Coarse aerosol particles containing chloride in tropical forests are significant for understanding biogeochemical cycles and atmospheric processes, with implications for environmental health and climate change mitigation. This study explored the sources of super-coarse carbonaceous aerosol particles containing chloride in a tropical savanna climate. Aerosol samples were collected from an agro-forest site in Thailand during the dry season and analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. By examining the morphology and elemental compositions of individual aerosol particles, along with employing Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) and backward trajectory analysis, potential sources were identified. The findings revealed two primary sources for the super-coarse aerosol particles: a mixture of biomass burning smoke and inorganic salts (likely from saline soil and sea salt), as well as halophilic fungal spores. FTIR analysis indicated the presence of compounds linked to biomass burning and clay minerals, influenced by prevailing northeast and southeast winds. Recommendations for future research include continued monitoring, correlation with meteorological parameters, and the application of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for more detailed visualization and confirmation of aerosol sources. © The Author(s) 2024.

Sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) generate bioelectricity from benthic sediments and thus providing both bioelectricity generation and sediment remediation. However, the high internal resistance of the cathode leads to a low power output, which requires research on cathode treatment. In this study, we explored the influence of light irradiation on bioelectricity production and nutrient removal in the SMFC system. The microcosm experiment of the SMFC system was designed with artificial illumination of 500 lux (light-SMFC) and compared with dark conditions of 15 lux (dark-SMFC), which showed that the current increases during photoperiods. The study reveals that light-illuminated SMFC consistently produced the highest voltage, with the highest voltage (553 mV) being 1.3 times higher than the dark-SMFC (440 mV). The polarization curves show a significant reduction in internal cathodic resistance under light condition, resulting in increased voltage generation. The light-SMFC exhibits the highest maximum power density of 35.93 mW/m2, surpassing the dark SMFC of 31.13 mW/m2. It was found that light illumination in the SMFC system increases oxygen availability in the cathodic region, which supports the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) process. At the same time, the high bioelectricity output contributes to the highest sediment remediation by greatly reducing the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and phosphate (PO4–P) concentrations. The study highlights the potential of light illumination in mitigating cathodic limitation to improve SMFC performance and nutrient removal. © 2024

Powdered activated carbon (PAC) is commonly used by water treatment plants to remove harmful cyanotoxins such as microcystins (MCs) produced during seasonal harmful algal blooms. MC removal by PAC depends upon the properties of the PAC, the properties of the MC variant, and the presence and properties of dissolved organic matter (DOM). To identify which of these factors has the greatest impact on the removal of MC by PAC, we evaluated the removal of four different MC variants (MC-LR, MC-LA, MC-RR and desmethylated MC-RR) by three different PAC types (wood-based, coal-blend and coal-based). The role of DOM properties was evaluated using DOM isolated from two different sources, a terrestrial source (Suwannee River Fulvic Acid, SRFA) and a microbial source (Grand Lake St Marys DOM, GLSM). The results of adsorption experiments conducted over a period of 72 h demonstrated the wood-based PAC, which had the highest surface area and mesopore volume of the PAC tested, had the highest adsorption rate and capacity for all four MC variants. Of the variants studied, neutrally charged MC-RR was adsorbed more rapidly and to a greater extent on all of the PAC types than were the other variants. Although MC-LA and MC-LR had the greatest hydrophobicity, their negative charges resulted in their being adsorbed the least. As expected, DOM inhibited microcystin adsorption to PAC. The degree of inhibition, however, did not significantly vary for the two DOM types evaluated, indicating the properties of the DOM on MC adsorption to PAC was less important than the PAC properties or MC variant properties. Overall, PAC properties were a more important factor in MC removal than were the MC properties or DOM conditions. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd

Effective municipal solid waste management (MSWM) is essential for sustainable urban development, significantly impacting environmental health, economic efficiency, and social well-being. It aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 11 (SDG11), which aims to make cities inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable by ensuring waste is safely managed from collection to disposal. This study evaluates the performance of MSWM practices across various cities in different regions, updated as of March 2023, to assess the achievement of SDG11. By reviewing published literature and conducting questionnaire surveys and key informant interviews with government authorities and service providers, data on access to managed MSW facilities were collected from 470 cities across various income-level regions to monitor MSWM progress toward SDG11 targets. Clustering algorithms and machine learning were employed to identify patterns and enhance MSWM practices across these regions, focusing on achieving SDG11. Hierarchical cluster analysis identified four clusters based on MSWM performance: high-income, upper-middle-income, lower-middle-income, and low-income regions. The developed decision-tree models provided a comprehensive analysis of effective MSW collection and disposal, achieving accuracies of approximately 75 % and 73 %, respectively. The models highlighted the importance of high collection coverage, proper disposal facilities, and robust institutional frameworks in achieving effective MSWM. The findings emphasize the need for targeted interventions and advanced analytical methods to enhance regional MSWM strategies, supporting the attainment of SDG11. © 2024 The Author(s)

Exposure to ambient air pollution component particulate matter (PM) in urban environments has been associated with adverse health effects to the exposed population. This study aimed to investigate the cytotoxic and inflammatory responses of lung A549 cells to ambient particulate matter (PM) extracts (EE) collected from a geographical site in south of city limits of Jackson, Mississippi. PM was collected from the site, extracted, and characterized for chemical composition and microscopic analysis using SEM. Following characterization, the EE was used to treat A549 cells, and various cellular responses were assessed. Our SEM analysis of EE indicated the presence of micrometer-sized particles, and elemental analysis indicated the presence of elements such as C, Si, Fe, S, N, P, and Ca. Cell viability decreased in a dose- and timedependent manner following exposure to EE. Inflammatory gene IL-1β, chemokine CCL-18 and MIP-1, and transcription factor NF-кB were upregulated by EE. EE also increased the level of ROS and mitochondria. In conclusion, our data indicates that EE is cytotoxic, inflammatory, and an oxidant to lung cells Also, the findings of the present study highlight the potential health risks associated with exposure to air pollution and inflammatory lung disease. © 2024 IAE All rights reserved.

