Efficient degradation of sulfamethoxazole using unactivated and biochar-activated peroxymonosulfate: Mechanisms and performance comparison

Water Cycle
Peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based advanced oxidation processes are widely used in environmental purification. But the intrinsic oxidizing properties of unactivated PMS are often overlooked in pollutant degradation.

Identification of ciguatoxins in a shark involved in a fatal food poisoning in the Indian Ocean

Scientific Reports, 2017
Severe food poisoning events after the consumption of sharks have been reported since the 1940s; however, there has been no clear understanding of their cause. Herein, we report for the first time the presence of ciguatoxins (CTXs) in sharks.

Modulating the sulfurization procedure to decrease by-product formation for one-step catalytic synthesis of sulfur-containing chemicals

Fuel Processing Technology
The one-step synthesis of sulfur-containing chemicals, methanethiol (CH3SH), from syngas and hydrogen sullfide (H2S) mixtures shows the enormous potential for extending the application of both C1 chemistry and sulfur resource recycling and utilization ...

Oxidative polymerization versus degradation of organic pollutants in heterogeneous catalytic persulfate chemistry.

Water Research
Catalytic polymerization pathways in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have recently drawn much attention for organic pollutant elimination owing to the rapid removal kinetics, high selectivity, and recovery of organic carbon from wastewater. This work

Evidence of traffic-related pollutant control in soil-based Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) [PDF]

, 2009
SUDS are being increasingly employed to control highway runoff and have the potential to protect groundwater and surface water quality by minimising the risks of both point and diffuse sources of pollution.

Turning microplastics into nanoplastics through digestive fragmentation by Antarctic krill

Nature Communications, 2018
Microplastics are emerging ocean contaminants, but their fates in the ocean environment are poorly understood. Here the authors show that Antarctic krill digest micro plastics into nano plastics, thereby generating particles of a size that can cross ...

Coupling of Fenton reaction and white rot fungi for the degradation of organic pollutants

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are a class of highly efficient pollution remediation technologies that produce oxidising radicals under specific conditions to degrade organic pollutants. The Fenton reaction is a commonly applied AOP.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting
