Desirable biomaterials may now be created using a wide range of extracted natural polymers. Mycelium-based biomaterials are being developed into more adaptable, inexpensive, and self-replicating products. Some fungal species, like <em>Pleurotus ostreatus</em> and <em>Ganoderma lucidum</em>, have been recognised as excellent sources of biomaterials with unique morphological, mechanical, and hydrodynamical characteristics. <em>Thermomyces lanuginosus</em> and <em>Purpureocillium lilacinum</em> are two fungal strains that may be used to create biomaterials. This article seeks to introduce these strains and use experimentation to identify their distinctive characteristics. The fungus was cultivated in a lab, and the growth kinetics of the fungus were estimated. The strains of <em>P. lilacinum</em> and <em>T. lanuginosus</em> had maximum specific growth rates (<em>μ</em><small><sub>max</sub></small>) of 1.34 ± 0.024 and 3.09 ± 0.019 L<small><sup>−1</sup></small> d<small><sup>−1</sup></small>, respectively. Decellularization of the fungal biomass was performed using 0.1% SDS solution, after which the scaffolds were created by drying the biomass in plastic moulds. Following that, analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was carried out. The porosity and swelling ratio were also determined and hydrodynamic characterization was performed for the samples. The results show that mycelia have the potential to serve as inexpensive, all-natural bio-scaffolds and <em>T. lanuginosus</em>-prepared materials have a larger swelling ratio and increased porosity, which makes them better myco-materials than those formed from <em>P. lilacinum.</em>","PeriodicalId":72941,"journal":{"name":"Environmental science.

However, the process is not effective in the treatment of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), the presence and treatment of which is an ongoing challenge for water providers. Here, we explore cationic surfactant-enhanced coagulation as a process modification to target the removal of PFAS in existing coagulation/flocculation systems. Batch experiments, in jar testing apparatus, were performed to assess the removal of two short-chain and two long-chain PFAS at an initial concentration of 10 μg L<small><sup>−1</sup></small> with the addition of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) as the coagulant-aid. Our findings suggest that elevated coagulant dose (60 mg L<small><sup>−1</sup></small> of alum or 100 mg L<small><sup>−1</sup></small> of FeCl<small><sub>3</sub></small>) coupled with the addition of a cationic surfactant (1 mg L<small><sup>−1</sup></small> of CTAC) significantly enhanced the removal of both short-chain (perfluorobutane sulfonate: PFBS removal to &gt;40%) and long-chain PFAS (perfluorooctanoic acid: PFOA and perfluorooctane sulfonate: PFOS removal to &gt;80%), with FeCl<small><sub>3</sub></small> showing better performance than alum. Sulfonates (PFBS, PFOS) were shown to be removed more efficiently compared to carboxylates (PFBA, PFOA), presumably due to their higher hydrophobicity leading to better interactions with the flocs. Furthermore, CTAC in combination with traditionally used additives such as powdered activated carbon (PAC), served as a better aid for PFAS treatment and improved the removal of PFBS, PFOA, and PFOS to &gt;98%. This study highlights that introducing a cost-effective pre-treatment with a cationic surfactant to existing conventional treatment systems can improve the performance efficiency in treating PFAS-contaminated waters.","PeriodicalId":72941,"journal":{"name":"Environmental science.

Addressing this critical issue, we develop a state-of-the-art nanocomposite adsorbent by covalently grafting amine functional groups onto graphene oxide (GO) surfaces and making them magnetic with iron-oxide (Fe<small><sub>3</sub></small>O<small><sub>4</sub></small>) nanoparticles. This process results in the creation of magnetic amine-functionalized graphene oxide (MAGO). The efficiency of MAGO is evaluated in the adsorptive removal of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS), and perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS) as model long-chain and short-chain PFAS under different experimental conditions. Our findings reveal that MAGO achieves remarkable removal rates—exceeding 95% for long-chain PFAS and 85% for short-chain PFAS within just 30 minutes—demonstrating not only rapid kinetics but also a resilience across pH levels from 4 to 7. These results are indicative of the synergistic effects of GO and amine groups, harnessing both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions to adsorb PFAS molecules. MAGO not only shows potent pollutant removal but also has impressive regeneration capabilities. Moreover, we demonstrate a novel liquid phase extraction method for PFAS detection, utilizing a colored methylene blue-PFAS complex for spectrophotometric analysis.","PeriodicalId":72941,"journal":{"name":"Environmental science.

