Journal ArticleDOI

The assessment of water use and reuse through reported data: A US case study

TL;DR: It is suggested that intentional water reuse for consumptive purposes such as landscape or agricultural irrigation could have substantial ecological impacts by diminishing stream flow during vulnerable low flow periods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laboratory studies to characterize the efficacy of sand capping a coal tar-contaminated sediment.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the performance of a microbial active sand cap on coal tar-contaminated river sediment and found that the resulting microbially active sand layer can improve the water quality of the benthic zone and reduce the flux of many, but not all, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons to the water column.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of the factors that influence lead accumulation onto polyethylene: Implication for potable water plumbing pipes.

TL;DR: ATR-FTIR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis of aged LDPE surfaces showed that a variety of polar functional groups (>CO<, >CO, >COO) were formed during aging, likely provided better nucleation sites for Pb(OH)2 deposition compared to new LDPe, which did not have these oxygen-containing functional groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sorption of Buckminsterfullerene (C60) to saturated soils.

TL;DR: With the increasing use of C60 in many industrial and commercial sectors, it is likely that it will eventually appear in the environment however, its environmental fate and transport is still largely unknown, and the extent to which C60 partitions to soil will contribute to itsEnvironmental fate and bioavailability is unknown.
