Partially fluorinated alcohols are better alternatives to Chloro-fluorocarbons and Hydro-chlorofluorocarbons as they are non-ozone depleting compounds…

The US landfills over 30 million tons of food waste every year. Food waste degradation represents the 3rd largest source of anthropogenic methane emissions in the US and generates landfill leachate…

Codon usage bias is a ubiquitous phenomenon occurring at both, interspecies and intraspecies levels in different organisms. _P. knowlesi, _whose natural host is long-tailed Macaque monkeys, has recently started infecting humans as well. The genome, as well as coding sequence data of P…

Chemical spills to waterways load a large amount of hazardous chemicals to sediment in a short period…

Organic aerosol particles have significant impacts on climate, air quality, and visibility. Our ability to forecast ambient loadings is hindered by gaps in our understanding of the factors that influence the chemical evolution of the condensed phase…

As a highly toxic pollutant, mercury poses a serious threat to humans worldwide. Among the many forms of mercury, elemental mercury (Hg0) is an important product in the metallurgy and recycling industries…

Flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-insulated (or -sheathed) copper (PVC/copper) wires or cables are generally used in electricity supplements and signal transmissions…

The brominated flame retardant hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) is a globally prevalent and persistent organic pollutant listed by the Stockholm Convention in 2013…

The classification of pharmaceuticals as emerging contaminants of concern has driven the investigation into the efficacy of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in degrading these pollutants within the natural environment…

The wide application of monoethanolamine (MEA) in post-combustion CO2 capture technology results in CO2 capture plants as a significant MEA emission source…

The formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) has direct implications on human health, climate change, and the environment…

Based on the reported literature, there are a number of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) present in diesel soot (DS), which are fluorescent compounds. Emission of DS could lead to the accumulation of PAHs in natural waterways over time, despite their poor solubility in water…
