Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) present formidable global environmental challenges with serious risks to human health and ecosystem sustainability. Despite their significance, the accurate assessment of environmental MP and NP pollution re...
The marine environment is grappling with microplastic (MP) pollution, necessitating an understanding of its distribution patterns, influencing factors, and potential ecological risks. However, the vast area of the ocean and budgetary constraints make...
In this study, we introduce PFASorptionML, a novel machine learning (ML) tool developed to predict solid-liquid distribution coefficients () for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in soils. Leveraging a data set of 1,274 entries for PFAS in ...
Organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs) are important chemical additives that are used in commercial products. However, owing to increasing health concerns, the discovery of new OPFRs has become imperative. Herein, we propose an explainable artific...
How to scientifically and efficiently quantify the impact and hazards of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) pollution and volatilization from complex groundwater systems on surface air environments is a critical environmental issue. This paper employe...
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are porous crystalline materials obtained by linking organic ligands covalently. Their high surface area and adjustable pore sizes make them ideal for a range of applications, including CO capture, CH storage, gas s...
Accurately quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is crucial for organizations to measure and mitigate their environmental impact. Life cycle assessment (LCA) estimates the environmental impacts throughout a product's entire lifecycle, from raw m...
Mercury emission from coal combustion flue gas is a significant environmental concern due to its detrimental effects on ecosystems and human health. Elemental mercury (Hg) is the dominant species in flue gas and is hard to immobilize. Therefore, it i...
Nontarget screening (NTS) with liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) is commonly used to detect unknown organic micropollutants in the environment. One of the main challenges in NTS is the prioritization of relevant LC-HRM...
Membrane fouling remains a significant challenge in the operation of membrane bioreactors (MBRs). Plant operators rely heavily on observations of filtration performance from noisy sensor data to assess membrane fouling conditions and lab-based protoc...
