interfacial capabilities. This review article designed provide most up-to-date information regarding further assessment important advancements fabrication various while specifically focusing on scientific reason behind its success each assessment. The discovery interventions alleviate restrictions boost performance gained substantial interest. Following photo-excitation fundamentals, work explains two distinct photoexcitation mechanisms, carrier transfer techniques, wherein significant exciting state impact still not widely focused past studies. regards, we cautiously introduce updated advances associated functions alteration including morphological features, elemental dopants, deficiency engineering, heterojunction implemented performance, which are equated from transport perceptions. future perspectives designing properly tuning highly active hierarchical copolymer nanoparticles a system, may improve renewable cultivation reduction efficiency critically deciphered detail outlined thoroughly.
