Soil is a vital life supporting system of the Planet Earth. However, it has been estimated that around 25% the global soils are highly degraded and 44% are moderately degraded mainly due to the pollution of metals and ...

The contamination of aqueous systems is of global concern. It is extensively known that contaminants of organic, inorganic, and microbiological origin adversely affect water basins, causing environmental damages and numerous ...

Indirect pollution is responsible for most of the environmental issues in the marine ecosystem. Marine systems are polluted by metals, oil, pesticides, radionuclides, gasoline additives and other substances that pose several ...

Coastal regions are subjected to degradation due to anthropogenic pollution. Effluentsloaded with variable concentrations of heavy metal, persistent organic pollutant, as wellas nutrients are discharged in coastal areas ...

Nanosized magnetite has emerged as an adsorbent of pollutants in water remediation. Nanoadsorbents include magnetic iron oxide and its modifiers/stabilizers, such as carbon, silica, clay, organic moieties (polymers, ...

The addition of nutrients and/or soil bulking agents is used in bioremediation to increase microbial activity in contaminated soils. For this purpose, some studies have assessed the effectiveness of vinasse in the ...

Perchlorate is a persistent pollutant, generated via natural and anthropo genic processes, that possesses a high potential for endocrine disruption in humans and biota. It inhibits iodine fixation, a major reason for ...
