Natural attenuation of BTEX and chlorobenzenes in a formerly contaminated pesticide site in China: Examining kinetics, mechanisms, and isotopes analysis.

Science of the Total Environment
Groundwater contamination from abandoned pesticide sites is a prevalent issue in China. To address this problem, natural attenuation (NA) of pollutants has been increasingly employed as a management strategy for abandoned pesticide sites.

An assessment of atmospheric concentrations and spatiotemporal variation of BTEX and associated pollutants in India.

Journal of Environmental Science
Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) pollution poses a serious threat to public health and the environment because of its respiratory and neurological effects, carcinogenic properties, and adverse effects on air quality.

Evaluation of joint toxicity of BTEX mixtures using sulfur-oxidizing bacteria.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2022
Benzene (B), toluene (T), ethylbenzene (E), and xylenes (X) are petrochemicals vital in various industrial and commercial processing but identified as priority pollutants due to their high toxicity.

Formulation of microbial cocktails for BTEX biodegradation

Biodegradation, 2014
BTEX biodegradation by a mixed community of micro-organisms offers a promising approach in terms of cost-effectiveness and elimination of secondary pollution. Two bacterial strains, Pseudomonas putida F1 and Pseudomonas stutzeri OX1 were chosen to formulate synthetic consortia based on their ability to biodegrade the mono-aromatic compounds.

Novel thiol-functionalized covalent organic framework as adsorbent for simultaneous removal of BTEX and mercury (II) from water

, 2020
A novel thiol-functionalized covalent organic framework (COF-S-SH) was prepared as an adsorbent for the simultaneous removal of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes) and Hg(II) ion from water.

Improved BTEX gas sensing characteristics of thermally treated TiO2 hierarchical spheres manifested by high-energy {001} crystal facets

Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2021
Aromatic hydrocarbons like benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX) are lethal volatile organic compounds, which should be precisely monitored to maintain occupational safety and indoor air quality.

Quantitative structure–polarization relationships (QSPR) study of BTEX tracers for the formation of antibody–BTEX–EDF complex

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2004
The multiple linear regression (MLR) analysis and back propagation neural networks (NN) were performed to examine the quantitative structure-polarization relationships (QSPR) for the formation of antibody-BTEX-EDF complex. Five descriptors out of 18 ones were selected for both MLR and NN, respectively, and the selected descriptors in MLR were the same ...

Phytoremediation of BTEX by Plants

2014
The use of plants to treat BTEX has been widely studied. Plants can uptake and transform these compounds with cytochrome P450 monooxygenase and dioxygenase enzymes. These enzymes degrade BTEX to low-molecular-weight molecules such as organic acid and amino acids.

A comprehensive study on spatio-temporal distribution, health risk assessment and ozone formation potential of BTEX emissions in ambient air of Delhi, India.

Science of the Total Environment, 2019
The hazardous air pollutants like benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX) are considered as toxic because of their role in ozone formation and adverse effects on human health.

Characterization of BTEX in Malaysian petrol

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2018
Abstract Current Malaysian legislation comply to EURO 2 grade with maximum of 5% benzene content by volume in petrol and no limit to the aromatic hydrocarbons content that includes toluene, xylene and ethyl benzene until 2027. Benzene, Toluene, Xylene and Ethylbenzene (BTEX) which present in petrol is simultaneously released to the environment in the
