ABSTRACT The environmental hazards of sunscreens are discussed worldwide. However, there are few ecotoxicological studies on these compounds alone for edaphic organisms, and none for their mixtures. Avobenzone (1 and 10 ng/L), octocrylene (10 and 100 μg/L), and oxybenzone (2 and 20 μg/L), alone and in binary combinations (between the lowest and the ...

Abstract Trace organic compounds (TrOCs) in lotic systems pose risks for ecosystem and human health. TrOCs can enter groundwater along losing river sections, yet little is known about the spatial extent of infiltration zones and the biogeochemical factors controlling the spatial variability of TrOC reactivity and removal, particularly along river‐to ...

Emerging Technologies for Biobutanol Production via Syngas Fermentation
Biobutanol production from syngas is promising but limited by microbial energy conservation and gas–liquid mass transfer. This review integrates advances in cultivation control and bioreactor engineering with next‐generation biological tools including metabolic rewiring, co‐cultivation and chain elongation, and electro‐fermentation to enable carbon ...

This study demonstrates, for the first time, the expression of the cooS gene during composting, confirming microbial CO production under mesophilic conditions. The results highlight composting as a novel waste‐to‐biochemicals process, offering a sustainable, low‐carbon pathway for generating carbon monoxide via bacterial CO dehydrogenase activity ...
