From wastewater to clean water: Recent advances on the removal of metronidazole, ciprofloxacin, and sulfamethoxazole antibiotics from water through adsorption and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs)

Author(s): Gahrouei AE; Vakili S; Zandifar A; Pourebrahimi S;

Antibiotics released into water sources pose significant risks to both human health and the environment. This comprehensive review meticulously examines the ecotoxicological impacts of three prevalent antibiotics-ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, and sulfametho ...

Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation as a Bioremediation Technique for Mining Waste

Author(s): Wilcox SM; Mulligan CN; Neculita CM;

Mining waste represents a global issue due to its potential of generating acidic or alkaline leachate with high concentrations of metals and metalloids (metal(loid)s). Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is an engineering tool used for ...

Utilization of a biosurfactant foam/nanoparticle mixture for treatment of oil pollutants in soil

Author(s): Vu KA; Mulligan CN;

Oil contamination has become a primary environmental concern due to increased exploration, production, and use. When oil enters the soil, it may attach or adsorb to soil particles and stay in the soil for an extended period, contaminating the soil and surro ...

Remediation of oil-contaminated soil using Fe/Cu nanoparticles and biosurfactants

Author(s): Vu KA; Mulligan CN;

BSTRACTOil (or petroleum), consisting of a mixture of hydrocarbons, can be leaked from oil exploration, production, and use. Due to their complex mixture and interaction with the subsurface soil and water, they are hard to treat and can become a significant ...

Rethinking microbial infallibility in the metagenomics era

Author(s): O' Malley MA; Walsh DA;

The 'principle of microbial infallibility' was a mainstay of microbial physiology and environmental microbiology in earlier decades. This principle asserts that wherever there is an energetic gain to be made from environmental resources, microorgani ...

Exploration of nanocellulose washing agent for the green remediation of phenanthrene-contaminated soil.

Author(s): Yin J, Huang G, An C, Zhang P, Xin X, Feng R

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are hazardous contaminants existing ubiquitously in polluted soil. In this study, using nanocellulose (CNC) fluid as an eco-friendly agent was proposed for the first time in the remediation of phenanthrene (PHE) contaminated ...
