Household dog fecal composting: Current issues and future directions

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1876-1891, November 2024.
Abstract Dog feces are a known source of nutrient, pathogen, and plastic pollution that can harm human and ecosystem health. Home composting may be a more environmentally sustainable method of managing dog feces and reducing this pollution. While composting is an established method for recycling animal manures into low‐risk soil conditioners for food ...

Ecotoxicological assessment of waste foundry sands and the application of different classification systems

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 2294-2311, November 2024.
Abstract The application of a battery of bioassays is widely recognized as a useful tool for assessing environmental hazard samples. However, the integration of different toxicity data is a key aspect of this assessment and remains a challenge. The evaluation of industrial waste leachates did not initially undergo any of the proposed integration ...
