Biomonitoring Total Mercury in the Persian Gulf Using Rock Oyster, Saccostrea cucullata

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2012
This study is an attempt to evaluate the biomonitoring capabilities of rock oyster, Saccostrea cucullata, for mercury (Hg) pollution. The oyster and sediment samples were collected from 10 rocky habitats of Qeshm and Hormoz Islands in the Persian Gulf.

Novel Zwitterionic Polydopamine Nanofiller‐Reinforced Hybrid Membranes With Superior Antifouling Performance for Wastewater Treatment

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work reports one‐pot synthesized novel zwitterionic polydopamine‐silica (ZSiPDA) nanofillers for fabricating PES hybrid ultrafiltration membranes with enhanced hydrophilicity, permeability, and antifouling performance. The optimized membrane achieved over 91% humic acid removal and showed strong potential for municipal wastewater treatment.

Origin of Physicochemical and Mechanical Stability of Low‐Temperature Prepared TiO2‐Based Photocatalytic Films: Surface Hydroxyl Density Matching

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Material science advances show how surface chemistry improves low‐temperature prepared TiO2‐SiO2 composite films. Using a colloidal‐based synthesis method instead of a powdered‐based one, researchers exploit hydroxyl groups' interfacial interactions to create nanoscale structures with superior physicochemical and mechanical stability.

Enhanced Urea Oxidation Reaction by Mn‐Doped Nickel Hydroxide From Wastewater

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Mn incorporation modifies the hydroxide structure and modulates the electronic properties of the Ni centers, promoting the formation of catalytically active NiOOH species. Mn dopants induce a favorable electronic effect but do not directly participate in the UOR mechanism, enhancing the overall urea oxidation rate and resulting in increased hydrogen ...

Pollution, Shadow Economy and Corruption: Theory and Evidence [PDF]

We study how the shadow economy affects pollution and how this effect depends on corruption levels in public administration. Production in the shadow economy allows firms to avoid environmental regulation policies; a large informal sector may be ...
