Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Metal contamination in aquatic ecosystems poses substantial risks to freshwater organisms, with mixture effects often deviating from predictions based on single‐metal toxicity. Understanding how age‐specific sensitivities and multiple exposure pathways influence mixture effects is critical for accurate risk assessment.

Life Cycle Assessment of a novel digestate treatment unit for anaerobic digestate plant: a UK case [PDF]
, 2023 Management of digestate co-product produced from anaerobic digestion (AD) has become a challenge due to impacts on the environment. Valorising AD into high-value products is not only considered as a solution to this issue but can also make AD more cost ...

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the widespread presence of cigarette butts in the environment, the potential toxicological effects posed by microplastics (MPs) derived from them remain poorly understood. In this study, we compared the effects of MPs from conventional cigarette butts (cellulose acetate) and heated tobacco devices (cellulose acetate and polylactic acid

Digestate from Biogas Plants is an Attractive Alternative to Mineral Fertilisation of Kohlrabi
Journal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2014 This study examined the potential for the use of digestate from biogas plants for the fertilisation of kohlrabi. Kohlrabi was grown in two pot experiments in consecutive years using digestate, mineral fertiliser (urea) with a nitrogen (N) content ...
