A review of high nature value farming systems in Europe: Biodiversity, ecosystem services, drivers, innovations and future prospects

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Farming systems of high natural and cultural value represent approximately 30% of farmlands in the European Union and are associated with a high species and habitat diversity and/or the presence of species of European conservation concern. This study aims to synthesize the existing knowledge on the assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

Processability Assessment of Recycled Polymeric Nonwoven Materials in Injection Molding, Film Extrusion and Additive Manufacturing

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Recycled nonwoven face masks are transformed into polymer feedstocks for injection molding, film extrusion, and additive manufacturing. Rheological behavior links composition to processability, enabling material selection and blending strategies.

Pretreatment Effects of Conventional and Reactive Extrusion on LLDPE Waste Pyrolysis

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of the pyrolysis study using original and pretreated LLDPE waste samples. Pretreatment was performed via twin‐screw extrusion at 450°C: without additives (REX), with peroxide (REX‐RO2), or with polypropylene (REX–PP). All four samples underwent pyrolysis at 450°C–475°C for 15–45 min.

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

Polymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...
