A review on treatment of membrane concentrates generated from landfill leachate treatment processes
(Elsevier, 2021)
Landfill leachate (LL) is highly toxic wastewater and comprises various pollutants such as organic compounds, biological organisms, xenobiotics, heavy metals, inorganic salts, and ammonia. The integration of conventional ...
Bioaccumulation and biomagnification of potential toxic elements (PTEs): An Avicennia germinans-Uca rapax trophic transfer story from Jobos Bay, Puerto Rico
(Elsevier, 2021)
In southern Puerto Rico along the coastline bordering the Jobos Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, environmental encroachment has exposed mangrove forest to different sources of pollution. Potentially toxic element ...
Evaluation of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables from the Aegean region of Turkey and assessment of risk to consumers
(Springer Heidelberg, 2021)
Pesticides may cause a potential risk to human health when applied in excess to control pests, diseases, and weeds in crop fields. In the current study, conducted in the Aegean region of Turkey from 2012 to 2016, a total ...
Organophosphate esters in house dust: A comparative study between Canada, Turkey and Egypt
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2019)
Organophosphate esters (OPEs) are commonly used as flame retardants (FRs) and plasticizers. The usage of OPEs has increased recently due to the ban of several brominated flame retardants, but information on levels in the ...
Photovoltaic performance and photostability of anthocyanins, isoquinoline alkaloids and betalains as natural sensitizers for DSSCs
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018)
Natural dyes extracted from fruit (FBV) and root (RBV) of barberry (Berberis vulgaris) and fruit (FPA) and stalk (SPA) of pokeweed (Phytolacca americana) were used as sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). All ...
