Influence of Fertilization on the Phytoremediation of Lead‐Contaminated Soils Using Tropical Grasses
ABSTRACT Lead is an element intensively used by human activities, representing serious risks to food security due to soil contamination, making it essential to implement control strategies to mitigate its harmful effects. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of soil fertilization on the growth and lead accumulation of grasses used ...

Abstract The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authorities of the rapporteur Member State, Greece, and co‐rapporteur Member State, Germany, for the pesticide active substance clodinafop‐propargyl are reported. The context of the peer review was

Abstract CO2 solubility in deep eutectic solvent (DES) is a critical property to indicate the competence of using DESs for carbon capture. This work presents a systematic screening framework with computational and experimental procedures to identify the promising ammonium‐based DESs for CO2 absorption.

Factors Affecting Bioconcentration of Trace Organic Contamination in Waters
The influence of some important biological and physicochemical factors on the bioconcentration of hydrophobic organic chemicals is outlined. For non-ionizable, persistent compounds the bioconcentration factor can be related to a compound's octanol/water partition coefficient, aqueous solubility and molecular weight, while the lipid content of an ...

ABSTRACT The covalent bonds at heterojunction interfaces enable more efficient charge carrier separation than traditional weakly coupled heterojunctions, with enhanced photocatalytic performance for organic wastewater purification. The interfacial covalent bonds drive energy band reorganization, rendering the conventional independent band edge ...
