Different methods are used to eliminate emerging contaminants such as NPs from aquatic environments. Of these methods, phytoremediation using aquatic and wetland plants (WAPs) is considered the most suitable approach because of their extensive root systems, high rates of biomass production, ability to thrive in diverse habitats, and rapid growth within aquatic ecosystems. Various species of genera Lemna, Salvinia, Spirodela, Phragmites, Elodea, and Pistia have been studied for their potential to remediate NPs or contaminants released by NPs. The findings of the review indicate that the majority of WAPs cannot accumulate NPs within their tissues. Nevertheless, the effective methods for removing NPs from the environment by WAPs involve the surface adsorption of NPs onto their roots and the accumulation of pollutants released by NPs within the plant tissues. In addition to the benefits of NPs phytoremediation through WAPs, including sustainability, efficiency, and affordability, there are risks to consider, such as the potential transfer of NPs into the food chain, the release of toxic compounds from NPs due to (bio)degradation, and interactions between contaminated WAPs and other ecosystem components. Furthermore, several research gaps need to be addressed in the future, including a scarcity of field studies, a limited focus on NP types and plant species, unrealistic NP concentration, comparisons with bulk materials, the use of additives and amendments, and the genetic engineering of WAPs.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

Several factors impact O3 formation which include precursor concentrations, meteorological conditions, and transport. In the present study, a rural observational site located in Gadanki (13.5°N, 79.2°E), India, has been identified as a NOx-limited regime, which is a common photochemical processing regime for rural atmospheres, using the O3 production regime indicator (Θ) value. The Θ value approached 0.01 during the daytime in all seasons, indicating a different O3 production regime compared to urban atmospheres, which are generally Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)-limited. Subsequently, efforts have been made to understand the role of VOC and NOx concentrations, along with meteorological conditions and transport, in quantifying the seasonal variation of O3 formation in terms of VOC/NOx sensitivity at the observational site using the photochemical model O3 Isopleth Plotting Package (OZIPR). The VOC cross-over points obtained from the O3 isopleth diagrams using the OZIPR model have shown a significant correlation with O3 Formation Potential (OFP) and Propylene Equivalent Concentration (PEC) values, supporting the variability in O3 formation in most of the seasons at the observational site. Additionally, the highest O3 concentration measured in the summer season is also well reproduced by the VOC cross-over correlations with the OFP and PEC values. Biomass burning VOCs have been found to be the highest contributors to the O3 formation due to their higher emission in the summer season and higher contribution to both OFP and PEC.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

Observed concentrations ranged between 7 ng/l and 1469 ng/l (mean 73 ng/l, median 28 ng/l). Rainy weather conditions generally led to an increase in nicotine concentrations, particularly in canals where concentrations were up to 16 times higher after rain events. For water bodies receiving sewer discharge, mean nicotine concentrations were positively related to population density, while concentrations in surface waters without sewer connections were more related to the presence of public transport stops or recreational areas. Our results highlight the high spatiotemporal variability of nicotine concentrations in urban surface waters. We recommend a temporary systematic daily or event-based monitoring of nicotine concentrations to support our findings and to better understand and quantify emission sources and concentration decay phases. This would improve our still incomplete knowledge about ecological impacts arising from long-term below-lethal nicotine concentrations in urban surface waters.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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, the complex and costly harvesting step can impair their industrial potential. To improve harvesting, tannins are highly applied flocculants for microalgae flocculation but stay attached to the microalgae biomass after harvesting, which is not interesting for some applications. This issue can be solved using associated tannins with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Thus, we synthesized (chemical precipitation) and functionalized MNPs with tannin from Rhizophora mangle and applied them to harvest Chlorella sp. The functionalized MNPs (MNP-TNs) were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XDR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and Zeta potential. At the optimum point, the adsorbent achieved a HE% of 92.6% (MNP-TNs concentration = 1000 mg L-1; pH = 4), maintaining this efficiency during six reuse cycles. The Langmuir isotherm model adjusted best to the data, indicating monolayer adsorption. The process was considered exothermic, favorable, and spontaneous. These results make this material a good candidate for application in larger scales of microalgae harvesting. The high harvesting efficiency, which is particularly impressive given the short time it was achieved in, and the possibility of reusing the particles for several cycles are essential indicators of harvesting optimization; however, some feasibility studies still need to be carried out.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

