Air pollution by particulate matter (PM) is one of the main threats to human health,
particularly in large cities where pollution levels are continually exceeded. According to their …

In the last years, there is great attention paid to the determination of polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) in different environmental matrices. Extensive reviews on PAHs …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are worldwide pollutants produced mainly during
incomplete combustion and pyrolysis of organic substances. PAH derivatives are …

It is unclear how the properties of biochar control its ability to sorb metals. In this work,
physicochemical properties of a variety of biochars, made from four types of feedstock at …

The aim of this paper is the presentation of the current state-of-the-art about the

Spontaneous combustion of coal is a well-known phenomena around the globe. Apart from
the coal itself, burning coal-shales is becoming a problem in the South African coal mines …

Urban road dusts are carriers of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) and are therefore
considered to be a major source of contamination of other environmental compartments and …