FTOHs are consistently detected in consumer products, indicating FTOHs as major degradation products of FT-based SCFPs. Literature on FTOHs indicates that much is known about the release of FTOHs during the production, throughout the lifetime, and at the end-of-life of consumer products. This Perspective combines information from FTOHs in consumer products with sufficient knowledge on FTOH volatility, partitioning to the gas phase, and transformation to perfluorocarboxylates (PFCAs) to understand the extent of FTOH release to the environment. In the indoor environment, FTOHs are released in textile factories to the air during the production of consumer products, indicating a potential inhalation risk for the workers. Meanwhile, indoor air FTOH levels at residential sites are estimated to pose low inhalation risk to humans based on studies of 8:2 FTOH, which is known to undergo human metabolism to perfluorooctanoate (PFOA). Release of FTOHs from FT-based SCFP-applied consumer products to the indoor environment throughout the lifetime of the products is known, as well as release to the outdoor environment through washing, weathering, or drying. At the end-of-life of consumer products, FTOHs are released to air from landfills and can be detected in biosolids. Future policies need to not only account for FTOH presence in consumer products, but also the known FTOH volatility, partitioning to the gas phase, and transformation to PFCAs.","PeriodicalId":72941,"journal":{"name":"Environmental science.

The die-off coincided with the redevelopment of one of the UK’s flagship ports, prompting local scientists to suggest the remobilization of dredged industrial contaminants as a cause. A multi-agency investigation found no definitive causal factor, however re-evaluation of data by consultants drew a different conclusion, linking the industrial compound pyridine to the crustacean deaths. An unpublished study subsequently claimed that their data demonstrated pyridine to be exceptionally toxic, and that their modeling explained the coastal distribution of washups. This data was presented to a cross-party Environmental, Fisheries and Rural Affairs (EFRA) committee in the UK parliament, and led to the commissioning of an independent panel to review the data. This panel was also unable to identify a definitive cause, but found that a major role for pyridine was ‘very unlikely’. Unfortunately, the debate has been highly politicised, with misleading information aired by the two leading political parties. Here, several members of that independent review panel refute the pyridine link to the mass mortality, based on both reported data and the known chemistry and behaviour of this molecule, and highlight where the science has been misrepresented by the media.","PeriodicalId":72941,"journal":{"name":"Environmental science.

Accurate forecasting of DO is thus of great importance. This study proposed two models, including AR-RBF by leveraging the Additive Regression (AR) of Radial Basis Function (RBF) Neural Networks and MLP-RF by stacking Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and Random Forest (RF), for the prediction of daily DO with multiple forecast horizons (1-day ahead to 15-days ahead) in the Mississippi River using long-term observed dataset from the Baton Rouge station. Two input scenarios were considered: scenario A includes mean water temperature and a certain number of preceding DO values, and scenario B comprises solely the aforementioned number of preceding DO values while entirely disregarding exogenous variables. The AR-RBF and stacked MLP-RF models excel in short-term forecasting and offer sufficiently accurate predictions for medium-term horizons of up to 15 days. For instance, in 3-day ahead predictions, the RMSE amounts to 0.28 mg/L, with the MAPE hovering around 2.5% in the worst-case scenario. Similarly, for 15 days ahead forecasts, the RMSE remains below 0.93 mg/L, with the MAPE not exceeding 8.2%, even under the worst-case scenario. Both models effectively capture the extreme values and the fluctuations of DO. However, as the forecasting horizon extends, both models experience a decrease in accuracy, particularly evident for scenario B when the average water temperature is not included in the input variables. When examining longer forecasting horizons in the study, AR-RBF demonstrates a more restrained bias compared to the stacked MLP-RF model. The consistently robust performance of the models, in comparison to prior research on DO levels in US rivers, underscores their potential as more effective tools for predicting such an essential water quality parameter.","PeriodicalId":72941,"journal":{"name":"Environmental science.
