Due to overgrowth in population, industrialization and civilization, demands for water are
increasing geometrically. Therefore, alternative sources of water are required and …

In urban environments, particularly areas under reconstruction, metals, organic pollutants
(OP), and microplastics (MP), are released in large amounts due to heavy traffic. Road …

In just a few years, chemists have significantly changed their approach to the synthesis of
organic molecules in the laboratory and industry. Researchers are encouraged to approach …

This work investigates adsorption of metal ions on Sphagnum peat from solutions with
environmentally relevant concentrations of metals. The peat moss is intended as an …

Landfill leachates are repeatedly found contaminated with organic pollutants, such as
alkylphenols (APs), phthalates and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) at levels …

In recent years, functionalized hydrophobic materials have attracted considerable interest as
oil removal agents. This investigation has applied plasma polymerization as a novel method …

Untreated stormwater is a major source of microplastics, organic pollutants, metals, and
nutrients in urban water courses. The aim of this study was to improve the knowledge about …

Here we present multiproxy inorganic geochemical records from a peat core (ZK5) from the
Dajiuhu Basin in central China to investigate peatland deposition processes and …

Trace element concentrations in the Roñanzas peat bog record reveal a contribution of
natural processes but the influence of anthropogenic factors predominates in the last two …

The use of agricultural wastes (groundnut shell, orange and banana peel, rice husk, coconut
husk and Wawa tree saw dust) as potential cost-effective adsorbent for heavy metal removal …
