Dual Effect of Acetic Acid Efficiently Enhances Sludge-Based Biochar to Recover Uranium From Aqueous Solution

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2022
Excess sludge (ES) treatment and that related to the uranium recovery from uranium-containing wastewater (UCW) are two hot topics in the field of environmental engineering. Sludge-based biochar (SBB) prepared from ES was used to recover uranium from UCW.

Simultaneous adsorption of As(III) and Cd(II) by ferrihydrite-modified biochar in aqueous solution and their mutual effects

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
A simply synthetic ferrihydrite-modified biochar (Fh@BC) was applied to simultaneously remove As(III) and Cd(II) from the aqueous solution, and then to explore the mutual effects between As(III) and Cd(II) and the corresponding mechanisms.

Anthropogenic Pb contribution in soils of Southeast China estimated by Pb isotopic ratios

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Isotopic ratios were used to identify the source of Lead (Pb) contamination in rural soils from Southeast China. Enrichment of Pb in surface soils was detected from three sampling locations, with the 206Pb/207Pb ratio indicating recent anthropogenic ...

Rapid revegetation by sowing seed mixtures of shrub and herbaceous species [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2015
Fast revegetation by means of sowing seed mixtures of shrub and herbaceous species is a measure to prevent bare soils from wind and water erosion. A field experiment was used to test the effect of species selection and the ratio of shrub to herbaceous ...

Does Copper Contamination Affect Soil CO2 Emissions? A Literature Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Contaminated soils are widespread and contamination is known to impact several biotic soil processes. But it is still not clear to what extent soil contamination affects soil carbon efflux (CO2) occurring through soil microfauna respiration.
