Cooperative Mineralisation of the Fragrance Ingredient 2‐Cyclohexylidene‐2‐Phenylacetonitrile by a Consortium of a Variovorax and an Acidovorax Strain Isolated From Activated Sludge [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepCooperative mineralisation of the fragrance ingredient Peonile by a consortium of a Variovorax and an Acidovorax strain isolated from activated sludge from a sewage treatment plant. ABSTRACT To be considered ultimately biodegradable, a substance needs to reach ≥ 60% mineralisation in screening tests.

Cold EI—The Way to Improve GC‐MS and Increase Its Range of Applications
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) with Cold electron ionization (EI) is based on interfacing the GC and MS with a supersonic molecular beam (SMB) along with electron ionization of vibrationally cold sample compounds in the SMB in a contact‐free fly‐through ion source (hence the name Cold EI).

Recovering nutrients from urine – A golden opportunity for sustainable fertiliser production
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Agricultural industrialisation has led to levels of nutrients in the environment that are well above safe operating limits, yet fertiliser use is necessary to feed a growing population. The recovery of nutrients from human urine in large, developed cities may offset some of the ecological and economic impacts associated with fertiliser production, as ...

Multilayer Cellulose Acetate–Viscose Films for Bio‐Based, Bio‐Degradable Packaging Applications
Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.Cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose foils stick together comprehensively after mild cellulose sodium hydroxide treatment and heated compression. For combined foils, water barrier properties correlate with CA thickness. Oxygen permeation suffers due to the sodium hydroxide pre‐treatment induced foil changes. The composite represents a biodegradable and

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rare earth elements (REEs) play an irreplaceable role in modern technology and industry. However, due to the highly similar physicochemical properties among REEs, their separation remains a significant challenge. Additionally, REEs often exist in low‐concentration solutions, making efficient REE recovery an urgent task.

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The past decade has witnessed a burgeoning demand of metals for global industrial development and infrastructure. Meanwhile, the depletion of mineral resources and the environmental damage caused by wastewater discharges pose significant threats to both economic and ecological sustainability. Fortunately, metal‐containing wastewaters also hold

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During the past decade, major upgrades have been made to the Kitchener and Waterloo wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Grand River watershed in Ontario, Canada. As part of efforts to evaluate the effectiveness of these investments (>$450 M CDN), a benthic macroinvertebrate (BMI) monitoring program was initiated by sampling upstream and

Outline of a Washing Treatment to Improve Electric Arc Furnace Slag Environmental Behavior
steel research international, EarlyView.This study evaluates a water‐washing treatment for electric arc furnace slag to reduce the leaching of hazardous elements (Cr, Ba, Mo, and V), enabling its reuse. The process effectively decreases leachate concentrations. Using the treated slag as a substitute aggregate in concrete reduces greenhouse gases emissions by 42.5% compared to landfilling ...
