Plasma agriculture as a novel approach started to gain more attention in the last decade. In this work, the effect of plasma activated water (PAW) prepared with different plasma sources from three types of water on germination and growth of Cucumis melo L. was studied. The best effect of PAW from distilled water on the growth of seedlings was obser...

Background/Objectives: The global spread of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) warrants collaborative action. Guidance should come from integrated One Health surveillance; however, a surveillance strategy is currently unavailable due to insufficient knowledge on the sources and transmission routes of CRPA. The aim of the SAMPAN stud...

Currently, the world faces serious challenges in meeting the growing demand for clean water. The present paper demonstrates the possibility of using the ultrafiltration (UF) process to reuse water from wastewater generated in car washes. Car washes commonly use foaming agents with dyes, which, although they are not necessary for washing cars, may h...

Water scarcity challenges in agriculture are prompting the exploration of alternative irrigation sources, including treated effluents. This study investigates the effects of irrigation with treated slaughterhouse effluent on soybean productivity and development, with and without inoculation, over two cropping cycles. Plant performance was significa...

This study investigates the degradation potential of metakaolin-based geopolymer (GP) composites when exposed to real and simulated acidic environments. Traditional OPC concrete, commonly used in wastewater treatment facilities, faces considerable deterioration due to the destructive chemical composition of municipal wastewater. This extensive inve...

Ibuprofen (IBP) is one of the most consumed drugs in the world. It is only partially removed in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), being present in effluent wastewater and sewage sludge, causing the widespread introduction of IBP as an emergent xenobiotic in different environmental compartments. This study describes the use of Labrys neptuniae CS...
