The effect of sewage sludge application on the growth and absorption rates of Pb and As in water spinach

Open Life Sciences, 2016
This paper investigated the effect of the application of sewage sludge on the growth rates and absorption rates of Pb and As in potted water spinach. Our results indicated that application of sewage sludge promoted vegetable growth, and the dry weight of

The effect of pretreatment on VFA production from tofu and tempeh wastewater through anaerobic digestion batch

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Tofu and tempeh, derived from soybeans, are widely consumed for their nutritional value and high protein content. However, the production of these foods generates nutrient‐rich wastewater that poses environmental challenges while offering opportunities for valorization.

Managing PFAS in Sewage Sludge: Exposure Pathways, Impacts, and Treatment Innovations

Journal of Xenobiotics
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a global concern due to their persistence, ubiquity, and accumulation in living organisms. Found in soils, biosolids, water, and the food chain, they pose health risks such as hormone disruption, immune ...

Liquid‐phase oxidation of furfural catalyzed by magnetically separable metal oxide nanoparticles deposited on silica gel

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Oxidation of furfural (FF), a bio‐based platform chemical, was investigated using a range of iron‐, vanadium‐ and iron–zinc‐oxalates supported on silica gel (FeVOx@silica and FeZnOx@silica, respectively) as precursor for FeV@silica and FeZn@silica oxide catalysts and H2O2 as a green oxidant.

Design Space Assessment of Virus Inactivation in Plasma‐Derived Matrices Establishes a Single Detergent Alternative to TX‐100‐Containing Mixes

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detergent Triton X‐100 (TX‐100) is a typical component of solvent/detergent (S/D) mixes applied for virus inactivation steps of biomanufacturing processes, yet environmentally unfavorable properties have led to restrictions on its use. Deviron 13‐S9 has recently been described as an eco‐friendly TX‐100 alternative, with powerful virus ...
