Some of the world’s leading rice-producing countries are sitting on a vast belt of pollution caused by heavy metal, according to a new study that has raised urgent concerns about global food safety.

The growth in demand for critical metals means toxic heavy metal pollution in soils is only likely to worsen. “We hope that the global soil pollution data presented in this report will serve as ...

A new battery system removes toxic metals from wastewater and generates electricity in the process, offering a low-cost, ...

According to the team, the type of tea bag affected the removal of lead and other heavy metals, with cellulose-bagged leaves being much adsorbent than cotton- or nylon-bagged ones. Also impactful was ...

However, concerns have emerged regarding systemic metal exposure due to the release of metal ions from these implants, particularly those made from cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloys. A recent study ...
