Removal of benzotriazoles from domestic wastewater using Pleurotus ostreatus fungal pellets
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Removal of benzotriazoles from domestic wastewater using a fungal pellet reactor with Pleurotus ostreatus. The system effectively removed CBTR (70%), while BTR (19%), 5‐TTR (17%), and OH‐BTH (16%) showed moderate removal. Abstract Benzotriazoles are a group of persistent and mobile substances commonly found in aquatic environments due to inefficient ...

CleanMat, EarlyView.Oyster shell (OS) as a sustainable calcium source for chromium recovery from tannery sludge via co‐pyrolysis. OS outperformed CaCO3, achieving > 95% Cr recovery, attributed to its organic matrix proteins enhancing adsorption and phase conversion. The oxidation of tannery sludge Cr(III) to Cr(VI) improved recyclability, aligning with circular economy ...
