Natural components include polysaccharides, proteins, clay, and metals. Challenges comprise biodegradability, production cost, printing and labeling, policies, the lack of homogeneity and of life cycle assessment, and mismatched expectations of academia and industry. In particular, starch-based packaging has drawbacks that make it unsuitable for food packaging, including poor thermal resistance, barrier properties, and mechanical properties.

Transport can be explained by the Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek theory, the colloid filtration theory, advection–dispersion, Brownian diffusion, interception, gravitational sedimentation, attachment–detachment, straining, blocking and ripening, colloid-facilitated transport, hetero-aggregation, and competitive blocking. Transport research techniques include columns, lysimeters, quartz crystal microbalance, and parallel plate and atomic force microscopy. Metal nanoparticle transformation is characterized by diffuse gradient in thin films and combined microscopy and spectrometry. There are transformation, transport, co-transport, and coupling models. Metal nanoparticles are commonly retained in porous media with small grain sizes, rough surfaces, and surface charges opposite to that of the metal nanoparticles. Transport of metal nanoparticles is favored by colloids and competitive blocking during co-transport. The transformation of metal nanoparticles significantly changes the properties and transport characteristics, which limits the predictions of models.</p>","PeriodicalId":541,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Chemistry Letters","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144987541","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}

Here, we review polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with emphasis on their sources and fate, environmental parameters based on their ratios, toxicity, socioeconomic impact of marine pollution, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in bivalves of the Back Sea, including Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, and Russia. We observe that petrogenic pollution dominates in most regions, with phenanthrene being the predominant compound. Elevated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon levels were observed near major shipping routes, ports, and industrial zones, particularly along Turkey’s coast, the Constanța area in Romania, and Odessa in Ukraine. Lower contamination levels were recorded in less industrialized areas such as Bulgaria. Seasonal variations indicate higher polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations during warmer months, likely influenced by increased recreational and shipping activities. Carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons accounted for a substantial proportion of total pollutants in some areas, posing risks to marine biota and human health.

In particular, drainage pipe networks are critical urban infrastructures for sewage transportation and flood drainage, yet these pipes are susceptible to structural and functional defects that compromise their integrity and efficiency. Failure in drainage pipelines can lead to catastrophic consequences, including urban flooding, soil contamination, sinkholes, and significant economic losses. Here, we review advanced methods to monitor structural and functional defects of drainage pipe networks. We present common defects of drainage pipe networks. Defect detection methods include software-based methods, acoustic methods, infrared thermography, smart ball systems, ground-penetrating radar, and distributed fiber-optic sensing. We found that integrating multi-sensor fusion, software-hardware synergy, and artificial intelligence significantly improves defect detection accuracy and predictive maintenance.
