In this lab-scale study, the POCIS capacity to integrate short contamination peaks of variable intensity and duration was evaluated. POCIS were immersed for 14 days in tanks filled with tap water and spiked at different concentrations with 12 pesticides of various polarities (log Kow = 1.1-4.7) and classes (herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides)...

The organochlorine pollution by chlordecone, an insecticide spread in the past in banana plantations, is now recognized as a major ecological, economic, and social crisis in Guadeloupe and Martinique Islands. Due to its physical and chemical properties, this molecule is particularly persistent in the natural environment. Volcanic soil of Guadeloupe...

Prosulfocarb is a thiocarbamate herbicide that is rapidly growing in use due to the progressive bioresistance of weeds to certain pesticides and the ban and/or limitation of others. However, the use of prosulfocarb is only recent, and the relevant literature is scarce. The environmental and food impact of prosulfocarb has already been observed, and...

The machining of Nomex honeycomb structures represents a technical and scientific barrier for aeronautical applications. The difficulties encountered during the machining of this type of material are linked to the low density of Nomex paper, and to the low thickness of the walls forming the honeycomb cells of this type of structure. In this work, a...

Massive Sargassum sp. beachings have been occurring on Caribbean shores since 2011. The sargassum involved in such events are S. fluitans and S. natans, two drifting species whose proliferation has been observed in the southern North Atlantic Ocean. Both for reasons of environmental and sanitary assessment and repurposing, Sargassum sp. that is ash...

Photocatalytic treatment is one of the techniques used for the treatment of dyes-contaminated wastewater. It is important to develop an effective visible-light-driven catalyst for the treatment of dyes-contaminated wastewater. This study reports the synthesis of ZnO-reduced graphene oxide catalyst for the degradation of methylene blue. Graphene oxi...

This research work aims to investigate the effect of fuel-borne additives when added to mahua methyl ester (MME) blend operated on common rail direct injection diesel engine. Nanoparticles (Al2O3 and Fe2O3) were chosen with the help of a homogenizer and ultrasonicator as fuel additives at dosing levels of 40, 80, and 120 ppm, respectively, and the ...
