Primitive electronic waste (e-waste) recycling releases large amounts of organic pollutants
and heavy metals into the environment. As crucial moderators of geochemical cycling …

The crude processing of electronic waste (e-waste) has led to serious contamination in soils.
While microorganisms may play a key role in remediation of the contaminated soils, the …

The ever increasing pile-up of electronic waste in dumping sites, especially in developing
countries such as China, Pakistan, India and several African countries, might have caused a …

Background Microbial community analysis of electronic waste (e-waste)-polluted
environments is of interest to understand the effect of toxic e-waste pollutants on the soil …

Soil microbes play vital roles in ecosystem functions, and soil microbial communities may be
strongly structured by land use patterns associated with electronic waste (e-waste) recycling …

Contaminated sites from electronic waste (e-waste) dismantling and coking plants feature
high concentrations of heavy metals (HMs) and/or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) …

The present study aims to assess the effect of electronic waste (e-waste) recycling on
microbial community and the underlying modulation mechanism. Core soil/sediment …

Heavy metal contamination is a serious problem worldwide threatening soil environment
and human health. In the present study, concentrations of 6 heavy metals at an electronic …

Heavy metals and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are ubiquitous pollutants at
electronic waste (e-waste) contaminated sites, their individual impacts on soil microbial …

Abstract Surface soils from Guiyu, China (an intense e-waste processing center) were
analyzed for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and variations in composition of the …
