Unpuzzling spatio-vertical and multi-media patterns of aniline accelerators/antioxidants in an urban estuary.

Aniline accelerators and antioxidants (AAs) are high-production-volume industrial additives that have recently attracted emerging concern given their ubiquity in environmental compartments and the associated (eco)toxic effects. Nonetheless, available information on the multi-media behavior of AAs and their transformation products (TPs) remains scarce. Therefore, we determined the residues of twenty-four AA(TP)s in paired dissolved phases (i.

Community pattern of potential phenanthrene (PHE) degrading bacteria in PHE contaminated soil revealed by C-DNA stable isotope probing.

Quantification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in contaminated soil and identification of potential PAH degraders are essential for comprehending their environmental fate and conducting bioremediation. However, the microbial population responsible for the breakdown of phenanthrene (PHE) in polluted soil environments is frequently disregarded. In this study, via DNA-stable-isotope probing (DNA-SIP), we found that soil microbiota likely plays a crucial part in the PHE degradation.

Ubiquity of Amino Accelerators and Antioxidants in Road Dust from Multiple Land Types: Targeted and Nontargeted Analysis.

Amino accelerators and antioxidants (AAL/Os), as well as their degradation derivatives, are industrial additives of emerging concern due to their massive production and use (particularly in rubber tires), pervasiveness in the environment, and documented adverse effects. This study delineated their inter-regional variations in road dust collected from urban/suburb, agricultural, and forest areas, and screened for less-studied AAL/O analogues with high-resolution mass spectrometry. 1,3-Diphenylguanidine (DPG; median concentration: 121 ng/g) and -(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-'-phenyl--phenylenediamine quinone (6PPD-Q; 9.

Amino accelerators and antioxidants in sediments from the Dong Nai River System, Vietnam: Distribution and influential factors.

Amino accelerators and antioxidants (AAL/Os) have become a suite of contaminants of emerging concern recently due to the accumulating evidence for their environmental occurrence and associated toxic potential. Nevertheless, data on sedimentary deposition of AAL/Os has remained scarce, particularly for regions beyond the North America. In the present study, we elucidated spatial distribution of fifteen AAL/Os and five AAO transformation products (AAOTPs) in seventy-seven sediments from the Dong Nai River System (DNRS), Vietnam.

Simulation and risk assessment of arsenic by Hydrus-3D and CalTOX in a typical brownfield site.

Accurate quantification of arsenic migration and accumulation in brownfield site is critical for environmental management and soil remediation. However, the researches simulating arsenic in brownfield site in China are limited due to sparse data and complex migration behaviors. In this study, we simulated historic arsenic contamination using Hydrus-3D in an abandoned brownfield site in Hebei, China, from 1972 to 2019.

Amino antioxidants: A review of their environmental behavior, human exposure, and aquatic toxicity.

Amino antioxidants (AAOs), a suite of emerging organic contaminants, have been widely used in numerous industrial and commercial products to inhibit oxidation and corrosion. Recently, their environmental ubiquity, health risks, bioaccumulative and toxic potential have led to mounting public concern. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge on the production and usage, environmental occurrence, bioavailability, human exposure, and aquatic toxicity of representative AAOs, and provides suggestions for future research directions.

An improved hybrid model on source-risk of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon in soils of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration.

The source, exposure and risks of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil environments are of great importance to evaluate soil quality. However, understanding the risks of specific sources of PAHs in soils remains poorly understood. In this study, we determined the source, exposure and risks of PAHs in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration.
