Influence of Returned Water from Sludge Treatment and Return Activated Sludge on 2-Methylisoborneol and Geosmin Behaviors and Concentrations during Wastewater Treatment

Journal of Water and Environment Technology
Compounds such as 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) and geosmin present in the final effluents of wastewater treatment plants may affect water treatment in downstream areas. To reduce the concentrations of 2-MIB and geosmin, we investigated the influence of the

Iliotibial Band Meniscal Augmentation for a Revision Inside‐Out Lateral Meniscus Radial and Horizontal Cleavage Tear Repair

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Surgical repair of complex meniscal tears can be quite challenging, especially in the case of a failed meniscus repair. In this setting, meniscal volume may be lost, leading to an increased risk of osteoarthritis development. To prevent this from occurring, care should be taken to revise these complex tears using an inside‐out technique ...

Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.
