Abstract This study explores the valorization of ceramic waste (CW) and waste tire particles in the development of eco-friendly cementitious tiles for outdoor roof shielding applications. CW, sourced from industrial bypr...

The present study focused on the wastewater from three hospitals in Erbil: Hawler Teaching Hospital, Rezgary Teaching Hospital, and Rozhawa Emergency Hospital. Wastewater samples were collected monthly (December 2024 to ...

Abstract Engineered cementitious composites (ECC) are ductile cement-based materials developed to overcome the brittleness of conventional concrete by exhibiting strain-hardening behaviour and improved crack control unde...

The brewing industry generates large volumes of malt bagasse, an underutilized lignocellulosic residue that poses an environmental challenge and represents an opportunity for the circular economy. In the face of increasi...

In this work, we report a class of high surface area biomass derived carbon material- (BCMs) obtained from industrial black tea process waste biomass (TW) as a support for synthesis of the nanoparticulate Pt supported on...

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a worldwide health concern that compromises the successful treatment of a growing array of infectious diseases, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. AMR is exaggera...

The problem of food waste is one of the most significant global problems that negatively affects many environmental elements. Out-of-date food products, particularly category III animal waste, contribute to this problem....

Abstract Background Multi-drug-resistant spectrum of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is frequently issue in wastewater of poultry industry, posing a major public hazard. Also, the incorporation of promising nano-s...

Food waste (FW) in collective catering settings remains a critical barrier to sustainable food systems, due to its magnitude and multidimensional negative impacts. Food waste reduction and prevention measures are often d...

Abstract To investigate antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), conjugative plasmids, and virulence genes in Swedish waterborne Escherichia spp., water samples were collected from urban freshwater and Baltic Sea beaches and ...

The wastewater effluent is a hotspot for a multitude of microorganisms, including environmental pathogens, true human pathogens, and animal pathogens. In the absence of standardized wastewater treatment facilities, these...

Abstract Accurate prediction of bio-oil yield from pyrolysis of organic solid waste is still the main problem in the field of biomass valorization, mostly because of high variability in the composition and the heterogene...

Fruit waste is an extensive problem, especially in areas where perishable fruits possess a short shelf life, resulting in considerable waste. A method of recycling fruit waste involves using it as a soil amendment, which...

The aim of this study was to investigate the bioenergy potential of greenhouse vegetable wastes like tomato, pepper, and eggplant wastes individually, in equal-mass binary mixtures, and in equal-mass ternary mixtures und...

This research designs a sustainable composite material using PLA, palm biomass, and ground volcanic stone (VSMGP) to improve mechanical and insulation efficiency for green construction. The raw materials were dried , sie...

Abstract The study aimed to develop cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) from pumpkin seed hull waste, referred to as pumpkin seed hull cellulose nanocrystals (PSHCNCs), and further evaluated the effect of incorporation (2.5–1...

Introduction: In 2025, Denpasar City recorded the highest waste volume in Bali, averaging 1.005 tons per day. Overall, Bali is in a waste emergency with a total daily output of 3.436 tons, of which 64,86% is organic wast...

Abstract Groundwater is a key water source for many Ghanaian communities, yet it remains highly vulnerable to pollution from human-induced activities, particularly in urban areas such as Kokompe, where domestic and indus...

Heavy metal contamination poses serious environmental and health risks, even at trace levels, highlighting the need for efficient and sustainable detection strategies. This study presents a green approach for producing n...

Abstract Residues of pharmaceuticals are gradually accumulating in surface water resources because of the disposal of wastewater effluent. For the present study, four surface water resources (rivers and streams) that rec...

Abstract The photocatalytic efficiency of pristine titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) remains suboptimal due to its poor visible light absorption and rapid charge carrier recombination, necessitating fine structu...

Abstract Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles are widely explored for photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants due to their high stability, low cost, and environmental compatibility. In this study, ZnO nanoparticles we...

Background: To overcome antibiotic resistance, there is an interest in improving or discovering novel classes of antibiotics from microorganisms that have different mechanisms of action worldwide. In Ethiopia, no signifi...

IntroductionWater plays an extremely important role in agricultural production. However, the impact of the water resource tax reform on grain yield has not yet been fully investigated.MethodsTaking the pilot reform of wa...
