Preparation of blast furnace dust particle electrodes and their application in synergistic electrochemical degradation of saline polyvinyl alcohol wastewater
Environ Pollut. 2023 Sep 16:122574. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122574. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPolyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been widely used as a water-soluble plastic in laundry and dish detergent pods, yet wastewater contaminated with PVA is too difficult to be treated due to its high salinity and foaming. Here, we fabricated blast furnace dust (BFD) particle electrodes, and developed a three-dimensional electrocatalytic system (3DEC) to treat saline PVA wastewater. The optimum preparation condition for BFD particle electrode was iron carbon ratio of 2:1 doping with TiO2. The optimal parameters of 3DECs for PVA wast...

The aggregated biofilm dominated by Delftia tsuruhatensis enhances the removal efficiency of 2,4-dichlorophenol in a bioelectrochemical system
This study employed a single chamber microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) with two three-dimensional electrodes for removing a typical organic contaminant, 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) from groundwater, which inoculated with anaerobic bacteria derived from sewage treatment plant. Compared with the single biodegradation system without electrodes, the three-dimensional electrodes with a high surface enabled an increase of alpha diversity of the microbial community (increased by 52.6% in Shannon index), and provided adaptive ecological niche for more bacteria. The application of weak voltage (0.6 V) furtherly optimized the microbial...

Does the environmental protection tax reduce environmental pollution? Evidence from a quasi-natural experiment in China
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29898-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe environmental protection tax (EPT) is an important environmental policy in China. However, it remains unclear whether the EPT has reduced environmental pollution effectively since its implementation in 2018. Based on the panel data of 229 prefecture-level cities in China during 2015-2019 and the difference-in-differences (DID) model, this study empirically assesses the causal effect of the EPT on environmental pollution. It is found that the EPT has a significantly negative effect on industrial sulfur dioxide (SO2) a...

Rotenone nanoparticles based on mesoporous silica to improve the stability, translocation and insecticidal activity of rotenone
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29842-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNanotechnology has been widely applied for pesticide carriers, which is an important way to improve the utilization, stability, and sustained release of pesticides. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are a nanomaterial with adjustable particle and pore sizes, with a high specific surface area and good biocompatibility. Rotenone is a non-systemic botanical insecticide that is easily degraded in the environment. We used a modified soft-template method to prepare MSNs, in which rotenone was loaded using the solvent evap...

Prenatal PM2.5 exposure increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes: evidence from meta-analysis of cohort studies
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29700-5. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAdverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) are a significant cause of fetal death. A wide range of maternal psychological, social, and environmental factors may contribute to these outcomes. Mounting epidemiological studies have indicated that PM2.5 may result in these unfavorable consequences. Previously published meta-analyses have been updated and extended. Cohort studies were searched from three databases (up to July 24, 2023), and their quality was assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Publication bias was examined by Eg...

Characterization of microplastics in the atmosphere of megacity Tehran (Iran)
In this study, the characteristics of ambient airborne microplastics were investigated in Tehran to obtain insights into their origins. For this purpose, sampling operations took place at locations with different backgrounds in summer and autumn by using TSP and PM10 high-volume samplers. As a result of microscopic analysis and Raman spectroscopy, the color, shape, number, size, and type of microplastic particles were investigated. Seven types of chemical structures were identified in the particles, among which polypropylene (18.7%) in summer and polystyrene (20%) in autumn had the dominant share. The average number of par...

Analysis of critical peak electricity price optimization model considering coal consumption rate of power generation side
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29754-5. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAs a flexible electricity pricing mechanism, critical peak pricing (CPP) is one of the important means of demand response under the electricity market. The existing CPP research does not take into account the carbon emission problem of units and weakens the difference between the use of terminal loads on critical peak days and non-critical peak days in the establishment of electricity price model, so this paper studies the feedback mechanism of CPP on coal consumption of power generation side units and proposes a dynamic...

Dipropyl ammonium ionic liquids to prepare Ti/RuO < sub > 2 < /sub > -Sb < sub > 2 < /sub > O < sub > 4 < /sub > anodes at different calcination temperatures
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29742-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe development of technologies capable of producing efficient and economically viable anodes is essential for the electrochemical treatment of water contaminated with complex organic pollutants. In this context, the use of ionic liquids as solvents to prepare mixed metal oxide (MMO) anodes has proven to be an up-and-coming alternative. Here, we analyze the influence of the temperature of calcination (300, 350, and 400 ºC) on the production of Ti(RuO2)0.8-(Sb2O4)0.2 anodes made using the thermal decomposition method usi...
