Phosphorus (P) pollution in aquatic environments poses significant environmental challenges, necessitating the development of effective remediation strategies, and biochar has emerged as a promising adsorbent for P removal at the cost of extensive re...
In this study, we utilized an innovative quantitative read-across (RA) structure-activity relationship (q-RASAR) approach to predict the bioconcentration factor (BCF) values of a diverse range of organic compounds, based on a dataset of 575 compounds...
Traditional methods for identifying endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that activate androgen receptors (AR) are costly, time-consuming, and low-throughput. This study developed a knowledge-based deep neural network model (AR-DNN) to predict AR-me...
While forward osmosis (FO) and reverse osmosis (RO) processes have been proven effective in rejecting organic pollutants, the rejection rate is highly dependent on compound and membrane characteristics, as well as operating conditions. This study aim...
Hydrogel-based sorbents show promise in the removal of toxic metals from water. However, optimizing their performance through conventional trial-and-error methods is both costly and challenging due to the inherent high-dimensional parameter space ass...
The presence of toxic chemicals in water, including heavy metals like mercury and lead, organic pollutants such as pesticides, and industrial chemicals from runoff and discharges, poses critical public health and environmental risks leading to severe...

The contribution of mica mining activities to fluoride (F) contamination in groundwater has been chased in this study. For the purpose, groundwater samples (n = 40, replicated thrice) were collected during the post-monsoons (September-October) from a...
The Landfill plays an important role in urban development and waste disposal. However, landfill leachate may also bring more serious pollution and health risks to the surrounding groundwater environment. Compared with other areas, the area around the...
