Electron beam irradiation technology: A new frontier in environmental pollution control
With the worsening global environmental pollution, traditional pollution control methods face numerous challenges in terms of efficiency, cost and sustainability. As an emerging, efficient and eco-friendly technology, electron beam irradiation technology (EBIT) has attracted increasing attention from both academia and industry in recent years. This review systematically introduces the fundamental principles of EBIT and its primary applications in environmental pollution control, with a focus on recent research progress in wastewater treatment, air purification, solid waste degradation and heavy metal removal. EBIT offers significant advantages, including rapid reactions, easy operation and environmental friendliness. By utilizing the ionization and excitation effects induced by high-energy electron beams, this technology effectively degrades organic pollutants, removes heavy metal ions and inactivates harmful pathogenic microorganisms. Furthermore, this paper provides an in-depth analysis of the major challenges hindering the practical application of EBIT, such as high equipment costs, insufficient technological maturity, and limitations in large-scale implementation. Future research directions are also proposed to address these challenges. Through this review, readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of the significant value of EBIT in environmental protection, providing insights for its further development and practical application. Ultimately, this work aims to contribute to ecological improvement and sustainable development.
期刊介绍:
Water Research, along with its open access companion journal Water Research X, serves as a platform for publishing original research papers covering various aspects of the science and technology related to the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. The audience targeted by the journal comprises biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists. The scope of the journal include:
•Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management;
•Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure;
•Drinking water treatment and distribution;
•Potable and non-potable water reuse;
•Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment;
•Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions;
•Contaminants (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment;
•Anthropogenic impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution;
•Environmental restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation;
•Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts;
•Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle;
•Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.
