1. Effects of Channel Characteristics on Wastewater Chemical Transformation in Rivers.
PMID:日期:2026-01-01Microbially-mediated transformations are important for removing wastewater chemicals in rivers. In-stream degradation rates are likely to be affected by channel morphology and size because these factors determine the extent of chemical contact between the water column and the microbial community in fixed biofilms, where most microbially-mediated processes are expected to take place. We hypothesize that transformation rate constants are inversely proportional to hydraulic radius (: the ratio of channel cross-sectional area to wetted perimeter). Microbial transformations are also predicted to be controlled systematically by bed sediment characteristics. This will be a function of sediment surface area per unit volume (for biofilm colonisation) and hyporheic exchange. Here, we test the above hypotheses in controlled 14-day laboratory experiments, by monitoring nitrification and biodegradation in stirred tanks with three different water depths and three different sediment sizes (sand, gravel and cobbles). Transformation rate constants were inversely proportional to depth, supporting the notion that channel morphology represents a significant system-specific control. Rate constants for nitrification were highest in the gravel treatments and lowest in sand. This suggests that intermediate grain sizes simultaneously allow good biofilm colonisation and solute exchange between sediment and the water column. There was, however, little difference in biodegradation rate constants between different sediment sizes. This study highlights the need to consider geomorphology in models of chemical exposure.

2. Adsorption of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances by Edible Nutraceutical-Amended Montmorillonite Clays: In Vitro, In Vivo and In Silico Enterosorption Strategies.
PMID:日期:2025-01-01Exposure of animals and humans to PFAS through contaminated water and foods pose significant threats to public health. To tackle this challenge, this study aimed to develop edible clays that might enhance the binding, detoxification, and elimination of PFAS in the gastrointestinal tract. Montmorillonite clays (CM) were amended with caffeine (CMCAF), curcumin (CMCUR), and riboflavin (CMRIB), and the binding efficacy for a mixture of four PFAS (PFOS, GenX, PFOA and PFBS) was determined. In vitro studies were used to explore adsorption isotherms while computational simulations investigate PFAS mixture, delineate the contribution of each PFAS molecule to clays and determine if amended clays can contribute to enhanced binding of different PFAS in the mixture. In vivo models ( and ) were used to validate in vitro and in silico studies and establish the safety and effectiveness of these amended clays. The resulting Q and K values along with the curved shape of the Langmuir plot indicated saturable binding of GenX, PFOA and PFOS to active surfaces of CM and the amended clays. All three clays demonstrated a slightly higher binding capacity for GenX than the parent clay. Furthermore, the simulations elucidated the binding contribution of each PFAS molecule to parent and amended clays as well as predicting how amended clays can contribute to mechanisms of binding of different PFAS in the mixture. The proof-of-concept for the efficacy of the clays was established in and , where the clays (at 1% w/v inclusion) protected against toxicities of the four PFAS controls. This protection could be attributed to PFAS binding to the amended clays and the biological activities of these nutraceuticals (caffeine, riboflavin, and curcumin) including antioxidative, anti-inflammatory and modulatory activities which mitigate the oxidative stress and inflammatory effects of PFAS. These edible toxin binders may be delivered in mixtures as additives in flavored drinking water and food to decrease PFAS exposure.

3. Spatial Investigation of Legacy Pollutants within a Confirmed Cancer Cluster in Three Houston, TX Neighborhoods.
PMID:日期:2024-06-01Two cancer clusters near potential contamination sites have recently been identified in Northeast Houston, Texas. A Creosote plume from the Englewood Rail Yards wood treatment processes during the early 1900s to the 1980s is one suspected cause identified by community groups. We present a case study that demonstrates how complex spatial analysis and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be used to identify spatial relationships between soil contaminant risk variables (total incremental lifetime cancer risk (LCR), the total concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), benzo(a)pyrene, naphthalene, and pyrene) and the CDC's Environmental Justice Index (EJI). The results identify spatial patterns between the distribution of PAH contaminants and areas with the highest cumulative environmental injustice impacts. The bivariate LISA High-High (HH) clusters delineate areas near the creosote plant where high PAH concentrations and increased cancer risk converge with heightened environmental burdens. Low-Low (LL) clusters, signifying areas with lesser PAH exposure and environmental strains, predominantly spanned the southeastern sectors of the study site. Furthermore, the spatial outliers yielded from bivariate LISA highlight spatial discrepancies: areas with low soil contaminant hazards surrounded by high EJI values were evident in the southwest, while regions of amplified soil contaminant risk juxtaposed against reduced EJI scores were primarily spotted in the southeastern quadrant. By discerning the nuanced distribution and potential exposure points of soil contaminants, spatial analytics enable public health professionals to craft targeted interventions, ensuring that mitigation efforts are targeted where they are most needed.

