Patients with kidney failure commonly require dialysis to remove nitrogenous wastes and to reduce burden to the kidney. Here, we show that a bacterial cocktail orally delivered in animals with kidney injury can metabolize blood nitrogenous waste products
The methods of metal removal are numerous and selection of the appropriate techniques depend upon factors such as the particular metal(s) involved, the chemical composition of the wastestream, the volume requiring treatment, variability in composition and flow of the wastestream and level of treatmen...
However, developing nations cannot afford these methods due to the generation of large amounts of sludge, the sensitive operating conditions, and high maintenance and operating costs [27]. Thus, research on low-cost agricultural waste by-products has become necessary due to the requirement for ...
WASTE productsWASTE managementThe concentration of pollutants has risen to unsafe levels in environment due to industrial, mining and agricultural processes leading to disposal of waste materials. Nickel ion is one of the heavy metal pollutants from power plants, metal fabrication facilities, and waste...
Occurrence of pharmaceuticals in Taiwan's surface waters: impact of waste streams from hospitals and pharmaceutical production facilities. Sci Total Environ. 2009;407(12):3793–802. 104. Kim S, et al. Removal of antibiotics in wastewater: effect of hydraulic and solid retention times on the ...
These compounds are also neurotoxic (Viberg et al. 2013) and have effects on development, growth and endocrine function (Flynn et al. 2019), affecting the development of foetuses and children, reducing fertility, causing cardiovascular diseases, interfer- ing with the natural hormonal balance ...
Persistent organic pollutants are commonly found in the waste products of the chemical, dyeing, pharmaceutical, and paper industries, posing a significant environmental pollution challenge. As a result, there is an urgent need for cost-effective and efficient methods to manage and reduce these pollutan...
Pb(II) is classified as a non-essential prevalent toxic metal ions and major environmental health problems, which affects multiple body systems including the hematologic, neurologic, gastrointestinal, renal and cardiovascular systems6,7. Lead in the form of Pb(II) is one of the most stable and ...
Storage of wastes leads to severe problems of water pollution and neighboring matrices due to the infiltration of landfill leachate. Uncontrolled landfill and waste storage can lead to groundwater pollution, which can lead to serious health problems for the living. Engineered barriers can be a soluti...