Conventional concrete significantly affects the environment due to high CO2 emission into the atmosphere during the production process. In order to improve concrete performance and arrest the incidence of global warming, the use of additive materials for cement replacement has been promoted worldwide. This study was designed to investigate the mechanical properties of high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (HFRC) produced using rice husk ash (RHA) and hybrid fiber (HF) in accordance with the densified mixture design algorithm (DMDA) mix design method. Samples were produced using RHA as a direct replacement for cement at 10%, 20%, and 30%. HF, comprising steel and polypropylene fibers, was added (by volume) to the 20% RHA group mixture to improve the HFRC sample properties. Based on the experimental results, higher RHA contents had a generally negative effect on the fresh properties of the HFRC mixtures. Compressive strength values ranged from 53 to 72 MPa with various RHA and HF content. RHA replacement levels up to 20% had an insignificant effect on the strength development and dynamic modulus of the HFRC samples. However, the addition of HF improved splitting tensile strength, flexural strength, and dynamic modulus remarkably at all curing ages. Furthermore, the 91-day drying shrinkage was in the ranges of 0.032%–0.039% and 0.023%–0.034% using different RHA and HF levels, respectively. Increasing both RHA and HF contents significantly reduced drying shrinkage in the samples. Multivariable regression was also performed, clarifying that all tested results were consistent and had good correlations. The results of this study also provide a potentially effective use for abundantly available industrial waste products such as fly ash (FA) and RHA to promote the production of greener and more sustainable concrete. © IMechE 2023.

This study investigates the ureolysis and microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) characteristics of Sporosarcina pasteurii and Lysinibacillus sphaericus under varying incubation and reaction conditions. A series of batch MICP experiments were conducted to assess the effects of incubation duration and pH, bacterial cell density, and reagent (i.e., urea and calcium ion) concentrations on ureolysis and CaCO3 precipitation characteristics. The findings indicate that both bacteria exhibit higher urease activity after 24 hours of incubation compared to 48 hours, regardless of incubation pH. S. pasteurii exhibits maximum specific urease activity at an alkaline pH (pH 9.0), whereas L. sphaericus reaches peak activity at a neutral pH (pH 7.2). Across six incubation conditions for each bacterium, S. pasteurii exhibits greater sensitivity in specific urease activity, while L. sphaericus maintains a more consistent ureolysis performance. In terms of cell density, a lower OD600 (~0.1) enhances specific urease activity and early-stage mineralization efficiency, whereas a higher OD600 (~1.0) accelerates overall CaCO3 precipitation, enhances terminal-stage mineralization efficiency, and promotes the prolonged presence of vaterite. High reagent concentrations (1.0 and 1.5 M) enhance specific urease activity and CaCO3 precipitation rates and lead to over 93% of vaterite formation, while low reagent concentration (0.3 M) favors calcite-dominant precipitation over time. These findings provide insights into evaluating and optimizing MICP performance under varying incubation and reaction conditions. © 2025, The Authors. All rights reserved.

The Dependence in Microcystin Removal with Powdered Activated Carbon on Variant Properties, Carbon Properties, and Dissolved Organic Matter

SSRN

引用

SSRN 2023年

Microcystins (MCs) are a class of harmful cyanotoxins produced during harmful algal blooms (HABs), and their presence demands mitigation strategies. Powdered activated carbon (PAC) adsorption is an effective treatment method for MC removal, but its efficacy is influenced by several factors. For example, MC removal varies depending upon the properties of the PAC and MC variant. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is also known to impact MC removal by PAC. To enhance the removal of MC by PAC, it is not only necessary to investigate the individual impact of these factors but also to consider them in an integrated manner as the importance of each of these factors compared to one another is not clear. Thus, in this study we evaluated the relative importance of PAC properties, MC variant properties, and the presence of DOM on MC removal. Kinetic adsorption experiments were conducted over a period of 72 hours with four MC variants (MC-LR, MC-LA, MC-RR and desmethylated MC-RR) and three PAC types (wood-based, coal-blend and coal-based) that had different properties. The role of DOM was investigated using two different DOM sources (microbial DOM and terrestrial DOM). The results demonstrated wood-based PAC, which had the highest surface area and mesopore volume of the PAC tested, had the highest adsorption rate and capacity for all four MC variants. Of the variants studied, neutrally charged MC-RR was adsorbed more rapidly and to a greater extent on all of the PAC types than were the other variants. As expected, DOM inhibited microcystin adsorption to PAC. The degree of inhibition, however, did not significantly vary for the two DOM types evaluated and the magnitude of inhibition decreased as the DOM concentration increased. Overall, the PAC properties were a more important factor in MC removal than were the MC properties or DOM conditions. © 2023, The Authors. All rights reserved.
