Behnia Bitaraf et al.
To remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water, this study focused on synthesizing a sawdust-based adsorbent through KMnO4 oxidation and coating m-phenylenediamine (mPD) onto the sawdust's surface. The resulting sawdust/MnO...

Nitrification-driven chloramine decay kinetics have largely been unquantified in premise plumbing, which is particularly vulnerable to opportunistic pathogen growth. Here, we carried out complementary experiments in an at-scale premise plum...
Community-Driven Water Quality Assessment Following the 2023 Maui Wildfires: Insights into Post-Fire Drinking Water Contamination and Resilient Disaster Response [0.03%]
Liza A McLatchy,Andrew J Whelton,Kexin C Rong et al.
Liza A McLatchy et al.
The August 2023 wildfires in Maui, Hawai'i, damaged or destroyed more than 2200 structures and displaced thousands of people. Residents in the towns of Kula and Lahaina were put under do-not-use drinking-water advisories due to the potentia...
New Insights into the In Situ Fenton-like Process by Copper(II)-hydroxylamine Coupling: Reactive Species, Applications, and Limitations [0.03%]
Simone Pellegrino,Pablo Martínez-Marco,Javier Moreno-Andrés et al.
Simone Pellegrino et al.
This work studied the effect of pH, [O2], H2O2 external addition, chelating agents, common anions, transition metals, and produced toxicity, in the process Cu-(II)/NH2OH (employing benzoate as a probe). It was observed that (i) acidificatio...
Flowing Fibers: Subsurface Sampling Is Key to Understanding Natural and Plastic Textile Fiber Pollution in Rivers [0.03%]
流动的纤维:亚表面取样是理解河流中的天然和塑料纺织纤维污染的关键因素
Harley Nicholls,Catherine Sanders,David B Ryves et al.
Harley Nicholls et al.
There is a pressing need to understand the pathways of textile fibers as anthropogenic pollutants in the environment. Current efforts to understand textile fiber pollution in waterways have relied on surface-sampling methodologies without c...
Divergent Bacterial Communities in Water and Sediment of Chlorinated Drinking Water Storage Tanks [0.03%]
储水罐中自来水氯化对水中和沉积物中细菌群落的影响
Eva Bridges,Sienna Bircher,Kara Cunningham et al.
Eva Bridges et al.
Properly operated and maintained drinking water distribution system (DWDS) storage tanks are crucial for allocating safe drinking water, but varying operational processes and infrequent maintenance can result in water quality degradation, i...
Removal of Selenium Oxyanions from Aqueous Solutions by Ion Exchange: Equilibrium, Kinetics, and Mechanistic Modeling [0.03%]
离子交换法去除水溶液中硒 oxyanions的平衡、动力学及机理模型研究
Z Zeng,Z Shen,J D Einkauf et al.
Z Zeng et al.
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient but toxic at high concentrations, posing challenges for water treatment. This study investigated the removal of selenate (SeO4 2-) and selenite (SeO3 2-) using the strong-base anion-exchange resin...
Effect-Based Assessment of the Quality and Potential Presence of Hazardous Chemical Pollutants in Drinking and Potable Water in Mexico City [0.03%]
基于效应的评估墨西哥城饮用水中危险化学污染物的质量及潜在存在性

Effect-based methods (EBMs) are bioanalytical tools detecting bioactivity of chemical mixtures on different toxicological end points. EBMs have become increasingly important for water quality assessment and monitoring, particularly in Europ...
Characterization of the Potential Long-Term Impact from Sedimentary PFAS at a Historically Contaminated Textile Waste Site [0.03%]
表征历史上受污染的纺织废物场地沉积性PFAS的潜在长期影响特征
Jarod Snook,Jitka Becanova,Simon Vojta et al.
Jarod Snook et al.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are pervasive pollutants at historically contaminated sites throughout the United States and beyond. Two such sites in Rhode Island, USA, are textile-mill-associated waste retention ponds known to ...
