The structural composition and functional group changes in fulvic acid (FA) at various landfills were studied using ultraviolet and infrared spectroscopy. The electron transfer ability of FA and its ability to degrade pentachlorophenol (PCP) were also studied considering the various landfills. The results showed that the use of MR-1 as an electron donor and the simultaneous addition of fulvic acid in different stages as an electron shuttle can significantly increase the degradation rate of PCP, leading it beyond 80%. Due to the different redox properties of fulvic acid at the different landfill stages, the degradation of PCP has different reduction conversion abilities. Landfill fulvic acid is able to reduce and transform PCP because of its electron transfer ability. These functions are all conducive to promoting PCP reductive dechlorination.

To explore the source information and composition characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in different regions of water bodies in northern cities, considering the urban water system of Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province as an example, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and three-dimensional fluorescence parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) were used to explain the optical parameters, abundance, and proportion of different components of DOM in water bodies of different regions. The results showed that: ① The concentrations of NO-N, NO-N, NH-N, TN, TP, and COD in the upstream were significantly lower than those in urban water bodies and downstream (<0.01), and TSI increased after the water entered the city.

Our recent study demonstrated that fulvic and humic acids are the major contributors to the adsorption of phenoxyalkanoic acid herbicides in soils. At very low pH, the neutral forms of these herbicides are bound directly to fulvic and humic acids, whereas at higher pH, their anionic forms are adsorbed mainly via bridges created by Al species. The number of active sorption sites associated with Al species complexed with fulvic acids is pH-dependent, whereas the number of corresponding sites in humic acids is pH-independent.

The development of materials for the remediation of the environment from solid waste represents an effective utilization strategy. This study presents a novel phosphorus-based slow-release soil agent (SLPs) developed through acid activation of phosphorus tailings. SLPs aim to improve soil properties by gradually releasing phosphorus (P), reducing Pb mobility, and preventing heavy metal contamination.
