Ecological toxicity of microplastics, aluminum and their combination to ectomycorrhizal fungi (Lactarius delicious)
Environmental Toxicology and Biogeochemistry of Ecosystems
To investigate the combined toxic effects of microplastics and aluminum (Al) on ectomycorrhizal fungi, Lactobacillus delicious (Ld) was selected as the experimental subject to conduct research on monodisperse polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) (0, 20, 100, 200 mg L-1) and Al3+ (40 mg L-1) single...
Study on the removal performance of modified Enteromorpha-immobilized bacterial agent in oil contaminated seawater
Water and Wastewater Treatment
Compared with free bacteria, immobilized bacteria have a higher oil degradation rate, making them highly promising for the bioremediation of offshore oil pollution. In our study, preparation conditions of modified Enteromorpha-immobilized bacterial agent were optimized by response surface method. A...
Human Health Risk Assessment of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn through Consumption of Raw goat's Milk in Jijel province (Algeria).
Hazardous Substances and Risk Analysis
Contamination of the food chain by toxic metals is one of the main concerns for human health. Milk is part of a balanced diet; essential for proper growth, but can also contains hazardous chemicals and contaminants including heavy metals which can be a risk for health. The aim of this study is to...
Management of flood and separating damage from environmental effects using Bayesian convolutional neural network
Floods, Droughts and Water scarcity
Flood management is the act of determining the frequency, magnitude, and duration of flood episodes based on the elements of a river basin that may be monitored. Floods endanger human lives and inflict significant property damage. It is essential for creating suitable flood risk management plans...
Fluoride Contamination of Groundwater in a Coastal Region- A Growing Environmental Pollution Threat
Water Resources Management
The research work's main objective is to correctly examine and find out the proper hydro-geochemistry of groundwater during the dry and wet seasons and hence evaluate it’s quality in India, Tamil Nadu state's Thirukkazhukundram Block. Data from two seasons-the "Pre-monsoon" in August 2016 and the...
Microbial synthesis of eco-friendly polylactate plastic from low-cost agro-industrial wastes as an alternative to petrochemical-based plastic
Biowaste
Bioplastics made from renewable resources, such as contemporary biomass, have been developed more quickly as a result of global pollution from plastics made from petroleum, but it is still unclear how these materials will affect ecosystems. A common biopolymer that will make up 33% of the...
Incorporating of waste from sugar industry and cement industry in concrete
Global Environmental Change
As the production of biomass waste from agroindustry grows across the world, a large amount of agro-based ashes ends up in polluting land. India produced 405.4 million tones of sugarcane in 2019, with a capacity of 105.4 million tonnes of bagasse and 2.5 million tonnes of SBA. The utilization of...
Simultaneous degradation efficiency of C-MFCs for three pollutants in aquaculture wastewater
Water and Wastewater Treatment
Chlorella microbial fuel cells may be an alternative technology for wastewater treatment. Using microalgae and activated sludge as raw materials, a C-MFCs was established, and the effects of different nitrogen and phosphorus ratios in the influent on the electrochemical performance of C-MFCs and the...
Flood susceptibility in urban environment using multi-layered neural network model from satellite imagery sources
Urban environment and health
Recently, there has been a rise in research based on data-driven based machine learning models to address the issue of processing speed posed by various physiological simulations. The majority of studies, however, have concentrated on creating models for particular water sources, drainage systems...
Odour emissions from a municipal solid waste dumping area that are at the moderate stage of disintegration
Solid Waste Management
Odour is a major concern as they are termed hazardous to the surroundings as well as life forms when they are exposed to the environment. Odour emission is also one of the indicators of environmental changes that impact the environment. Among the different sources of odour emission, in the dumping...
