Characterisation of Hedge Burning in the Context of Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) Fire Prevention
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT With global warming, the wildfire season tends to get longer, causing fatalities and devastating damage to human property. Although many countries have implemented fire risk prevention measures, particularly in Wildland Urban Interfaces (WUI), this finding shows that there are weaknesses in the prevention measures. This is mainly due to a lack

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.Abstract Fluid fine tailings (FFT) contain numerous organic compounds, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Growing concerns of PAH toxicity warrants monitoring for environmental consequences and natural attenuation. Conventional Soxhlet extraction yields low (∼50%–60%) recovery of PAHs (naphthalene, phenanthrene, pyrene, dibenzofuran ...
