Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species
Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...

Research frontiers in using biochar for heavy metal remediation. Abstract Heavy metal contamination of water has long been a serious environmental issue. Biochar and biochar‐based composites are emerging as effective and sustainable solutions for heavy metal removal due to their strong adsorption abilities and environmentally friendly nature.

Rapid growth in e‐commerce has intensified the need for suppliers that align with sustainability objectives rather than focusing solely on cost and delivery speed. To address this challenge, the study applies an integrated AHP–TOPSIS framework in which Analytic Hierarchy Process assigns criterion weights—Environmental Impact (0.633), Lead Time (0.260),

Abstract Total Suspended Solids (TSS) significantly degrade water quality by reducing light penetration and oxygen availability, while facilitating the transport of toxic contaminants. Managing TSS in watersheds requires an understanding of both hydrological connectivity and pollutant dynamics; however, these efforts are significantly constrained by ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the evolutionary history of biological control agents in their native ranges is crucial for improving their selection, establishment, and performance across environmentally diverse regions. Phytophagous insects that specialize on aquatic plants offer particularly valuable models, as their evolutionary trajectories may be shaped ...

ABSTRACT Fine‐scale environmental drivers shape freshwater mollusc assemblages in urban semiarid rivers. We examined how substrate composition and water chemistry influence mollusc richness and abundance along a polluted stretch of a river in the Brazilian semiarid region. Surveys at five sites recorded 2479 individuals.
