Cadmium (Cd) is a bio-essential trace metal in the ocean that can be toxic at high concentrations, significantly impacting the marine environment and phytoplankton growth. Its distribution pattern is closely proportional to that of phosphate (PO), al...
This study investigates the use of six plant-based coagulants - , , , , , and for the removal of turbidity from wastewater effluent. The coagulants were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to determine morphological structure, X-r...
Electroactive biofilm (EAB) sensors have become pivotal in water quality detection and early ecological risk warnings due to their remarkable sensitivity. However, it is challenging to identify multiple toxicants in complex water bodies concurrently....

Caffeine, considered an emerging contaminant, serves as an indicator of anthropic influence on water resources. This research employs various modeling techniques, including Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Random Forest (RF), and more, along with hy...
Neurotoxicity is frequently observed in the global aquatic environment, threatening aquatic ecosystems and human health. However, a very limited proportion of neurotoxic effects (∼1%) has been explained by known chemicals of concern. Here, we integra...

Groundwater quality is assessed by conducting water sampling and laboratory analysis. Field-based measurements are costly and time-consuming. This study introduces a machine learning (ML)-based framework and innovative application of stacking ensembl...
Antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin (Cfx), tetracycline (Tet) and Tobramycin (Tob) are commonly used against a broad-spectrum of bacterial infection. Recent surge in their uptake through the presence of their residues in environmental water has been linke...
Seasonal water level fluctuations in rivers significantly influenced the cross-media migration, transformation, and risk diffusion of antibiotics from the vadose zone into groundwater. This study developed a coupled model integrating machine learning...
Mg-modified biochar shows high adsorption performance under weakly acidic and neutral water conditions. However, its phosphate removal efficiency markedly decreases in naturally alkaline wastewater, such as that released in livestock farming (anaerob...
