Nature-based solution enhances resilience to flooding and catalyzes multi-benefits in coastal cities in the Global South

Jérôme Chenal, Paolo Perona, Charlotte Grossiord, Emmanuel Qays Dubois, Montana Marshall

Coastal cities are facing a rise in groundwater levels induced by sea level rise, further triggering saturation excess flooding where groundwater levels reach the topographic surface or reduce the storage capacity of the soil, thus stressing the existing i ...

Probiotics and gut microbiome-Prospects and challenges in remediating heavy metal toxicity

Edgard Gnansounou, Ranjna Sirohi

The gut microbiome, often referred to as "super organ", comprises up to a hundred trillion microorganisms, and the species diversity may vary from person to person. They perform a decisive role in diverse biological functions related to metabolism, immunit ...

In Situ Biostimulation of Cr(VI) Reduction in a Fast-Flowing Oxic Aquifer

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi

Hexavalent chromium is among the most common and hazardous inorganic contaminants in soils and groundwater. A promising in situ bioremediation approach is the delivery of electron donors to stimulate microbially mediated Cr(VI) reduction, producing relativ ...

Natural iron ligands promote a metal-based oxidation mechanism for the Fenton reaction in water environments

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Giulio Farinelli

The Fenton reaction is an effective advanced oxidation process occurring in nature and applied in engineering processes toward the degradation of harmful substances, including contaminants of emerging concern. The traditional Fenton application can be rema ...

Synergistic CO2-Sieving from Polymer with Intrinsic Microporosity Masking Nanoporous Single-Layer Graphene

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Mounir Driss Mensi, Luis Francisco Villalobos Vazquez de la Parra, Shiqi Huang, Guangwei He, Jing Zhao, Wan-Chi Lee

High-flux nanoporous single-layer graphene membranes are highly promising for energy-efficient gas separation. Herein, in the context of carbon capture, a remarkable enhancement in the CO(2)selectivity is demonstrated by uniquely masking nanoporous single- ...

Chlorinated ethene plume evolution after source thermal remediation: Determination of degradation rates and mechanisms

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Alexandra Marie Murray, Jérémy Zimmermann

The extent, mechanism(s), and rate of chlorinated ethene degradation in a large tetrachloroethene (PCE) plume were investigated in an extensive sampling campaign. Multiple lines of evidence for this degradation were explored, including compound-specific is ...

As release under the microbial sulfate reduction during redox oscillations in the upper Mekong delta aquifers, Vietnam: A mechanistic study

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Manon Frutschi, Laurent Louis José Charlet

The impact of seasonal fluctuations linked to monsoon and irrigation generates redox oscillations in the subsurface, influencing the release of arsenic (As) in aquifers. Here, the biogeochemical control on As mobility was investigated in batch experiments ...
