Journal ArticleDOI
Dissolved effluent organic matter: Characteristics and potential implications in wastewater treatment and reuse applications.
I. Michael-Kordatou,Costas Michael,Xiaodi Duan,Xuexiang He,Xuexiang He,Dionysios D. Dionysiou,Dionysios D. Dionysiou,Marc A. Mills,Despo Fatta-Kassinos +8 more
TL;DR: The literature findings reveal that dEfOM removal by advanced treatment processes depends on the type and the amount of organic compounds present in the aqueous matrix, as well as the operational parameters and the removal mechanisms taking place during the application of each treatment technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expanded Target-Chemical Analysis Reveals Extensive Mixed-Organic-Contaminant Exposure in U.S. Streams
Paul M. Bradley,Celeste A. Journey,Kristin M. Romanok,Larry B. Barber,Herbert T. Buxton,William T. Foreman,Edward T. Furlong,Susan T. Glassmeyer,Michelle L. Hladik,Luke R. Iwanowicz,Daniel K. Jones,Dana W. Kolpin,Kathryn M. Kuivila,Keith A. Loftin,Marc A. Mills,Michael T. Meyer,James L. Orlando,Timothy J. Reilly,Kelly L. Smalling,Daniel L. Villeneuve +19 more
TL;DR: Log10 concentrations of widely monitored HHCB, triclosan, and carbamazepine explained 71-82% of the variability in the total number of compounds detected, providing a statistical inference tool for unmonitored contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perfluoroalkyl acid distribution in various plant compartments of edible crops grown in biosolids-amended soils.
Andrea C. Blaine,Courtney D. Rich,Erin M. Sedlacko,Lakhwinder S. Hundal,Kuldip Kumar,Christopher Lau,Marc A. Mills,Kimberly M. Harris,Christopher P. Higgins +8 more
TL;DR: Edible crops grown in soils conventionally amended for nutrients with biosolids (that are not impacted by PFAA industries) are unlikely a significant source of long-chain PFAA exposure to humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uptake of perfluoroalkyl acids into edible crops via land applied biosolids: field and greenhouse studies.
Andrea C. Blaine,Courtney D. Rich,Lakhwinder S. Hundal,Christopher Lau,Marc A. Mills,Kimberly M. Harris,Christopher P. Higgins +6 more
TL;DR: This study confirms that the bioaccumulation of PFAAs from biosolids-amended soils depends strongly on PFAA concentrations, soil properties, the type of crop, and analyte.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spider-mediated flux of PCBs from contaminated sediments to terrestrial ecosystems and potential risks to arachnivorous birds.
TL;DR: Spiders are abundant and ubiquitous in riparian habitats, where they depend on aquatic insect prey, and the high degree of spatial correlation between spider and sediment concentrations observed suggest that they are model indicator species for monitoring contaminated sediment sites and assessing risks associated with contaminant flux into terrestrial ecosystems.
