Abstract Bisphenol A (BPA), a widely used industrial chemical, is notorious for its bio-accumulative persistence and toxicity, posing significant threats to environmental public health. The presence of BPA in wastewater effluents has become growing concern, necessitating effective removal techniques. Current treatment methods often fall short addressing the complexity contamination under different conditions, which highlights urgent need innovative solutions. One promising approach involves...
Environmental context Perfluorinated compounds are emerging organic contaminants recently detected in various environmental matrices and remain largely unregulated. Among these matrices, air is the least studied one due to analytical challenges. This review explores trends analysing perfluorinated with use of bioindicators highlights future research needs address existing gaps detection monitoring. Abstract (PFCs) persistent pollutants extensive industrial applications, including...
The inhibition of mild steel corrosion in hydrochloric acid solution by ciprofloxacin drug as an eco-friendly and commercially available inhibitor was studied at room temperature weight loss technique. It found that the test has a promising inhibitory action against medium investigated. efficiency to increase with corresponding concentration inhibitor. also adsorption well process followed first-order kinetics obeyed Langmuir’s isotherm.
Metagenomics is the study of genetic information, including sequences and genomes microorganisms present in an environment. Since 1998, full-scale application this technique to environmental chemistry has brought significant advances characterization nature chemical composition/distribution contaminants matrices contaminated and/or remediated sites. This been critical selection contributed significantly success biological treatment over years. gone through different phases development, which...
Abstract The biofertilizer quality of anaerobically codigested agroindustrial residues from brewer’s spent grain and palm oil mill effluent was evaluated after supplementation with different livestock manure in order to validate its use as organic fertilizer. Manure assay performed using animal manure-inoculum demonstrate the influence inoculum-type on nutrient status, plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) other attributes resultant digestate. In addition elevated levels (K > P Ca Mg S...
The concepts of sustainability and sustainable chemistry have attracted increasing attention in recent years, being great importance to the younger generation. In this Viewpoint Article, we share how early-career chemists can contribute transformation their discipline. We identify ways which they engage catalyse action for change. This article does not attempt answer questions about most promising or pressing areas driving research chemical innovation context sustainability. Instead, want...
Total concentration, speciation, sources and potential health problems of Pb, Cd, Cu, Fe Ni in a dumpsite soil within Calabar Municipality were evaluated this work. The influence organic matter pH the studied on metal availability was also assessed. Results obtained indicated that; mean concentration all metals higher than Control their recommended limits for Nigerian as well. Metal speciation revealed that, Pb existed mainly reducible form; Cd occurred acid extractable fraction, Cu...
Ultisols are acidic soils found in humid climates and known for poor fertility. Crude oil impacted ultisols, therefore, require special treatment measures to account nutrient loss during treatment. In this paper, we report the utilization of a food waste, aqueous extracts waterleaf (Talinum triangulare), as plant-derived surfactant wash simulated crude oil-contaminated soils. The before after washing were monitored microbial loads, parameters, physicochemical characteristics, total petroleum...
The development of a visible-light-driven, reusable, and long-lasting catalyst for the heterogeneous photo-Fenton process is critical practical application in treatment contaminated water. This study focuses on synthesizing visible-light-driven heterogenous bio-templated magnetic copper oxide composite (Fe3O4/CuO/C) by two-step bio-templating hydrothermal processes. prepared was characterized field emission-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy...
