Pearl aquaculture—profitable environmental remediation?
Science of The Total Environment, 2004Bivalve molluscs are filter feeders, with pearl oysters able to filter water at rates up to 25 lh(-1)g(-1) of dry wt. tissue. Since this process leads to rapid bioaccumulation of recalcitrant pollutants such as heavy metals, organochlorine pesticides and hydrocarbons from impacted sites, it has prompted the widespread use of molluscs as biomonitors to ...

Sonochemical Environmental Remediation
1999At the time of writing this is one of the most rapidly expanding areas of research in sonochemistry with the majority of investigations focusing on the harnessing of cavitational effects for the destruction of chemical pollutants. The field is, of course, much broader than this and in this brief review we will explore several aspects in addition to ...

Cavitational Environmental Remediation
1999ARC Sonics Inc. (ARC) has developed, patented, and successfully demonstrated a new acoustic energy technology for use in ultra-fine grinding, sonochemistry, or remediation of contaminated soils, sludges and liquids. The technology generates low-frequency sonic energy at high power levels — up to 75 kW with plans for up to 250 kW.

Environmental remediation with nanozymes
Artificial enzymes based on nanomaterials, commonly referred to as nanozymes, have garnered considerable attention for their catalytic signal amplification abilities, making them promising candidates for pollutant detection. Their catalytic performance not only makes them adept at detecting pollutants but also positions them as potent tools for the ...Horzum, Nesrin, Metin, Ayşegül Ülkü
