Addressing airborne pollutant exposure at the source: an example of coal tar pitch volatiles (CTPV)

Author: Pretorius, Cecilia J Date: Sep 2016 Personal exposure concentrations to coal tar pitch volatiles (CTPV) were a concern in a workplace and the cause of the exposure was thought to be a particular raw material; as per the conventional belief. All the raw materials were analysed ... Read more
Bioelectricity generation by natural microflora of septic tank wastewater (STWW) and biodegradation of persistent petrogenic pollutants by basidiomycetes fungi: An integrated microbial fuel cell system

Author: Thulasinathan, B ; Jayabalan, T ; Sethupathi, M ; Kim, W ; Muniyasamy, Sudhakar ; Sengottuvelan, N ; Nainamohamed, S ; Ponnuchamy, K ; Alagarsamy, A Date: Jan 2021 The microbial fuel cell is a unique advantageous technology for the scientific community with the simultaneous generation of green energy along with bioelectroremediation of persistent hazardous materials. In this work, a novel approach of ... Read more
Bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from industry contaminated soil using indigenous bacillus spp.

Author: Mandree, Prisha ; Masika, Wendy S ; Naicker, Justin ; Moonsamy, Ghaneshree ; Ramchuran, Santosh O ; Lalloo, Rajesh Date: Sep 2021 Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are reportedly toxic, ubiquitous and organic compounds that can persist in the environment and are released largely due to the incomplete combustion of fossil fuel. There is a range of microorganisms ... Read more
Germination of Lepidium sativum as a method to evaluate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) removal from contaminated soil

Author: Maila, MP ; Cloete, TE Date: 2002 The sensitivity of Lepidium sativum germination to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was investigated in soil(s) artificially and historically contaminated with mixtures of PAR The level of germination of L. sativum decreased with ... Read more
Monitoring of trace organic air pollutants – a developing country perspective

Author: Forbes, PBC ; Rohwer, ER Date: Sep 2008 Air pollutants arise both from natural sources and from various anthropogenic activities, and are of concern due to their environmental impacts, including human health effects. In developing countries, atmospheric monitoring has largely focused ... Read more
Multispecies and monoculture rhizoremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from the soil

Author: Maila, MP ; Randima, P ; Cloete, TE Date: 2005 In this study, the authors investigated the potential of multispecies rhizoremediation and monoculture rhizoremediation in decontaminating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contaminated soil. Plant-mediated PAH dissipation was evaluated ... Read more
