Apr. 28, 2021 —Matching the capability of different tree species with the types of contaminants present in soil and water is critical in phytoremediation. A research team has developed a new contaminant ...
Mar. 21, 2022 —New studies provide valuable insights into removing toxins from polluted waterways and improving filtration at urban wetlands. One study found a wetland plant capable of reducing PFAS in soil and ...
Sep. 14, 2021 —A new study suggests that microparticle concentrations in lakes are higher than previously reported, and that human activity and surrounding land use may be a strong predictor of microplastics and ...
May 13, 2022 —Mercury pollution is a global problem in water, air and soil near goldmines, cement and other heavy industries burning fossil fuels -- with removal too expensive or difficult in some of the poorest ...
May 2, 2022 —New research is helping to remediate the 'indestructible' PFASs as scientists show that Australian native plants can significantly remediate PFAS pollutants through floating wetlands to ...
July 22, 2023 —Chemists have demonstrated that water remediation can be powered in part -- and perhaps even exclusively -- by renewable energy ...
June 22, 2021 —New research is showing that some tiny catalysts being considered for industrial-scaled environmental remediation efforts may be unstable during ...
June 5, 2021 —Researchers have developed a way to repeatedly remove and reuse phosphate from polluted waters. The team's Phosphate Elimination and Recovery Lightweight (PEARL) membrane is a porous, flexible ...
June 8, 2021 —Mining involves moving a lot of rock, so some mess is expected. However, mining operations can continue to affect ecosystems long after activity has ended. Heavy metals and corrosive substances leach ...
Apr. 13, 2022 —A team of researchers has demonstrated that some plant species could help to remove toxic heavy metals and metalloids from contaminated ...
