The high organic content of food waste (FW), which represents the largest proportion of municipal solid waste (MSW) (in Latinamerican countries 50–75%), makes its treatment increasingly common trough technologies such as anaerobic digestion (AD), to obtain value-added by-products, such as renewable energy in the form of methane, digestates and othe...

Given the authoritative and well-documented publication records that crenic habitats support the substantial aquatic biodiversity, understanding of algal dynamics in response to anthropogenic and natural stressors in these crenic systems seems paramount. We sampled and monitored twelve freshwater springs for a period of 2 years from 2014 to 2015 to...

Petroleum hydrocarbons have been worldwide concern contaminants because of their mutagenicity and carcinogenicity. The potential biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons at low temperatures is important for petroleum contamination remediation in cold region. In this study, a mixed cold-adapted bacteria flora JY, including seven petroleum-degrading ...

Declining rainfall and extraction of groundwater increase the vulnerability of wetland sediments to ignition and combustion. This study investigated the existence of a unique hydrochemical porewater signal associated with organic-rich sulfidic sediments that have been overheated, dried, cracked, and burnt, by the passage of fire. Porewater was coll...

Loggerhead sea turtle (C. caretta) is the official European bioindicator of marine litter in the Mediterranean Sea. In 2019, 8 sea turtles, out of 28 specimens loggerhead on the Adriatic coast of Molise, were subjected to necropsy. The intestinal contents were collected and the microplastics until 0.45 μm were extracted. Qualitative and quantitativ...

Anaerobic digestion is a possibility for post-hydrothermal liquefaction wastewater (PHWW) treatment because this wastewater is rich in nutrients and organic compounds. However, the PHWW presents many toxic compounds. A strategy for the anaerobic treatment of toxic compounds is using biomass adhered to inert supports forming biofilms, which can offe...

This study presented the efficient removal of tartrazine, a typical biorefractory dye, in a heterogeneous photochemical Fenton-like system adopting Fe0 and oxalate (Ox) (UV/Fe0/Ox). Only 47.4% tartrazine could be removed within 60 min with a UV/Fe0 system. The addition of Ox could significantly enhance the removal of tartrazine to 72.4% within only...

Dust migration from bauxite residue causes serious occupational diseases and dramatic pollutions to on-site workers and the surrounding environment. In order to investigate the enhancement of mechanical properties and wind erosion behavior of non-traditional stabilizers in mitigating bauxite residue dust pollution, this paper carried out mechanical...

Stormwater harvesting and reuse is an attractive option to lower the demand placed on other sources of water supply. However, it contains a wide range of pollutants that need to be removed before it can be reused or even discharged to the waterways and receiving waters. An experimental protocol to estimate the efficiency of a soil-based-filter medi...
