TL;DR: In this article, activated biochar was added for investigating the influences on physico-chemical properties of soil during composting, and the concentrations of available metals and arsenic in soil were detected on great reduction in the treatment of biochar-blended composting.

TL;DR: Systematic methods for evaluating progress towards the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are developed and tested using 119 indicators at China’s national and subnational levels during 2000–2015, showing improvement overall.

TL;DR: The spatial distribution pattern of the IR values among the exposed populations in the study area showed high values in the eastern and middle parts, with maximum values >5, and lowvalues in the western part, with minimum values <2, consistent with the distributions of the industries and the population.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a conceptual framework quantifying how urbanization influences the ecosystem services in a typical city (Nanjing) of China, separating the city into three urbanization categories (developing urban, developed urban and rural areas) and quantified the status of six critical ecosystem services (food supply, carbon sequestration, soil water storage, air pollution removal, habitat suitability, and recreation potential).

TL;DR: In this paper, the performances and mechanisms for atrazine degradation were examined by persulfate (PS) activation with nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and graphene (GR) composites at various conditions including dosages of nZVI/GR and PS, pH value, temperature and natural organic matters (NOM).
