The 5T Paradox of Triclosan: From Toiletries to Toxic Trash, a Growing Threat to Humanity

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) persists as a contaminant of concern in the Anthropocene, despite regulatory actions. Environmental dissemination continues through wastewater effluents, biosolid application, and improper disposal practices. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence regarding triclosan's environmental fate, transformation pathways ...

Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

From a Literature Review to an Alternative Treatment System for Landfill Gas and Leachate

Challenges, 2012
This paper provides an alternative treatment system for landfill gas and leachate control in order to reduce the energy consumption and disposal cost, using the recycled landfill gas as the combustion promoter for incineration of the leachate. This study

Recomposing Management Education Under Climate Crisis: Towards a Composting Heuristic for Epistemic Change

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Management learning and education (MLE) is increasingly critiqued for its reliance on anthropocentric and profit‐maximization paradigms, which fail to adequately address the escalating ecological and climate crises. In this article, we call for an epistemic shift in MLE by introducing the metaphor of composting as a lens for collective ...

Analysis of Groundwater Quality Surrounding Municipal Solid Waste Landfill: Banyuurip Landfill, Magelang, Indonesia

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Banyuurip landfill generates leachate containing suspended and dissolved matter, including some heavy metals, a result of waste degradation and decomposition of organic materials. Leachate can infiltrate the soil then contaminate groundwater.

PFAS Leaching from Common Sampling Materials Using a Standardized Protocol

Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate measurement of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in environmental samples requires minimizing external contamination sources, yet the sampling items themselves can introduce PFAS. Existing sampling guidance often relies on precautionary assumptions rather than empirical data, and prior studies have lacked standardized ...

Evaluating the landfill leachate quality using leachate pollution index (LPI) and technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS)

Economics and Environment
Variability and diversity of landfill leachate cause difficulties in assessing the actual degree of threat to the environment and selecting an appropriate method of disposal or treatment.

Physical and chemical characterization of recycled glass sand for environmental restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We rely on coastal resources for food, water, and energy. However, over 75% of U.S. coastlines are eroding. Concurrently, the U.S. recycles less glass than other developed countries, landfilling hundreds of millions of tons every year.

Reproduction and the Environment in Southeast Asia: A Scoping Review of Anthropogenic Environmental Change and Sexual and Reproductive Health

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While often neglected, sexual and reproductive health (SRH) is a significant dimension of the health implications of global anthropogenic environmental change, including climate change. However, literature on the topic is scarce and largely neglects low and middle‐income countries (LMICs) and regions such as Southeast Asia.

Sustainability Assessment of Alternative Methods for Destruction of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Water

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants widely recognized for their resistance to degradation and potential adverse health effects. The treatment of PFAS‐contaminated aqueous media (e.g., drinking water, wastewater, and leachate) has been extensively studied in the published literature; however, the
