BTEX levels in rural households: Heating system, building characteristic impacts and lifetime excess cancer risk assessment.

Environmental Pollution, 2022
BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene) are a group of toxic organic compounds that exposure to them can cause adverse short and long terms health effects.

Alleviation of metal and BTEX inhibition on BTEX degradation using PVA-immobilized degrader: kinetic model of BTEX degradation

Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering, 2013
Alleviation of metal inhibition on BTEX degradation using PVA-immobilized degrader (Mycobacterium sp. CHXY119) was investigated. When BTEX of 29 mg L(-1) [B:T:E:X = 1:1:1:1 (mg)] was used, more than 99 % of BTEX was simultaneously degraded by the free cells within 170 h. In contrast, BTEX of 114-172 mg L(-1) seriously inhibited degradation.

Human exposure to BTEX emitted from a typical e-waste recycling industrial park: External and internal exposure levels, sources, and probabilistic risk implications.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2022
Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) can be released during extensive activities associated with the disposal of electronic waste (e-waste), which might pose deleterious health effects on workers. In this study, pollution profiles of BTEX in

BTEX biodegradation is linked to bacterial community assembly patterns in contaminated groundwater ecosystem.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2021
The control of degrader populations and the stochasticity and certainty of the microbial community in contaminated groundwater are not well-understood. In this study, a long-term contaminated groundwater ecosystem was selected to investigate the impact ...

Biofiltration for BTEX Removal

Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology, 2012
Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) biofiltration is an increasingly popular research area because it offers a relatively cheap solution to limit emissions of these toxic agents to the atmosphere. The authors review different technological options for biofiltration, and discuss the main influencing factors including type of packing ...

Global preterm births attributable to BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene) exposure.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Epidemiological studies have shown that long-term exposure to toxic volatile organic compounds, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX), is associated with preterm births (PTB).

Microfluidic Device for Airborne BTEX Detection

Analytical Chemistry, 2001
We fabricated a microfluidic device for the optical detection of airborne benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX). The device consists of concentration and detection cells formed of 3 cm x 1 cm Pyrex plates. The concentration cell is composed of an adsorbent to concentrate the BTEX gases and a thin-film heater todesorb the concentrated gases ...

A novel preclinical model of environment-like combined benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) exposure: Behavioral and neurochemical findings.

Neurotoxicology and Teratology, 2022
Environmental exposure to toxicants is a major health issue and a leading risk factor for premature mortality worldwide, including environmental exposures to volatile organic compounds (VOCs), specifically Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene (BTEX)
