Abstract:
... The antiozonant N-phenyl-N’-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-p-phenylenediamine (6-PPD) is added to tires to increase their lifetime and is emitted with tire and road wear particles into the environment. Recently, one of its transformation products (TPs), 6-PPD quinone (6-PPDQ), has gained attention due to its toxicity towards coho salmon. In this study, the abiotic oxidative transformation of 6-PPD is investi ...

Abstract:
... Traditional runoff control measures ignore the spatial imbalance of regional pressures, thereby failing to achieve a site-specific placement for green and grey infrastructure simultaneously. A multi-criterion decision-making framework for runoff control infrastructure spatial planning was therefore developed in this study. The pressure-state-response framework was applied to creatively match the p ...