4. Efficient Removal of Analgesic and Anti-Inflammatory Drugs from Sewage Treatment Plant Effluents Using Magnetite Nanoparticles Synthesized Red Mud.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the consumption of pharmaceuticals, especially paracetamol, has sharply increased on a global scale. The increasing concentration of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs (AAIDs) in the aquatic medium is a global problem for human and aquatic life. Therefore, simple and effective treatment options for removing AAIDs from wastewater after the COVID-19 pandemic are needed. The removal of AAIDs (acetaminophen, acetylsalicylic acid, codeine, diclofenac, ibuprofen, indomethacin, ketoprofen, mefenamic acid, naproxen, and phenylbutazone) from sewage treatment plant (STP) effluents by the prepared magnetite nanoparticles synthesized from red mud (mNPs-RM) is presented for the first time in this study. The removal efficiencies of AAIDs onto mNPs-RM were determined to be between 90% (diclofenac) and 100% (naproxen, codeine, and indomethacin). Acetaminophen (paracetamol) was used as a model compound in kinetic and isotherm model studies. The adsorption of acetaminophen was matched well with the pseudo second order kinetic model. Film diffusion governed its rate mechanism. The Freundlich isotherm model preferably fitted the adsorption data with an adsorption capacity of 370 mg/g at 120 min contact time at pH 7.0 at 25 °C. Furthermore, the regenerated mNPs-RM were used four times without affecting the adsorption capacity and the magnetic separability. mNPs-RM can be used as a simple, inexpensive and effective adsorbent for removing AAIDs from STP effluents. Also, low cost adsorbent obtained from industrial waste could be employed to replace the high cost activated carbons for the adsorption of other micro pollutants in STP effluents.

5. A Review on Photocatalysis Used For Wastewater Treatment: Dye Degradation.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Water pollution is a global issue as a consequence of rapid industrialization and urbanization. Organic compounds which are generated from various industries produce problematic pollutants in water. Recently, metal oxide (TiO, SnO, CeO, ZrO, WO, and ZnO)-based semiconductors have been explored as excellent photocatalysts in order to degrade organic pollutants in wastewater. However, their photocatalytic performance is limited due to their high band gap (UV range) and recombination time of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Strategies for improving the performance of these metal oxides in the fields of photocatalysis are discussed. To improve their photocatalytic activity, researchers have investigated the concept of doping, formation of nanocomposites and core-shell nanostructures of metal oxides. Rare-earth doped metal oxides have the advantage of interacting with functional groups quickly because of the 4f empty orbitals. More precisely, in this review, in-depth procedures for synthesizing rare earth doped metal oxides and nonocomposites, their efficiency towards organic pollutants degradation and sources have been discussed. The major goal of this review article is to propose high-performing, cost-effective combined tactics with prospective benefits for future industrial applications solutions.

6. Driving Forces of Meteorology and Emission Changes on Surface Ozone in the Huaihe River Basin, China.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Surface ozone () pollution in China has become a serious environmental problem in recent years. In the present study, we targeted the HRB, a large region located in China's north-south border zone, to assess the driving forces of meteorology and emission changes on surface ozone. A Kolmogorov-Zurbenko () filter method was performed on the maximum daily average 8-h (MDA8) concentrations of ozone in the HRB during 2015-2020 to decompose the original time series. The findings demonstrated that the short-term (), seasonal (), and long-term components () of MDA8 variations accounted for 34.2%, 56.1%, and 2.9% of the total variance, respectively. has the greatest influence on the daily variation in MDA8 , followed by . In coastal cities, the influence of was enhanced. The influence of was stronger in the northwestern HRB. Air temperature is the prevailing variable that influences the photochemical formation of ozone. A clear phase lag (7-34 days) of the baseline component between MDA8 and the atmospheric temperature was found in the HRB. Using multiple linear regression, the effect of temperature on ozone was removed. We estimated that the increase in ozone concentration in the HRB was mainly caused by the emission changes (79.4%), and the meteorological conditions made a small contribution (20.6%). This study suggests that reductions in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will play an important role in further ozone pollution reduction in the HRB.

