Parental Exposure to Nanoplastics and Graphene Oxide Induces Transgenerational Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution by emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) represents a growing threat to global health and ecosystems. This study investigated the effects of parental exposure, both isolated and combined, to 100 μg/L NPs (polystyrene, spherical, 100 nm) and 100 mg/L GO, using Caenorhabditis elegans as ...

Remediation of brine-contaminated soil using calcium nitrate, gypsum, and straw

open access: yes, 2013
Salt-affected soils from point source brine contamination are common in the active oil field in SE Saskatchewan. A remediation process that included dewatering by sub-surface tile drains, application of surface amendments (calcium nitrate and straw), and

Biosurfactant‐assisted recovery and remediation of hydrocarbons from oily sludge using a mobile aerated washing system

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The oil industry generates oily sludge, the accumulation of which poses a serious environmental problem. Conventional methods require high costs, specialized equipment, and qualified personnel. This waste can be treated using biosurfactants.

Ionic liquids: structure–toxicity relationships, predictive toxicology, and sustainable design

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) have often been described as green alternatives to conventional solvents because of their negligible vapor pressure and highly tunable properties. However, low volatility does not necessarily translate into environmental safety, as their biological and ecological effects are strongly influenced by molecular structure.

Field study of in-situ remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soil on site using microwave energy

open access: yes, 2012
Many laboratory-scale studies strongly suggested that remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soil by microwave heating is very effective; however, little definitive field data existed to support the laboratory-scale observations.

Responses of primary producers, anoxia, and chemical feedback to Late Glacial climate change: Insights from a paired lake approach

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Worldwide, lacustrine ecosystems are threatened by eutrophication and deoxygenation. Both processes are driven by the combined effects of human activities and climate change. Understanding the pre‐anthropogenic nexus between warming, eutrophication, deoxygenation, and related feedback is essential to determine how lakes respond to rapid ...
