ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

ABSTRACT Unequal load distribution in three‐phase power distribution networks leads to voltage unbalance and decreased network efficiency. Integration of photovoltaics (PVs) and electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) into such networks is a challenging task as their penetration affects the power quality of the system.
