The properties of antibiotics (such as pKa, LogKow, and toxicity) are reported, which are not linked with their removal performance in different CWs. The dominant pathways for antibiotic removal in different CW configurations remain unknown. Removal of conventional pollutant and antibiotic in CWs are independently studied. The impacts of antibiotic involvement on conventional pollutant removal and changes in microbial communities in CWs need further investigation.</p><h3>Summary</h3><p>This review summarized the removal performance of commonly used antibiotics in different types of CWs and identified the specific types of antibiotics (i.e., β-lactams, macrolides, and sulfonamides) that are relatively difficult to remove. It systematically illustrated the mechanisms of essential CW components and their interactions on antibiotic removal. It also discussed the correlation between antibiotic properties and their removal efficiencies, indicating the dominant removal pathways in three CW types. Furtherly, this review analyzed the key operational factor regulation and CW structure modifications on antibiotic removal. Additionally, it concluded that antibiotics generally inhibited the removal of some traditional pollutants (excluding NH₄⁺-N) based on the data from current reports.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":528,"journal":{"name":"Current Pollution Reports","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142438737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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}

Over the decades, the abundant use of these synthetic chemicals has posed a significant threat to the environment and declined crop nutrient uptake efficiency (NUE). Nanocarriers can modulate nutrient release kinetics and extend their availability in the rhizosphere and phyllosphere, improving NUE and crop nutrition. Our review provides insights into the role of nano-fertilizers (NFs) in promoting sustainable agriculture, various macro- and micronutrient fertilizers and formulations and green synthesis methods. An extensive and systematic literature review was conducted, and the data under various sections has been identified using a computerized bibliographic search via the Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar and CAB abstracts, as well as several websites. Over the past decade, considerable research has been conducted employing the NFs for crop nutrition, development, doses and formulations, improving NUE, impacting crop stress resilience, improving economic viability and environmental sustainability and promoting safety. Use of NFs over conventional fertilizers has yielded a positive and significant impact, encompassing all crop production scenarios. NFs provided sustained nourishment to crops throughout the development phases, from germination to harvest, while minimizing the runoff and leachate losses and improving soil properties. Several advancements in the NFs production utilizing green synthesis methods involving microbes and plant materials are developed to reduce pollution, environmental hazards and global warming. Conventional fertilizers possess major constraints like dynamic chemical forms, which are more challenging for plants to absorb and do not provide sustained release of nutrients. NFs are the best alternatives to increase nutrient uptake, crop yield and soil productivity. However, the synthesis approaches involve high-energy and aggressive chemical reagents. The green synthesis of NFs remains the sustainable, eco-friendly, economically viable, reliable and energy-efficient approach which uses microbial and plant extracts. However, the future potential of NFs in promoting sustainability relies on toxicology research that reveals their limitations, offering a thorough understanding of safe crop nutrition with NFs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":528,"journal":{"name":"Current Pollution Reports","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s40726-024-00331-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142411063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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}

Understanding PFAS leaching is crucial for assessing risks associated with leaving impacted material in place, reuse, or disposal. However, there is limited guidance on laboratory methods to measure extent and rate of leaching. This review aims to identify the best methods for assessing PFAS leaching that are reflective of relevant release scenarios.</p><h3>Recent Findings</h3><p>Various methods have been applied to assess PFAS leaching from contaminated materials. The most common are batch leaching methods that simulate particular conditions (e.g. rainfall, landfill), with the intention of providing conservative estimates (worst-case scenarios) of cumulative PFAS release over time. Columns, static leaching, and rainfall simulators are also used to simulate less aggressive field-like conditions. While less common, pan and suction lysimeters have been used to measure PFAS leaching in situ. Most methods use saturated conditions that do not account for the possible influence of air–water interface accumulation and wetting–drying cycles on leaching. A notable gap is the scarcity of data benchmarking laboratory-leached concentrations with real-world PFAS concentrations. Establishing this relationship is crucial for reliable laboratory protocols.</p><h3>Summary</h3><p>This article reviews methods for estimating leaching of PFAS from contaminated materials. Given the variety of methods, selecting those that best simulate assessment objectives is essential. Specific scenarios requiring PFAS leaching assessment, such as leaving materials in place, reuse, and disposal, are discussed.

Because of the dangers that bioavailable PAH fraction pose to receptors, the necessity of the site, the degree of exposure, and the potential for toxicity, remediation of PAH-contaminated locations is crucial. Recent findings suggest that organic amendments, such as compost, manure, and cover crops, play a crucial role in improving soil/sediment health by increasing organic matter content, enhancing structure, fostering beneficial microbial activity, and removing the pollutants. Moreover, they contribute to nutrient cycling and retention, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers, and mitigating their adverse effects on the environment.
