The United States National Biosolids Partnership: Improving Biosolids Management

open access: yesWater Practice and Technology, 2007
The U.S. National Biosolids Partnership (NBP), an alliance of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) and Water Environment Federation (WEF), was formed in 1997 in response to public acceptance issues dealing with biosolids management.

Ecotoxicological Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Butylparaben in Edaphic Organisms Using Multiple Biomarkers

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 176-189, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Butylparaben (BuP) recurrently contaminates soils worldwide, mainly by incorporating sewage sludge into cultivated areas, using wastewater in irrigation, and leaching contaminated soils. However, there are few studies on the ecotoxicological effects of this paraben on edaphic organisms.

2‐line Ferrihydrite Enhance Microbial Synthesis of Plant Biostimulants in Composted Biosolid by Regulating Phyla Pseudomonadota and Actinomycetota

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.
This study explores how iron and manganese oxides transform sewage sludge into plant biostimulants during composting. Non‐targeted identification reveals the main species of plant biostimulants. Metagenomic analysis reveals that 2‐line ferrihydrite specifically enriches microbial genes for biosynthesis, boosting plant‐growth promoters.

Electroanalytical Quantification of Zn2+ and Cd2+ in Aqueous Matrices Using Low‐Cost Cork Electrodes via Anodic Stripping Voltammetry

open access: yesElectroanalysis, Volume 38, Issue 2, February 2026.
A low‐cost cork‐graphite composite electrode was developed for the electroanalytical determination of Zn2+ and Cd2+ in aqueous matrices using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry. The sustainable sensor showed good sensitivity, acceptable detection limits, and reliable recoveries in tap water, groundwater, and produced water, demonstrating ...

Enhanced Phosphorus Removal From Municipal Wastewater via Cotreatment of Mine Drainage During Primary Clarification

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
Cotreating acid mine drainage with municipal wastewater in existing WWTPs can enhance phosphorus and BOD removal without compromising treatment performance. The approach offers a cost‐effective, infrastructure‐efficient solution that leverages existing plant capacity while decreasing nutrient loads and supporting environmental goals in mining regions ...
