Fluorinated compounds are used for agrochemical, pharmaceutical, and numerous industrial applications, resulting in global contamination. In many molecules, fluorine is incorporated to enhance the half-life and improve bioavailability. Fluorinated co...
Disinfection processes in water treatment produce disinfection byproducts (DBPs), such as iodinated trihalomethanes (I-THMs), which pose significant health risks. Mitigating I-THMs remains challenging due to the complex interactions among water quali...

Assessing the degradation of emerging contaminants in water through chlorination is crucial for regulatory monitoring of these contaminants. In this study, we developed a machine learning model to predict the apparent second-order reaction rate const...
Restricted to the complex nature of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in various aquatic environments, the mechanisms of enhanced iodinated disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs) formation in water containing both I and IO (designated as I/IO in this study) d...
Machine learning can be used to predict the properties of polymers and explore vast chemical spaces. However, the limited number of available experimental datasets hinders the enhancement of the predictive performance of a model. This study proposes ...
This study investigated the coexistence and contamination of manganese (Mn(II)) and arsenite (As(III)) in groundwater and examined their oxidation behavior under different equilibrating parameters, including varying pH, bicarbonate (HCO) concentratio...
Chemical and pharmaceutical chemicals found in water sources create substantial risks to human health and the environment. The presence of pharmaceutical contaminants in water can cause antibiotic resistance development, toxicity to aquatic organisms...
Organic chemistry has largely been conducted in an ad hoc manner by academic laboratories that are funded by grants directed towards the investigation of specific goals or hypotheses. Although modern synthetic methods can provide access to molecules ...
