Traditional PAHs remediation methods—chemical, thermal, and bioremediation—along with conventional soil-washing agents like surfactants and cyclodextrins face challenges of cost, ecological harm, and inefficiency. Here we show an effective and environmentally friendly calixarene derivative for PAHs removal through soil washing. Thiacalix[4]arene tetrasulfonate (TCAS) has a unique molecular structure of a sulfonate group and a sulfur atom, which enhances its solubility and facilitates selective binding with PAHs. It forms host-guest complexes with PAHs through π-π stacking, OH-π interactions, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces, and electrostatic interactions. These interactions enable partial encapsulation of PAH molecules, aiding their desorption from the soil matrix. Our results show that a 0.7% solution of TCAS can extract approximately 50% of PAHs from contaminated soil while preserving soil nutrients and minimizing adverse environmental effects. This research unveils the pioneering application of TCAS in removing PAHs from contaminated soil, marking a transformative advancement in resource-efficient and sustainable soil remediation strategies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34434,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Ecotechnology","volume":"21 ","pages":"Article 100422"},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S266649842400036X/pdfft?md5=96bac56bc159130941db8e4b33781ba9&pid=1-s2.0-S266649842400036X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140788486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These pollutants are characterized by their persistence, potent toxicity, and capability for long-range dispersion, emphasizing the importance of their eradication to mitigate environmental pollution. While conventional methods for removing chlorinated organic pollutants encompass advanced oxidation, catalytic oxidation, and bioremediation, the utilization of biochar has emerged as a prominent green and efficacious method in recent years. Here we review biochar's role in remediating typical chlorinated organics, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), triclosan (TCS), trichloroethene (TCE), tetrachloroethylene (PCE), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), and chlorobenzenes (CBs). We focus on the impact of biochar material properties on the adsorption mechanisms of chlorinated organics. This review highlights the use of biochar as a sustainable and eco-friendly method for removing chlorinated organic pollutants, especially when combined with biological or chemical strategies. Biochar facilitates electron transfer efficiency between microorganisms, promoting the growth of dechlorinating bacteria and mitigating the toxicity of chlorinated organics through adsorption. Furthermore, biochar can activate processes such as advanced oxidation or nano zero-valent iron, generating free radicals to decompose chlorinated organic compounds. We observe a broader application of biochar and bioprocesses for treating chlorinated organic pollutants in soil, reducing environmental impacts. Conversely, for water-based pollutants, integrating biochar with chemical methods proved more effective, leading to superior purification results. This review contributes to the theoretical and practical application of biochar for removing environmental chlorinated organic pollutants.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34434,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Ecotechnology","volume":"21 ","pages":"Article 100420"},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666498424000346/pdfft?md5=4fa753d162d645e74b728ba849d8fbc8&pid=1-s2.0-S2666498424000346-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140758131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we developed a DL-based object-detection model to identify indicator species, a group of vascular plant species that serve as surrogates for biodiversity assessment in high nature value (HNV) grasslands. We selected indicator species <em>Armeria maritima, Campanula patula, Cirsium oleraceum,</em> and <em>Daucus carota</em>. To overcome the hurdle of limited data, we grew indicator plants under controlled greenhouse conditions, generating a sufficient dataset for DL model training. The model was initially trained on this greenhouse dataset.

In contrast, aerobic denitrification and microbial N assimilation were the primary pathways in NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N systems and low C/N NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>-N systems. A mass balance approach indicated denitrification and microbial N assimilation contributed 4.12–47.12% and 8.51–38.96% in NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>-N systems, respectively, and 0.55–17.35% and 7.83–33.55% in NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N systems to TN removal. To enhance N removal, strategies for NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>-N dominated systems should address carbon source limitations and electron competition between denitrification and DNRA processes, while NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N dominated systems require optimization of carbon utilization pathways, and ensuring adequate DO and alkalinity supply.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34434,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Ecotechnology","volume":"21 ","pages":"Article 100411"},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666498424000255/pdfft?md5=2f1e9b9a567b5a15c78ccb35312d8faa&pid=1-s2.0-S2666498424000255-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140842848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, challenges such as high carrier recombination rates, limited active sites, and suboptimal H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> activation efficiency impede optimal performance. Here we show that single-iron-atom dispersed Bi<sub>2</sub>WO<sub>6</sub> monolayers (SIAD-BWOM), designed through a facile hydrothermal approach, can offer abundant active sites for H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> activation. The SIAD-BWOM catalyst demonstrates superior photo-Fenton degradation capabilities, particularly for the persistent pesticide dinotefuran (DNF), showcasing its potential in addressing recalcitrant organic pollutants. We reveal that the incorporation of iron atoms in place of tungsten within the electron-rich [WO<sub>4</sub>]<sup>2−</sup> layers significantly facilitates electron transfer processes and boosts the Fe(II)/Fe(III) cycle efficiency. Complementary experimental investigations and theoretical analyses further elucidate how the atomically dispersed iron induces lattice strain in the Bi<sub>2</sub>WO<sub>6</sub> monolayer, thereby modulating the d-band center of iron to improve H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> adsorption and activation. Our research provides a practical framework for developing advanced photo-Fenton catalysts, which can be used to treat emerging and refractory organic pollutants more effectively.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34434,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Ecotechnology","volume":"20 ","pages":"Article 100414"},"PeriodicalIF":12.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666498424000280/pdfft?md5=a1901490d979b42f5bae0ab9ae762938&pid=1-s2.0-S2666498424000280-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140537100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
