The presence and distribution of various MP particles exhibit inconsistent patterns in urban waterways. Factors including land use type and anthropogenic activities are regarded as the dominant contributor of MPs in urban ...

This chapter provides a consolidated summary of the research study outcomes on the investigation of the environmental risks in relation to MPs occurrence and migration in urban waterways. The knowledge created is expected ...

Urban stormwater contains a diversity of pollutants and some can be toxic to human health such as heavy metals (HMs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). HMs and PAHs are primarily generated from traffic and land ...

Stormwater risk is primarily determined by the pollutant concentrations present, which is in turn dependent on the build-up of pollutants on urban surfaces. Therefore, risk assessment in relation to stormwater requires a ...

Safe reuse of urban stormwater requires risk assessment and management, for which accurate quality estimation is essential. This chapter initially discusses how pollutants build-up data obtained from the field was converted ...

In this study, the effects of anaerobic digestion (AD) on molecular characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the dewatered sludge has been described by advanced electrospray ionization combined with Fourier ...

Transdisciplinary approaches in water are important to ensure water security to everyone around the world. Recently, Young Water Professionals (YWPs) training was carried out to impart learning in transdisciplinary approaches. ...

A holistic understanding of the quality and quantity of stormwater in the context of catchment land use plays a crucial role in stormwater management. This study investigated the quality and quantity of stormwater from ...

For intensive food production, a range of chemical compounds are used to increase production, reduce the amount of weeds, and prevent pest infestation. Therefore, agricultural wastewater discharge to water bodies creates ...

The quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) model is highly relevant in estimating the cancer risk posed by human exposure to polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) laden in the environment. The application of ...