As the demand for potable water increases globally for human, agricultural, and industrial uses, the need to evaluate the river risk assessment also increases. GIS-based studies in recent years have gained prominence as they are rapid, cheap, and provide insight into the resources for further development of research on the rivers. Therefore, the present study assessed the river risk zone (RRZ) of the Himalayan rivers in the Doon Valley of Uttarakhand in India. A combination of GIS and analytical hierarchical process (AHP) techniques was used in the present study. A total of 15 thematic layers, total dissolved solids (TDS), conductivity, pH, salinity, temperature, depth, drainage density, land use/land cover (LULC), elevation, slope, flow, width, soil type, geology, and aspect, were prepared and studied from primary survey data and open-source digital elevation model (DEM) and satellite imagery for RRZ evaluation. Weights assigned to each class are based on their characteristics and risk towards the river through the AHP method. The RRZ map thus obtained was categorized into five classes: very high, high, medium, low, and very low. The study reveals that about 56.38% of the river area is covered under high and very high-risk zones. The medium, low, and very low-risk zones are observed in 33.71%, 2.93% and 6.98%, respectively. Identifying and monitoring these risk zones give planners and decision-makers opportunities to intervene where it counts most to prevent further degradation or collapse systematically, thus preserving the health and sustainability of river systems over time.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514231","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

The pore formation and corresponding surface area of synthesized mesoporous carbon was governed by carbonization temperature as it increased from 600 to 900 °C. The carbon synthesized at carbonization temperature of 800 °C, that is GN-800, showed highest surface area (1192 m2/g) and pore volume (0.58 cm3/g) amongst the all synthesized mesoporous carbons. For all the thiophenic sulfur compounds, the prepared mesoporous carbons exhibited improved adsorptive desulfurization performance as the adsorption temperature increased from 25 to 70 °C. The oxygen enriched adsorbents showed higher oxygen content and improved removal for all the thiophenic sulfur compounds. The oxygen enriched adsorbent, obtained by treatment with nitric acid (V) and carbonized at 800 °C, showed highest adsorptive desulfurization performance for all sulfur compounds. At 70 °C the removal for thiophene, benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene was 97.7, 93.8 and 90.2%, while the corresponding adsorption capacities were 58.7, 56.3 and 54.6 mg/g, respectively. For mesoporous carbonized carbons, the π-π interaction also contributed to adsorptive forces in addition to Van der Waals forces. For the oxygen enriched samples, additional acid-base interactions also contributed to adsorptive forces. The experimental data was best fitted to pseudo-second order kinetics model and Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorbent showed a slight drop in the removal percentage after five adsorption-regeneration cycles. The oxygen enriched groundnut shell derived mesoporous carbon was observed to have the potential to function as an excellent desulfurization adsorbent for producing clean fuel.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

The development of effective photocatalysts that function in sunlight and visible light can greatly improve wastewater treatment systems. Combining reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with silver/silver chloride core-shell nanowires (Ag/AgCl-NW) might offer special optical and structural properties that enhance its photocatalytic activity for RhB degradation. Ag/AgCl-NW/rGO composite was produced by electroplating rGO onto stainless steel and then covering it with evenly dispersed Ag/AgCl-NW. In 120 min, the Ag/AgCl-NW/rGO composite degraded 99.78% of RhB (dye concentration of 10 ppm at pH 8) under visible light, following pseudo-first-order kinetics (rate constant: 0.0498 min⁻1) and maintaining its effectiveness for four reuse cycles. The photodegradation pathway is primarily dominated by direct chromophore degradation rather than the more typical de-ethylated rhodamine (Rh-110) pathway. Unlike RhB, Rh-110 is only produced when exposed to visible light, and it is completely oxidized in the presence of sunlight. These findings show the Ag/AgCl-NW/rGO composite to be a promising photocatalyst for effective RhB degradation in visible light and enhanced efficiency in sunlight, highlighting its potential for sustainable wastewater treatment applications.","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143497582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}
