PFAS (polyfluoroalkyl substances) contamination across the United States is an explosive concern for many water utilities, industrial companies, regulators, and concerned citizens. While these chemical compounds entered the environment for decades, the harmful consequences of these compounds are only just being realized and mitigated. The full exte...

This market insight covers fuel and emissions standards globally with an emphasis on the adoption in African countries. The study provides an overview of emissions standards as they have developed in developed markets and the requirements of these directives. The research looks to determine if policy directives are adhered to on the ground, i.e., w...

Air pollution entails the presence of harmful solid particles, liquid aerosols, or gases in high concentrations and over long periods, which negatively affect human and environmental health, causing diseases and atmospheric phenomena such as smog and acid rain. Some of these pollutants are visible, including particulate matter, smoke, and fume; how...

The rapid increase in the intensity and the number of sources involved in augmenting noise pollution combined with the increase in urbanization results in more people exposed to noise pollution globally. Noise pollution will therefore have a direct impact on human health and behavior. Increasing noise pollution will also have negative economic impa...

The global air quality systems market is experiencing rapid growth due to increasing concerns about air pollution and the importance of indoor air quality. Common causes of air pollution, including motor vehicles, industrial operations, household combustion appliances, and forest fires, contribute to the emission of pollutants such as particulate m...

The circular economy approach involves initiatives across material and product life cycles, supporting sustainable resource consumption and waste prevention by assimilating high-tech solutions. The global resource management sector is transitioning toward greater digital technology adoption using disruptive smart technologies and platform-based sol...

This edition of the Industrial Bioprocessing TOE features information on the deployment of entrained-flow and circulating fluidized bed gasification processes for the conversion of various waste feedstock into gaseous fuel. The TOE covers innovations based on automated indoor farms and agricultural robots for high-yield crop production and weed rem...

Increasing air pollution, urbanization, and industrialization severely degrade air quality, which worsens when natural calamities such as wildfires occur. The spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19 pandemic) and rising public awareness of the dangers of air pollution significantly accelerated the demand for air purification units in residential a...

The air around us is getting more polluted due to various reasons including high urbanization, emissions from vehicles, tobacco smoking, stubble burning, and natural calamities like forest fires and sandstorms. While the awareness about outdoor air pollution is relatively high, indoor pollution is often ignored. One common misconception is that ind...
