DOI: 10.1016/j.eng.2020.05.022
Abstract: Abstract Many studies have been conducted on environmental flow (e-flow) assessment and supply, but e-flow shortages remain common in many urban rivers. In addition to known reasons such as ever-increasing competition among water users and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.2c07652
Abstract: p-Phenylenediamines (PPDs) are widely used as antioxidants in tire rubber, and their derived quinone transformation products (PPD-Qs) may pose a threat to marine ecosystems. A compelling example is N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD)-derived quinone, called 6PPD-Q, as the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16472
Abstract: Approximately half of the global annual production of wastewater is released untreated into aquatic environments, which results in worldwide organic matter pollution in urban rivers, especially in highly populated developing countries. Nonetheless, information on microbial… read more here.
