Journal ArticleDOI
Organophosphorus flame retardants and plasticizers in water and air I. Occurrence and fate
TL;DR: Quintana et al. as discussed by the authors discussed the major processes affecting the fate of OPEs in the environment, such as sorption, volatilization and biodegradation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tire wear particles in the aquatic environment - A review on generation, analysis, occurrence, fate and effects.
Stephan Wagner,Thorsten Hüffer,Philipp Klöckner,Maren Wehrhahn,Thilo Hofmann,Thorsten Reemtsma +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that reliable knowledge on transport mechanism to surface waters, concentrations in surface waters and sediments, effects of aging, environmental half-lives of TWP as well as effects on aquatic organisms are missing are missing and need to be addressed to allow for the assessment of risk ofTWP in an aquatic environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mind the Gap: Persistent and Mobile Organic Compounds-Water Contaminants That Slip Through.
Thorsten Reemtsma,Urs Berger,Hans Peter H. Arp,Hervé Gallard,Thomas P. Knepper,Michael H. Neumann,José Benito Quintana,Pim de Voogt +7 more
TL;DR: The issue of PMOCs from an environmental perspective is highlighted and the gaps that appear to exist in terms of analysis, monitoring, water treatment and regulation are assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polar pollutants in municipal wastewater and the water cycle: occurrence and removal of benzotriazoles.
TL;DR: Isotherm data from batch experiments indicate that activated carbon filtration should be suitable to avoid intrusion of TTri into drinking water in partially closed water cycles, however, sorption to activated carbon appears to be too weak and ozonation may be mandatory to remove it from raw waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermophilic archaea activate butane via alkyl-coenzyme M formation
Rafael Laso-Pérez,Gunter Wegener,Gunter Wegener,Katrin Knittel,Friedrich Widdel,Katie Jean Harding,Viola Krukenberg,Dimitri V. Meier,Michael Richter,Halina E. Tegetmeyer,Dietmar Riedel,Hans-Hermann Richnow,Lorenz Adrian,Thorsten Reemtsma,Oliver J. Lechtenfeld,Florin Musat,Florin Musat +16 more
TL;DR: It is shown that an anaerobic thermophilic enrichment culture composed of dense consortia of archaea and bacteria apparently uses partly similar pathways to oxidize the C4 hydrocarbon butane.
