Abstract Globally, fly ash (FA), generated in huge quantities from coal fired power plants is a
problematic solid waste. Utilization of FA as an ameliorant for improving soil quality has …

Despite the distinct benefits of plastics, the environmental impacts stemming from their
production and accumulation in the environment have become a global concern. Therefore …

Developing novel renewable (and preferably biodegradable) materials has become
recurrent due to the growing concerns with environmental impacts of high volumes of plastic …

This study assessed, for the first time ever, the use of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag as
alkalinizing material during the sludge conditioning, as an environmentally-friendly …

Bioremediation of weathered drill wastes severely contaminated with total petroleum
hydrocarbons (TPH)(90,000–170,000 mgkg− 1) and BTEX (51.2–95.5 mgkg− 1) to soil …

Particulate matter (PM) emitted from three light-duty vehicles was studied in terms of its
physicochemical and ecotoxicological character using Microtox® bioassay tests. A diesel …

In this study, the stabilization of tannery sludge, which produced during the physico-
chemical treatment of tannery wastewaters, was examined by the addition of ladle furnace …

Due to anthropogenic activities, large extends of soils are highly contaminated by Metal
Trace Element (MTE). Aided phytostabilisation aims to establish a vegetation cover in order …

Exposure to atmospheric particulate matter (PM) has detrimental effects on health, but
specific mechanisms of toxicity are still not fully understood. In recent years, there has been …

The co-combustion of sewage sludge (SS) and coal is widely used for the treatment and
thermal valorization of SS produced in wastewater treatment plants. The chemical and …