7. {"_":"Toxicological Effects of Fine Particulate Matter (PM): Health Risks and Associated Systemic Injuries-Systematic Review.","sub":["2.5"]}
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Previous studies focused on investigating particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 µm (PM) have shown the risk of disease development, and association with increased morbidity and mortality rates. The current review investigate epidemiological and experimental findings from 2016 to 2021, which enabled the systemic overview of PM's toxic impacts on human health. The Web of Science database search used descriptive terms to investigate the interaction among PM exposure, systemic effects, and COVID-19 disease. Analyzed studies have indicated that cardiovascular and respiratory systems have been extensively investigated and indicated as the main air pollution targets. Nevertheless, PM reaches other organic systems and harms the renal, neurological, gastrointestinal, and reproductive systems. Pathologies onset and/or get worse due to toxicological effects associated with the exposure to this particle type, since it can trigger several reactions, such as inflammatory responses, oxidative stress generation and genotoxicity. These cellular dysfunctions lead to organ malfunctions, as shown in the current review. In addition, the correlation between COVID-19/Sars-CoV-2 and PM exposure was also assessed to help better understand the role of atmospheric pollution in the pathophysiology of this disease. Despite the significant number of studies about PM's effects on organic functions, available in the literature, there are still gaps in knowledge about how this particulate matter can hinder human health. The current review aimed to approach the main findings about the effect of PM exposure on different systems, and demonstrate the likely interaction of COVID-19/Sars-CoV-2 and PM.

8. Long-Term Air Pollution Characteristics and Multi-scale Meteorological Factor Variability Analysis of Mega-mountain Cities in the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Currently, air quality has become central to global environmental policymaking. As a typical mountain megacity in the Cheng-Yu region, the air pollution in Chongqing is unique and sensitive. This study aims to comprehensively investigate the long-term annual, seasonal, and monthly variation characteristics of six major pollutants and seven meteorological parameters. The emission distribution of major pollutants is also discussed. The relationship between pollutants and the multi-scale meteorological conditions was explored. The results indicate that particulate matter (PM), SO and NO showed a "U-shaped" variation, while O showed an "inverted U-shaped" seasonal variation. Industrial emissions accounted for 81.84%, 58% and 80.10% of the total SO, NOx and dust pollution emissions, respectively. The correlation between PM2.5 and PM10 was strong ( = 0.98). In addition, PM only showed a significant negative correlation with O. On the contrary, PM showed a significant positive correlation with other gaseous pollutants (SO, NO, CO). O is only negatively correlated with relative humidity and atmospheric pressure. These findings provide an accurate and effective countermeasure for the coordinated management of air pollution in Cheng-Yu region and the formulation of the regional carbon peaking roadmap. Furthermore, it can improve the prediction accuracy of air pollution under multi-scale meteorological factors, promote effective emission reduction paths and policies in the region, and provide references for related epidemiological research.

9. {"_":"Experimentation and Mathematical Modelling of Process Parameters for Prevention of Infectious Disease Caused by Bacteria in Indoor Environment.","i":["Staphylococcus aureus"]}
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Performance optimization using process parameters of an indoor air filtration system is a requirement that has to be established through experimental and analytical means for increasing machine efficacy. A closed casing containing a motor-driven blower is placed in a glass-encapsulated control volume. Air flows axially through an inlet filter and is thrown radially by the blower. In the radial path, air is treated with free radicals from the UVC-irradiated nano-TiO coated in the inner wall of casing. A known quantity of bacteria is populated (Courtesy: EFRAC Laboratories) in the glass-encapsulated control volume. The bacterial colony count is measured at different time intervals after the machine is switched on. Machine learning approaches are applied to develop a hypothesis space and the hypothesis based on best score is used as a fitness function in genetic algorithm to find the optimal values of input parameters. The present research aims to determine the optimum time for which the setup is operated, the optimum air flow velocity in the chamber, the optimum setup-chamber-turning-radius affecting the air flow chaos, and the optimum UVC tube wattage, which when maintained yields the maximum reduction in bacterial colony count. The optimal values of the process parameters were obtained from genetic algorithm using the hypothesis obtained from multivariate polynomial regression. A reduction of 91.41% in bacterial colony count was observed in the confirmation run upon running the air filter in the optimal condition.

10. Cyanobacteria as a Valuable Natural Resource for Improved Agriculture, Environment, and Plant Protection.
PMID:日期:2023-01-01Taking into consideration, the challenges faced by the environment and agro-ecosystem make increased for suggestions more reliable methods to help increase food security and deal with difficult environmental problems. Environmental factors play a critical role in the growth, development, and productivity of crop plants. Unfavorable changes in these factors, such as abiotic stresses, can result in plant growth deficiencies, yield reductions, long-lasting damage, and even death of the plants. In reflection of this, cyanobacteria are now considered important microorganisms that can improve the fertility of soils and the productivity of crop plants due to their different features like photosynthesis, great biomass yield, ability to fix the atmospheric N capability to grow on non-arable lands, and varied water sources. Furthermore, numerous cyanobacteria consist of biologically active substances like pigments, amino acids, polysaccharides, phytohormones, and vitamins that support plant growth enhancement. Many studies have exposed the probable role of these compounds in the alleviation of abiotic stress in crop plants and have concluded with evidence of physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms that confirm that cyanobacteria can decrease the stress and induce plant growth. This review discussed the promising effects of cyanobacteria and their possible mode of action to control the growth and development of crop plants as an effective method to overcome different stresses.
