Soil decontamination by supercritical extraction

open access: yes, 2003
Some of the existing techniques for soil decontamination are reviewed, giving particular emphasis to supercritical extraction (SCE), an environmental friendly technique whose applications to the treatment of effluents and soil remediation are only emerging now.

Environmentally Friendly Lubricants: The Role of Biopolymers in Modern Tribology

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2026.
Biomass‐derived biopolymers modified for green tribology applications with reduced friction, wear, and environmental footprint. ABSTRACT Energy losses due to friction and wear are a major challenge for the energy efficiency and sustainability of mechanical systems, motivating the development of green tribology strategies.

Extractive decontamination of cesium-containing soil using a biodegradable aminopolycarboxylate chelator

open access: yes, 2017
The radiocesium released from the anthropogenic sources or radiological activities tends to migrate in the least-mobile soil fraction over time. The water-only washing is thus less-efficient for the decontamination of cesium-laden soils.

Dry Cleaning and Post‐Cleaning Strategies in Food Processing Facilities: A Scoping Review

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective dry cleaning and post‐cleaning treatments are essential for maintaining food safety in dry‐food processing environments where water use must be minimized. This scoping review mapped and synthesized empirical research on minimal‐water cleaning methods applied to industrial surfaces, focusing on their efficacy against microbial and ...

Addressing false negatives and positives in eDNA studies

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 1977-2008, July 2026.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) has revolutionized the study of ecology and biodiversity, enabling species detection without direct observation in the environment. However, the implications of detection errors, specifically false positives and false negatives, are poorly reported in eDNA studies, significantly hindering our understanding of the ...

Use of Biodegradable Sorbents to the Decontamination of Polluted Soils

open access: yesThe Annals of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati. Fascicle IX, Metallurgy and Materials Science, 2018
The paper presents the decontamination of soils polluted with diesel, oils and other petroleum products. Soil decontamination is applied in-situ and ex-situ, depending on the surface and depth of the polluted area.

Mineral Stabilization Slows Losses of Peatland Carbon Following Long‐Term Drainage for Agriculture

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
Current soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and the potential gains if the mineral C deficit was fulfilled. (A) Total SOC stocks (purple) stacked with the potential gains if the mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) potential was achieved. MAOC potential is calculated via the mineral C deficit.

Cleaning Methods and Microbial Safety of Child Feeding Equipment: A Systematic Review

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial contamination of child feeding equipment (CFE) includes feeding bottles, teats, and breast pumps. This contamination is a recognized pathway for enteric pathogen exposure during early childhood, particularly during the complementary feeding period (6–24 months).

Provenance legacies override species effects in shaping oak rhizosphere microbiomes and metabolomes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 488-504, July 2026.
Graphical representation of experimental setup. Quercus spp. seeds were collected at two origins: upper Rhine basin (URB) and north German lowland (NGL). Summary As climate change drives more frequent drought‐heat extremes, selecting drought‐tolerant trees is crucial for future forest resilience. However, the role of tree–microbial associations remains
