Desorption of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons from Soot Surface: Pyrene and Fluoranthene
The kinetics of thermal desorption of two four-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, fluoranthene, and pyrene from well-characterized laboratory-generated kerosene soot surface was studied over the temperature range 260−320 K in a low-pressure flow ...

ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Phytoremediation of anthracene- and fluoranthene contaminated soil by Luffa acutangula
Phytoremediation of soil contaminated with anthracene and fluoranthene, either alone or together, by ridge gourd (Luffa acutangula) was investigated through laboratory pot experiments in a greenhouse for 45 days.

Waste tyres pyrolysis oil (WTPO) as an alternative source of fuel and chemicals: a review
Waste tyres are dumped and common kind of abandon solid waste. Almost 3 billion tyres are produced each year and each tyre produced will eventually join the waste products and if not properly handled will become pollutant.

Biosorption and biotransformation of fluoranthene by white-rot fungus pleurotus eryngii F032
Major concern about the presence of fluoranthene, which consists of four fused benzene rings, in the environment has been raised in the past few years due to its toxic, mutagenic, and persistent organic pollutant properties.

Effects of the sorption/desorption process on the fluoranthene degradation by wild strains of Hansenula angusta and Rhodotorula minuta [PDF]
The fluoranthene degradation was predicted by the sorption/desorption process as its fungal transformation was in relationship with the bioavailabit.

Influence of carbon nanotubes on the bioavailability of fluoranthene
Concurrent with the increase in the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in society is the rise of their introduction into the environment. Carbon nanotubes cause adverse effects themselves, and they have the potential to adsorb contaminants such as polycyclic
