Six months following discharge from a detoxication center, almost half of the 522 men studied were arrested, more than half were readmitted to detoxication centers, more than a third entered residential treatment and a quarter began outpatient treatment.

Water and ion transport in nanochannels is crucial for membrane-based technology in biological systems. 2D materials, especially graphene oxide (GO), the most frequently used as the starting material, are ideal building blocks for developing synthetic membranes. However, the selective exclusion of small ions while maintaining in a pressured filtration process remains a challenge for GO membranes.

Comprehensive assessment of the safety of bisphenol A and its analogs based on multi-toxicity tests in vitro.

J Hazard Mater

December 2024

National Engineering Research Center of Industrial Wastewater Detoxication and Resource Recovery, Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100085, China; University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China. Electronic address:

As substitutes for bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol analogs (BPs) have raised concerns due to their frequent environmental detection and unclear safety. Here, the cytotoxicity, endocrine disruption, neurotoxicity, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) activity, and genotoxicity of nine BPs and BPA were evaluated in three types of cell lines. Over half of the tested BPs exhibited greater cytotoxicity than BPA, with IC50 values showing a linear correlation with Log (R²=0.

Mechanistic insights into the viral microorganism inactivation during lime stabilization for wastewater sludges.

J Hazard Mater

December 2024

Centre for Technology in Water and Wastewater, School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Technology Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2007, Australia.

The pathogens inactivation in wastewater sludges is vitally important for safely managing solid wastes and protecting public and environmental health especially in the emergency. Reports have shown the effectiveness of lime to kill virus pathogens in sludges, but mechanism of virus inactivation and related human diseases is unclear. This study evaluated representative limes of CaO/CaO on actual viral microorganism inactivation by viral metagenomic sequencing technology.

The kinetics of polyamide membrane degradation by free chlorine and halide ions (Br and Cl) were innovatively evaluated based on physicochemical properties and filtration performance, using water/solute permeability coefficient in addition to bromide incorporation as important indicators. The reaction rate constants for the reduced water and HBO permeability coefficient were 1-2 orders of magnitude higher at 0-1 h than 1-10 h. N-bromination and bromination-promoted hydrolysis are dominant degradation mechanisms at 0-1 h (reflected by the breakage of hydrogen bond, the increased Ca binding content, and the increased charge density), and ring-bromination further occurs at 1-10 h (reflected by the disappearance or weakening of aromatic amide band and the nearly constant hydrogen bond).

Porous polyurethane biocarriers could enhance system nitrification resilience under high organic loading by retaining key functional bacteria.

Water Res

December 2024

National Engineering Research Center of Industrial Wastewater Detoxication and Resource Recovery, Beijing 100085, China; University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China.

Resilience to increasing organic loading rates (OLRs) is the key to maintaining stable performance in treating industrial wastewater. First, this study compared the stability, particularly the nitrification performance, of two lab-scale moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs) filled with porous polyurethane biocarriers with two conventional activated sludge reactors (ASRs) in the treatment of synthetic coking wastewater under OLRs increasing from 0.3 kg to 1.
