The study investigates Greek consumers’ beliefs and their assessment of the risks associated with consuming potatoes they perceive as contaminated with pesticide residues, aiming to understand the relationship between perceived risk and actual...
The general spread of water safety awareness and enforcement often masks the escalating risks of emerging contaminants (ECs) that evade standard detection and monitoring techniques. Traditional monitoring infrastructures depend heavily on localized l...
There has been a decline in the age at which girls experience menarche worldwide. Research suggests that exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals is linked to negative health consequences, including early onset of menarche. This systematic review e...
Rapid urbanisation and intensified poultry production have increased chicken feather waste (CFW), posing environmental concerns due to its recalcitrant keratin content. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Actinomycetes, specifically Strepto...
In the last 32 years (1993–2024), the application of electric fields in soil management (soil electrokinetic, SEK) has undergone several stages of optimization and intensification. SEK has used both alternating current (AC) and direct current (...
Kitchen waste management strongly affects greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, especially in small municipalities with limited treatment options. This study assessed alternative strategies for Aya Town, Japan, by integrating life cycle assessment (LCA) wi...
Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are persistent environmental pollutants widely used in industrial applications due to their thermal stability and chemical resistance. However, their persistence in the environment and potential health risk...
Environmental Protection Plans (EPPs) are vital for mitigating the socio-ecological impacts of quarry operations, especially in emerging economies like Thailand, where rapid industrialization often intensifies air, water, noise, and land degradation....
For Sentinel-5P products, the European Space Agency (ESA) validates the data collected by the TROPOMI instrument onboard the Sentinel-5P satellite using a network of ground stations and various techniques such as ZSL-DOAS, Pandora, and MAXDOAS [...]
Monitoring air quality is crucial on a global level. However, it is important to acknowledge the limitations of satellite-derived data in measuring gas concentrations. The Sentinel-5 satellite estimates pollutant density within an atmospheric column...
Cyanuric acid (CYA) is widely used as a chlorine stabilizer in swimming pools, but concentrations above 75 mg L−1 cause overstabilization and loss of disinfection capacity. This study evaluated CYA removal by advanced oxidation processes, inclu...
There is an urgent need for an updated and relevant soil information system (SIS) to sustainably use and manage the land across Africa. Accurate data on soil pollution is essential for effective decision-making in soil health monitoring and managemen...
The alarming increase in the use of chemically driven pesticides for enhanced crop productivity has severely affected soil fertility, ecosystem balance, and consumer health. Inadequate handling protocols and ineffective remediation strategies have le...
When driving at highway speeds, the airtightness and ventilation mode of the cabin can significantly affect the in-cabin air quality. Accordingly, this study conducted on-road driving experiments along four highways in Tainan City, Taiwan, to examine...
South Korea faces high levels of air pollution and is currently not on track to meet its transport sector 2030 and 2050 greenhouse gas emission reduction targets primarily due to infrastructural limitations. This study examines the potential health b...
Introduction: Increased exposure to air pollution poses a burden to society and healthcare systems worldwide, with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Indoor concentrations of air pollutants, such as particulate matter, are a public health con...
Soil contamination with heavy metals (HM) poses a risk to human health and can impact different soil functions. This study aimed to determine the influence of heavy metal pollution on the physical and physicochemical characteristics of the two profil...
Increased precipitation and extreme weather due to climate change can remobilize recent and legacy environmental contaminants from soil, sediment, and sewage overflows. Heavy metals are naturally distributed in Earth’s crust, but anthropogenic...
