The role of microplastics as a carrier in the bioaccumulation hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) soil organisms is poorly understood. Two environmentally relevant scenarios, including earthworm Eisenia fetida exposed to contaminated amended with clean (S1) and introduced precontaminated (S2), were simulated estimate importance bioaccumulation. Three polychlorinated biphenyls polyethylene particles different sizes employed. under S1 scenario significantly decreased biphenyl congener...
The potential of microplastics to act as a vector for anthropogenic contaminants is rising concern. However, directly quantitatively determining the effects has been rarely studied. Here, we present dual-dosing method that simulates chemical bioaccumulation from soil and simultaneously, wherein unlabeled hydrophobic organic (HOCs) were spiked in their respective isotope-labeled reference compounds on polyethylene microplastics. comparison bioavailability, i.e., freely dissolved concentration...
Organophosphate esters (OPEs) have been in use as flame retardants for many decades, with their actual usage varying over time. Knowledge of the emission history OPEs is valuable improving our prediction environmental loadings and associated risks. In this study, concentrations compositions 10 were measured three dated sediment cores from Palos Verdes Shelf (PVS) off coast Los Angeles, which has impacted by wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents a century. The total OPE varied 0.68 to...
Abstract In light of the corrosion failure observed in liquid sulfur pool at a purification plant characterized by high content northeastern Sichuan Province, an analysis was conducted on structure, products, and mechanisms to ascertain their elemental composition underlying causes. Subsequently, appropriate protection measures were proposed. The results show that structure consists 200 thick C40 heat resistant concrete layer, waterproof insulation layer acid anticorrosive is cast with...
The risk assessment and source identification for potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in soils, particularly agricultural soils from megacities, are significant environmental protection pollution control. In this study, an intensive sampling (4127 topsoil samples 994 subsoil samples) was conducted the Shunyi District, Beijing, which is a suburban area with extensive cropland cover has been impacted by megacity over several decades. Concentrations distributions of 8 PTEs, including V, Cr, Ni,...
The mining of deep-sea manganese nodules has been a topic interest since J.L. Mero undertook his preliminary studies in the 1960s to evaluate prospects for nodules. Despite great deal investment over more than 40 years, there still no successful attempt mine on commercial scale. One major problems is that cannot be brought surface with necessary amounts recoverable nickel, cobalt and zinc warrant initial high this operation. It therefore appears short term, Co-rich Mn crusts will not mined...
