Optimizing foam application requires an understanding of its physicochemical characteristics and behavior under subsurface conditions. This review synthesizes current knowledge on foam stability in bulk, behavior in porous media, and remediation applications. First, foam formulations in bulk are considered, including their physicochemical properties and the influence of experimental conditions on foam stability. Second, foam behavior in porous media is discussed, with an emphasis on hydrodynamic parameters affecting generation and propagation. Finally, applications are evaluated in the context of foam function: blocking, displacement, and delivery. While early research focused primarily on blocking and contaminant displacement, increasing attention has been given to the use of foam as a delivery medium for oxidants, reductants, nutrients, and microorganisms that enhance NAPL degradation. Recent advances and remaining challenges have been identified. This includes formulation optimization, formulation-amendment compatibility, operational windows for foam propagation, and the need to define foam function depending on the remediation method intended to assist. This review aims to support future developments in foam-assisted remediation by linking formulation design, porous media behavior, and treatment objectives.","PeriodicalId":10823,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology","volume":"412 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2026-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149152741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, post-consumer food waste often contains plastic debris and associated persistent chemical contaminants, raising safety concerns for food, feed, and environmental health within circular economy systems. This review examines the fate of micro- and nanoplastics and associated chemical co-contaminants, specifically phthalates, brominated flame retardants (BFRs), and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), selected due to their widespread occurrence in plastics, persistence, and potential for transfer through waste streams. Current evidence suggests BSFL are relatively robust to microplastic exposure. Larger microplastics are typically egested, while retention time depends on polymer type, particle size, and larval composition. In contrast, the behavior of nanoplastics remains poorly understood due to analytical limitations and limited experimental evidence. Chemical contaminant fate is strongly governed by compound chemistry. Phthalates may undergo partial microbial transformation within BSFL systems, although the toxicological implications of metabolites such as monophthalates remain unclear. PFAS show inconsistent bioaccumulation patterns across studies, while the behavior of BFRs in BSFL systems remains largely uncharacterized. Many contaminants partition into frass, raising concerns about soil accumulation and potential reentry into food chains. Post-harvest processing, such as blanching or drying, may redistribute rather than eliminate contaminants, depending on their solubility and binding behavior. Most studies rely on spiked exposure designs that poorly represent real waste streams. Harmonized contaminant screening, realistic exposure studies, and fit-for-purpose regulation are needed to ensure safe scaling of insect-based circular bioeconomy systems.","PeriodicalId":10823,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology","volume":"157 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148993912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While chemical toxicity is widely studied, emerging evidence suggests that MNPs act as dynamic biological vectors. Preliminary experimental studies suggest that MNPs colonized with microorganisms may enhance microbial pathogenicity or facilitate host–pathogen interactions, leading to increased mortality in small animal models. However, key questions remain unresolved, including whether MNP-associated microbial communities can be transferred to humans and contribute to chronic disease development. We first examine how the plastisphere can concentrate opportunistic pathogens, enrich antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) via biofilm dynamics, and display distinct ecological behaviors across biodegradable polymers and airborne environments. We then assess preclinical and emerging observational data exploring how ingested and inhaled MNPs may interact with mucosal interfaces, potentially influencing gut and respiratory microbiota composition and barrier integrity. While experimental models suggest that MNP-associated dysbiosis could indirectly fuel systemic inflammation and metabolic/cardiovascular risks, direct causal evidence in humans is currently lacking. Finally, we outline pragmatic preventive strategies, discuss methodological bottlenecks, and advocate for standardized longitudinal studies to clarify the true clinical relevance of the plastisphere.","PeriodicalId":10823,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148946807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
