Abstract Pharmaceutical compounds, widely produced and used all around the world, are partly responsible for widespread water pollution in environment. Carbamazepine (CBZ) is an antiepileptic drug that persists environment many years. In present study, we TiO 2 /UV, nanoparticulate zero‐valent iron (NZVI), NZVI/H O treatment processes to compare efficiency of CBZ removal from water. Influence NZVI loading, H concentration, UV lamp power, matrix (distilled groundwater) on was evaluated using...

Vapor intrusion (VI) is well-known to be difficult characterize because indoor air (IA) concentrations exhibit considerable temporal and spatial variability in homes throughout impacted communities. To overcome this other limitations, most VI science has focused on subsurface processes; however there a need understand the role of aboveground processes, especially building operation, context exposure risks. This tutorial review focuses exchange rates (AERs) provides literature related AERs...

Biosorption is an innovative method to remove nonbiodegradable pollutants, such as heavy metals, from aqueous solutions using a variety of biomaterials (e.g. bacteria, fungi, algae and industrial agricultural wastes). Compared with other alternatives, these metabolically inactive nonliving biomasses microbial or floral origins are cheaper more effective in removing metallic elements, some which toxic carcinogenic. The discharge copper ions into wastewater regarded serious threat the...

Vapor intrusion (IV) exposure risks are difficult to characterize due the role of atmospheric, building and subsurface processes. This study presents a three-dimensional VI model that extends common fate transport equations incorporate wind stack effects on indoor air pressure, exchange rate (AER) contaminant concentration improve risk estimates. The incorporates three modeling programs: (1) COMSOL Multiphysics processes, (2) CFD0 atmospheric flow around building, (3) CONTAM quality....

There is a lack of vapor intrusion (VI) models that reliably account for weather conditions and building characteristics, especially at sites where active alternative pathways, such as sewer connections other preferential are present.

Nowadays an important environmental concern is to dispose of municipal wastewater sludge containing toxic heavy metals. These trace elements could be highly hazardous due their insolubility, high toxicity, bioaccumulation and carcinogenic characterization. One the latest common ways disposal use in construction materials such as concrete. The aim this study examine leaching metals from concretes sewage sludge. For purpose, concrete cubes were constructed with different percentages (0, 25,...

Abstract Hazardous waste site investigations have shown that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can be transported via sewer pipes and migrate into indoor spaces. Despite field data confirming the presence of this exposure pathway, there is lack context‐based numerical models provide guidance to characterize predict VOCs concentration in gas at vapor intrusion sites. Particularly, poses a challenge when assessing mitigating risks associated with these pathways. Therefore, model has been...
