AB  - Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are synthetic chemicals, which are introduced to the environment through anthropogenic activities. Remediation of PFAS contaminated soil and aqueous media is challenging, which is attributed to the chemical and thermal stability of PFAS and the complexity of PFAS mixtures.
Plants absorb water and nutrients through their roots to maintain their continuous healthy growth. Phytoremediation is a method that uses the ability of plants to remove and stabilize contaminants from the environment. The aim of this study was to investigate the plant growth in the presence of high concentrations of PFOA using the germination test, and further investigate their potential to degrade PFOA in soil. The accumulation of PFOA in plants was monitored using target LC/MS/MS analysis.

AB  - Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals with extremely strong C-F bonds. Due to their thermal stability, acid resistance, and high surface activity, they have been widely used for several decades in various consumer products. PFAS has been detected in water, soil, sediment, air, food, and biota samples on all continents and due to this are recognized as environmental and human health risk (Carlson et al. 2022). In the last decade, several available technologies were tested for the remediation of PFAS-polluted environments, such as adsorption, filtration, thermal destruction, oxidation/reduction, and soil washing, but several disadvantages were reported (Bolan et al., 2021). We hypothesize that by using advanced oxidation techniques followed by microbial treatment decrease in the concentration of PFOA as a PFAS model compound will occur. In the beginning, we tested separately abiotic and biotic degradation of PFOA. Target LC-MS/MS was used for quantitative analysis of PFOA decrease, and for detecting degradation products, nontargeted LC-MS/MS analysis was used.  In the photocatalysis study, we used selected Ti and Al-based photocatalysts. The experiments were conducted at 20 °C in an open cylindrical polypropylene reactor, and a simulated solar radiation lamp (Solimed BH Quarzlampen) was used as a light source. Microbial communities were isolated from the locations in Serbia, Japan, and Italy known for their pollution with PFAS, and enrichment was conducted on the media supplemented with ppm values of PFOA (Beskoski et al., 2018). Microbial communities were used as inoculum in the PFOA biodegradation study.

AB  - The problem of wastewater has long been ubiquitous and has great consequences for the environment and its
inhabitants. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) have enormous potential for the treatment of wastewaters polluted with
azo dyes. The amount of energy that can be produced from a single-chamber MFC is sufficient to perform
decolorization and degradation of such dyes, which are widely used in the textile industry. This study on the azo
dye, reactive black 5 (RB5), provides an alternative method through three parallel-connected MFCs to obtain
electricity that directly serves for the dye’s electrochemical degradation. We examined degradation followed by
decolorization of RB5 using Fe and Pt electrodes, together with H2O2, to achieve the electro-Fenton process. The
amount of voltage produced (295 mV), the current density (276 mA m− 3
) and the power density (50 mW m− 3
)
were sufficient to degrade 25 mg L-1 RB5 dye with 0.5 mM H2O2 in just 2 h. The dye degradation mechanism was
investigated using UV–VIS, FT-IR and HPLC-MS/MS. The ecotoxicity of the degradation products was assessed
using a bacterial model, Aliivibrio fischeri. These tests showed that there was successful degradation of the dye to
products whose toxicity is less than that of RB5.

AB  - A core-shell amino-functionalized glycidyl methacrylate magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized by the suspension polymerization/surface imprinting method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mercury porosimetry, nitrogen gas adsorption–desorption, and elemental analysis. This MIP was used as the sorbent in dispersive solid-phase microextraction (DSPME) of aniline from textile wastewater prior to high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) measurements. Since aniline is toxic and a probable human carcinogen, its determination in water is of great significance. This is a challenging task because aniline is usually present at trace levels. The effects of different DSPME variables on the preconcentration efficiency have been studied by using the Plackett–Burman screening design of experiments (DoE) followed by response surface methodology optimization using the Box-Behnken design. Thus, DoE enabled the investigation of several variables simultaneously. Under optimized conditions, aniline was effectively and selectively separated by a small amount of the DSPME sorbent and detected in real textile wastewater samples. The method detection limit of 1 ng mL−1 was attained, with good method linearity and acceptable recovery and precision. The results showed that the studied MIP could be a reliable DSPME sorbent for efficiently analyzing trace aniline in real wastewater samples.
