Extensive application of biochar to soil exerts a profound effect on organic carbon (OC) in
soils. However, the impact of biochar on the content and composition of OC has not been …

Biochars are biological residues combusted under low oxygen conditions, resulting in a
porous, low density carbon rich material. Their large surface areas and cation exchange …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are considerable microplastics (MPs) contributors to
environmental waters. Knowledge about the MPs degradation process under ultraviolet …

Microplastics were demonstrated to be an environmental sink for hydrophobic organic
pollutants, while they can also serve as a potential source of such pollutants. In this study …

The presence of microscale polymer particles (ie, microplastics) in the environment has
become a major concern in recent years. Sorption of organic compounds by microplastics …

Due to the hydrophobicity and large specific surface area microplastics (MPs) have become
the vector for the migration of environmental organic pollutants. Environmental aging …

Microplastics represent an increasing source of anthropogenic contamination in aquatic
environments, where they may also act as scavengers and transporters of persistent organic …

Water contaminated with emerging pollutants has become a serious environmental issue
globally. Biochar is a porous and carbon-rich material produced from biomass pyrolysis and …

Plastics debris in the marine environment, including resin pellets, fragments and
microscopic plastic fragments, contain organic contaminants, including polychlorinated …

PAHs are aromatic hydrocarbons with two or more fused benzene rings with natural as well
as anthropogenic sources. They are widely distributed environmental contaminants that …
