To activate persulfate to generate reactive species such as sulfate radical (SO4•-) for micropollutants abatement, external energy or chemicals are often needed. In this study, a novel SO4•- formation pathway was reported during the oxidation of neonicotinoids by peroxydisulfate (S2O82-, PDS) without any other chemical additions. Thiamethoxam (TMX)...

Despite recent attention being paid to the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in cold environments, scale-up studies of biodegradation are lacking. Herein, the effect of scale-up on the enzymatic biodegradation of highly contaminated soil at low temperatures was studied. A novel cold-adapted bacteria (Arthrobacter sp. S2TR-06) was isolated th...

Microbial colonization on microplastics has provoked global concern; however, many studies have not considered the successional patterns and potential roles of abundant and rare taxa of the plastisphere during colonization. Hence, we investigate the taxonomic composition, assembly, interaction and function of abundant and rare taxa in the riverine ...

Methylmercury (MeHg) uptake by demethylating bacteria and inorganic divalent mercury [Hg(II)] uptake by methylating bacteria have been extensively investigated because uptake is the initial step of the intracellular Hg transformation. However, MeHg and Hg(II) uptake by non-methylating/non-demethylating bacteria is overlooked, which may play an impo...

The impact of biodegradable microplastics on the microbial community and dissolved organic matter (DOM) in latosol has not been well reported. In this study, an incubation experiment at 25 ºC for 120 days using latosol amended with low (5%) and high (10%) concentrations of polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) microplastics was carried out to e...

There are concerns that the innovation of genetically modified herbicide-tolerant (GMHT) plants, as well as the application of herbicide to such GMHT plants, could have an impact on ecological interactions and unintentionally harm non-targeted organisms. Consequently, we intend to use full-length 16 S rDNA amplicon sequencing to examine changes in ...

Ocean acidification (OA) is one of many major global climate changes that pose a variety of risks to marine ecosystems in different ways. Meanwhile, there is growing concern about how nanoplastics (NPs) affect marine ecosystems. Combined exposure of marine organisms to OA and NPs is inevitable, but their interactive effects remain poorly understood...

This manuscript showcases results from a large scale and comprehensive wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) study focussed on multi-biomarker suite analysis of both chemical and biological determinants in 10 cities and towns across England equating to a population of ∼7 million people. Multi-biomarker suite analysis, describing city metabolism, can ...

Technetium-99m (99mTc) is an important medical radionuclide. Due to the crisis in supply of molybdenum-99 (99Mo), production of 99mTc directly via the 100Mo (p, 2 n) reaction by cyclotron was proposed. In this process, the most critical challenge is to rapidly and efficiently separate 99mTc from high concentration of molybdenum. In this work, a nov...

Electrocatalytic oxidation is a promising technology for eliminating bio-recalcitrant organic pollutants; however, the low efficiency and poor durability of the anodes hinder its practical application. Herein, a SnO2-Sb nano-pin array (NPA) was fabricated on a RuO2-based dimensionally stable anode (DSA) via a new hydrothermal-electrodeposition rout...
