This study investigates the pollution of surface sediments resulting from urban runoff, identifies potential pollution sources, and examines the correlation between HMs and two factors: total organic carbon (TOC%) and particle size distribution (PSD). A total of 30 surface sediment samples were collected from three urban channels in the Tehran megacity. The concentrations of key elements, including strontium (Sr), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu), were determined using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). The mean concentrations of Cd, Ni, Cu, Pb, Sr, were 0.46, 39.80, 161.25, 261.75, 388.50 mg/litter, respectively, following the sequence Sr &gt; Pb &gt; Cu &gt; Ni &gt; Cd. To identify the HMs accumulation, factor analysis(FA) was employed. The HMs rank order based on FA was as follows: 37.7% &gt; 24.4% &gt; 24.1%. According to (FA), the possible accumulation source of Pb and Sr is as different as Cu, Ni, and Cd elements.

The specific THMs include CHBr<sub>3</sub>, CHClBr<sub>2</sub>, CHCl<sub>2</sub>Br, and CHCl<sub>3</sub>. THMs are toxic disinfection by-products (DBPs) that pose potential risks to human health and can be present in ready-to-eat vegetables. Our study examined key variables such as contact time, chlorine concentration, and vegetable type on the formation and absorption of these contaminants. Laboratory simulations involved 22 samples characterized by differing chlorine concentrations, contact durations, and three vegetable types: celery, lettuce, and leek. The result showed that the maximum concentration of THMs (354.73 µg L<sup>− 1</sup>) in celery was observed when 300 mg L-1 of chlorine for 15 min was employed. The results demonstrated that contact time significantly affected the formation and absorption of THMs. Celery demonstrates a greater absorption of THMs than others. The evaluation of lifetime cancer risk (LTCR) and hazard index (HI) for THMs across 22 simulated test conditions indicated that CHClBr<sub>2</sub> exhibited the highest LTCR at 7.34 × 10^<sup>−6</sup>. Also, the average influence of LTCR for CHBr<sub>2</sub>Cl constituted 64%, CHBr<sub>3</sub> accounted for 21%, CHBrCl<sub>2</sub> represented 10%, and CHCl<sub>3</sub> was 5%. The results showed that CHBr<sub>3</sub> had the most effect on the hazard index, while CHCl<sub>3</sub> showed the lowest impact.

Meanwhile, they have been detected in diverse matrices such as soil, sediment, and, surprisingly, in serum and even breastmilk. Worrisomely, these compounds are detected in drinking water across the globe, aquaculture water, and other surface waters. Thus, it was important to appraise the studies conducted on PFOS and PFOA to provide an overview of the environmental status of contamination regarding them.

Generally, studies on PFOS/PFOA are still scanty when compared to those on pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), especially in North America.

The findings highlight that biomass-based methods, including the use of microalgae, macrophytes, and microbial consortia, are central to wastewater treatment efforts in Indonesia. These approaches provide sustainable and cost-effective solutions for pollutant removal and resource recovery. The growing emphasis on keywords such as “biofuels,” “bioplastics,” and “circular economy” reflects a strong interest in integrating wastewater treatment with resource recovery and sustainable practices. However, challenges remain in scaling up technologies like bioreactors and adsorption systems while ensuring cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency. For instance, advancements in microbial fuel cells could enable simultaneous wastewater treatment and renewable energy generation, addressing scalability issues. Similarly, the development of enhanced microbial strains for phytoremediation could improve the treatment of persistent pollutants in water and soil. Future research should aim to bridge gaps through interdisciplinary collaboration and explore underrepresented linkages to unlock further innovation.

Their ability to transport pollutants makes them particularly dangerous, underscoring the urgent need for effective removal methods. Herein, we report the synthesis of an environmentally friendly material that enables the magnetic removal of polystyrene nanoparticles (PSNPs) from aqueous solutions by green chemistry approach. The material synthesized by using pine resin extract as a reducing and capping agent is iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (PR@Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> MNPs). Spectroscopic (UV–Vis, FTIR) and microscopic (EFSEM, EDXS) techniques were used to characterize the nanoparticles and confirm the adsorption of PSNPs on the PR@Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> MNPs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns indicated the crystalline nature of the nanoparticles and confirmed the preservation of the structure of PR@Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> MNPs after adsorption. The adsorption of PSNPs (with a diameter of 100 nm) was performed under varying conditions, including different contact times, dosages of PR@Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> MNPs, and concentrations of PSNPs. It was observed that the removal efficiencies of PSNPs (100 mg/L) ranged from 95.45% to 99.13% when the dosage of PR@Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> MNPs increased from 2.5 mg to 10.0 mg after 24 h, reaching the maximum adsorption capacity at 454.55 mg/g.

In this research, type of bacteriological pollution and the associated bacteriological human health risks were evaluated using Monte Carlo Simulation. A cross-sectional study design was carried out in 50 randomly selected beauty salons in Ardabil, during April-June, 2022. <i>Pseudomonas</i> (74 ± 42 CFU/m<sup>3</sup>) was found frequently in almost all (98%) of the salons. <i>Staphylococcus</i> (9 ± 25 CFU/m<sup>3</sup>) and <i>Escherichia coli</i> (5 ± 13 CFU/m<sup>3</sup>) were found in 20%, and <i>Acinetobacter</i> (2 ± 7 CFU/m<sup>3</sup>) was found in 10% of the salons. Salons with makeup and hair dressing had higher concentrations of <i>Staphylococcus</i>. The concentrations of bacteria fairly decreased with relative humidity and increased with the temperature. Furthermore, higher concentrations of the bioaerosols were observed in larger salons and more crowded salons. There was no significant correlation between the type of heating system, building material of the walls, type of ventilation system, as well as bride’s makeup in the salons with concentration of the bioaerosols. The average annual infection risk of <i>Escherichia coli</i> 7.27 (10<sup>− 4</sup>) per person per year (pppy), which was higher than the acceptable limit (10<sup>–4</sup> pppy) suggested by WHO. The results of health risk were above the safe limit of EPA and WHO, indicating possible adverse effects to exposed individuals.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":628,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Health Science and Engineering","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s40201-024-00927-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142714568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}
