(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)Because of As toxicity, the complexity of its chemistry, and the recent lowering of the maximum contaminant level of As in municipal drinking water, there has been considerable interest for improved methods to remove As ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)The toxicity and adverse health effects of arsenic are widely known. It is generally accepted that sorption/desorption reactions with oxy-hydroxide minerals (iron, manganese) control the fate and transport of inorganic ...
-
(2017-07-18)Arsenic (As) groundwater contamination is a common problem in southeast Asia and many people continue to drink water with toxic concentrations of As. More in-depth understanding of the underlying geochemistry, hydrology, ...
-
(2018-05-22)Arsenic (As) is a toxic element widely encountered in the environment and a food safety concern. The use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) has grown rapidly due to the unique properties that make them beneficial in a wide ...
-
(2012-02-14)Arsenic in drinking water is a problem in many developing nations such as Taiwan and Bangladesh. Currently, no oral binding agent exists for the mitigation of arsenic toxicity. The goals of this research were to 1) screen ...
-
(2022-12-09)Aquifers are the primary water source for many cities. As urban groundwater demand increases the water quality in the aquifers underlying the city and surrounding areas are nevertheless vulnerable to geogenic pollutants. ...
-
(2012-07-16)Pavement markings are vital for safely navigating roadways. The nighttime visibility of pavement markings is enhanced by addition of retroreflective glass beads, most of which are made from recycled glass. Concern has been ...
-
(2010-10-12)In many regions of the world, groundwater is contaminated with a high level of arsenic that must be treated before it can be safely used as drinking water. In situ immobilization of arsenic from groundwater within subsurface ...
-
(2018-05-31)The efficacy of in situ fixing of arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) in a highly contaminated soil was examined using chemical extractions for lability, bioavailability, and bioaccessibility accompanied by spectroscopic verification. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)To achieve predictive capability for complex environmental systems with coagulation and arsenic sorption, a unified improved coagulation model coupled with arsenic sorption was developed. A unified coagulation model coupled ...
-
(2022-02-10)Expanding applications of metallic nano-agrichemicals have resulted in their increasing accumulation in agricultural soils. In addition to their potential uptake by agricultural crops, the effects of engineered nanoparticles ...
-
(2019-02-20)Development of a rodent model for renal cancer and disease development due to toxicant exposure is complicated by differences in renal handling of toxicants between rodents and humans as well as the tendency of rodents to ...
-
(2011-02-22)The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the ability of novel nanostructured adsorbent media (NTAs, iron sulfides (FeS2 and FeS)) to remove arsenic, selenium and mercury from ash and scrubber pond effluents. The NTAs ...
-
(2011-02-22)Arsenic is not an essential element and can be toxic to both plants and animals in high concentration. There is a demonstrated association between soil arsenic (As) and the occurrence of straighthead (a physiological ...
