However, there are many unresolved issues, which may impede global health agencies in framing stringent regulations and manufacturers considering the meticulous use of TCEP. Therefore, the aim of the present review is to highlight the factors that influence TCEP emissions from its sources, its bioaccessibility, threat of trophic transfer, and toxicogenomics in order to provide better insight into its emergence as an FR. Finally, remediation strategies for dealing with TCEP emissions, and future research directions are addressed.]]> Wed 27 Jul 2022 13:30:29 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46426 Wed 23 Nov 2022 09:51:18 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52380 12.5 g L−1 (soil/solution), considering higher sorption and limited desorption. Variable surface charges developed by different added ions (competing ions, counter ions, and co-existence of all ions) were not always correlated with Be sorption. However, effects of added ions in Be sorption (increased by counter ions and decreased by competing ions) primarily occurred at low pH, with no noticeable changes at pH > 6 due to the hydration and precipitation behaviour of Be at higher pH. Both laboratory data and modelling indicated the substantial effect of counter ions on increased sorption of Be. Relatively higher amounts of sorption under the co-existence of all added ions were suggested from synergistic actions. Sorption was favourable (KL > 0, and 0 < RL < 1) across all concentrations and temperatures at pH 5.5, and high retention (84–97%) occurred after four desorption cycles indicated specific sorption. The sorption process was exothermic (ΔH > −43 kJ mole−1), while desorption was endothermic (ΔH > +78.4 kJ mole−1). All sorption–desorption reactions were spontaneous (ΔG = −Ve), and executed without any structural deformation (ΔS = nearly zero) of soil particles. However, the effect of temperature on desorption was influenced by the concentrations of Be. Higher retention and different sorption–desorption parameters (Kd-desorption > Kd-sorption; Kf-desorption > Kf-sorption; ndesorption/nsorption < 1) indicate limited mobility of Be and the presence of desorption hysteresis in the studied soil under the experimental conditions.]]> Wed 07 Feb 2024 14:36:35 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52264 Sat 07 Oct 2023 12:46:52 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42373 Mon 22 Aug 2022 14:22:19 AEST ]]>
