Abstract

Water is the most essential substance that supports various life mechanisms. It is a fundamental and necessary requirement for mankind and all other living creatures on the planet. Therefore, daily drinking water should be clean, readily available, sufficient, and free from harmful substances. However, in many rural areas, most sources of drinking water are assumed to be safe for human consumption, but this is not always the case. This work aims to provide a review of pollutants found in the drinking water of Sub-Saharan rural communities and explore potential low-cost remediation methods. The assessment of water pollutants and their remediation methods has been the primary focus of research for several years. Additionally, the World Health Organisation has established various minimum standards regarding the concentration of common pollutants in water. This review presents the major sources of water, the origin of contaminants, the different types of pollutants, and remediation methods to enhance the current knowledge in the field of rural drinking water contaminants.

Abstract

Microplastics have permeated all parts of the environment, rendering their removal essential. Numerous strategies ranging from the physical removal of mismanaged plastic items to the biodegradation of microplastics with microorganisms and biocatalysts have been proposed to alleviate microplastic pollution. Phytoremediation is one of the plastic-removing strategies, but it has not received much attention. This perspective paper aims to review the phytoremediation of microplastics and discuss its practicality. The paper shows that plants could act as interceptors and a temporary sink of microplastics by facilitating their deposition, adsorbing them, trapping them in the root zone, enabling them to cluster on the roots, taking them up, translocating them, and accumulating them in various plant parts. However, there was a lack of evidence pointing to the degradation of microplastics after they were adsorbed, taken up, and stored. Weak adsorption and environmental factors may cause the trapped microplastics to desorb, resuspend, or evade, thus also making plants a source of microplastics. The microplastics trapped and accumulated in plants may be transferred to the higher trophic levels of the food chain through ingestion and raise concerns over their ecotoxicities. Unlike localized pollution, microplastic pollution is widespread, which limits the applicability of phytoremediation. Besides, microplastics could adversely impact plant health and the ability of plants to remove other environmental pollutants. These drawbacks may reduce the attractiveness of phytoremediation unless it can be effectively combined with bioremediation to degrade microplastics.

Abstract

Pesticide contamination of soils poses a significant environmental and agricultural challenge on a global scale, with escalating pesticide consumption in various regions. Composting has emerged as a cost-effective and sustainable bioremediation method for pesticide-contaminated soils. This review article delves into the mechanisms, factors influencing efficiency, and the pros and cons of composting as a strategy to address pesticide pollution in soils. Pesticides enter soil environments through both point sources, such as spillage from storage or disposal areas, and non-point sources, including intensive agricultural use and household applications. The physical and chemical characteristics of pesticides, coupled with soil factors like permeability and particle size, influence their fate and behavior in soils. Composting, as a bioremediation method, offers several advantages, including complete destruction of pesticide compounds through microbial degradation, transforming them into less hazardous products. Key factors affecting composting efficiency include nutrient availability, particle size, temperature, pH, oxygen, and moisture content, all crucial for microorganism growth and pesticide degradation. This article underscores the importance of maintaining optimal conditions for these factors to ensure the high performance and efficiency of pesticide degradation during composting. It also discusses the potential drawbacks of this method. Composting proves to be a promising and eco-friendly approach for remediating pesticide-contaminated soils, addressing both environmental concerns and the need for sustainable agricultural practices.

Abstract

The growth of urban populations, industrialization, and economic development has led to a surge in solid waste production. When local recycling infrastructure falls short, much of this waste ends up in landfills, causing environmental and social challenges. This study aims to assess the feasibility of converting municipal solid waste (MSW) into energy, with a focus on combustion chamber modeling in Miri, Sarawak. Data on MSW composition are obtained from secondary sources. Ansys Fluent software is used to model the combustion chamber, and simulations are conducted to explore temperature, turbulence, and species distribution. MSW composition illustrates higher substantial fractions, with 39.8% being food waste, followed by 20.7% plastic/rubber. Calorific values range from 4652 kJ/kg for food waste to 32564 kJ/kg for plastic/rubber. Combustion simulations result in maximum flue gas temperatures of 1500 °C, 1200 °C, and 1800 °C under varying air inlet conditions. Turbulence intensities on the grate range from 125% to 174% for these air inlet configurations. The study concludes that moisture content significantly affects calorific value and heat generation during combustion. Higher turbulence intensities lead to increased reaction rates and heat generation, improving the energy efficiency of the process.

Abstract

Nanoremediation emerges as a promising technology for mitigating soil contamination, encompassing various nanotechnology applications, including chemical degradation, Fenton-type oxidation, photocatalytic degradation, immobilization, and integration with bioremediation techniques like phytoremediation. In addressing soil pollution, the most extensively researched nanomaterials (NMs) are based on carbon, metal and metal oxide, nZVI, and other nanocomposites. Nevertheless, limitations accompany the use of NMs in soil remediation. To assess whether nanotechnology applications outweigh environmental threats, it is crucial to investigate potential effects of NMs on terrestrial vegetation, soil organisms, and human well-being. The impacts of NMs on ecology and the soil environment must be taken into consideration when formulating remediation strategies. Future directions for applied and fundamental studies could include developing multifaceted nanocomposites, integrating them with technologies like bioremediation. Additionally, exploring real-time control and monitoring of NMs and their efficacy in removing pollutants is worth consideration. Pursuing these avenues is vital for advancing the field of soil remediation and comprehending the impact of nanotechnology on the environment.
