Integrated use of sewage sludge and basalt mine waste as soil substitute for environmental restoration

open access: yesREM: International Engineering Journal, 2020
If not managed properly, mining waste can be detrimental to the environment. In addition, sewage treatment plants produce sludge, a biowaste rich in organic matter which is often sent to landfills.

Tall fescue performance in response to natural organic and synthetic granular fertilizers and Rhizoctonia solani inoculation

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Repeated applications of natural organic based fertilizers can benefit soil health and potentially suppress some turfgrass diseases. One of the major summer diseases affecting many lawns is brown patch (caused by various Rhizoctonia and Rhizoctonia‐like species).

The Fate of Orally Ingested Microplastics During Cooperative Brood Care in Two Social Hymenoptera Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Microplastics (MP) pose a growing health risk to social Hymenoptera, with colony‐level risks depending on brood care strategies. During cooperative brood care, in the buff‐tailed bumblebee, MP is transferred from workers to larvae, but in the Japanese carpenter ant, the infrabuccal pocket prevents such transfer.

Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles for Food Applications: From Synthesis and Functional Properties to Safety and Sustainability

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Green and conventional synthesis routes produce ZnO nanoparticles with tunable physicochemical properties for food applications, ZnO‐NPs enhance antimicrobial activity, UV protection, and food preservation through ROS generation and ZN2+ release. However, particle dissolution, migration, cytotoxicity, and environmental concerns highlight the need for ...

Surface water quality impacts from organic versus conventional agricultural systems

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Agriculture is integrally intertwined with water, yet we have little information about how the different approaches to growing food influence water quality. Food production through different strategies is driven by economic and environmental concerns. Organic agriculture has increased for several decades and is projected to continue.

Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances in land‐applied biosolids: Accumulation in soils, crop uptake, and potential dietary risk

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Applying biosolids as a soil amendment for crop production is a common practice, raising concerns about the introduction of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) into soils and crops at application sites. We investigated the impact of biosolids application on PFAS concentrations in agricultural soils and crops at three different farms ...

Comparative modeling of greenhouse gas emissions from source‐separated organics: A case study in New York City

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Many urban areas are interested in quantifying the greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint of their organic waste management systems. The biosolids emissions assessment model (BEAM) offers a means to model emissions associated with organic waste management systems and compare the GHG footprints of different management options.

CARACTERIZAÇÃO E POTENCIAL DE SUBSTRATOS FORMULADOS COM BIOSSÓLIDO NA PRODUÇÃO DE MUDAS DE Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi. e Handroanthus heptaphyllus (Vell.) Mattos

open access: yesCiência Florestal, 2017
The properly composted sewage sludge (biosolid) presents significant amounts of organic matter and nutrients to the plant growth in its composition. Therefore, its utilization in a substrate composition for the seedlings production comes to
