“…In Electro-kinetic remediation technique, zero valance iron nano-particles are used to prevent environment from pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and bio-chlorinated solvents. These are detoxified by using zero valence iron nano-particles but this technique has limitation, as zero valence iron nano-particles have high reactivity (Tummala and Tewari, 2018).…”

P esticides are the chemical substances which are used to kill harmful or which can damage the living organisms (Mathews, 2006). Pesticides have been put in to diferent classes based on their uses and handling e.g. bactericides, algicides, herbicides, fungicides, nematicides, insecticides, and rodenticides, while those having carbon rings are organophosphorus, carbamates, organochlorine, acetamides, Triazines and triazoles, pyrethroids and neonicotinoids (Tarla et al., 2020). During the period of green revolution in Pakistan, major focus was also to produce the harmless pesticides in order to control the widespread variety Abstract | Pesticides are the chemicals substances which are used for prevention of plant diseases, weeds and being used widely for increasing the quantity as well as quality of food products. Naturally, these pesticides interact with environment by altering the properties of host substances by producing the adverse impacts because most of the famers have no idea of using these chemicals substances. Pesticides are absorbed by soil particles which are transported to plants as well as animals through food chain and severely affect the ecosystem by causing acute or chronic disorders in the people of all ages. Similarly these pesticides cause serious threats to the aquatic ecosystem after their release by comprising different toxic substances, heavy metals and contaminants. This review paper has focused on the toxic nature of different pesticides, impacts and their possible refinement strategies from the environment as well as ways to minimize their impacts on plants and animals as adverse impacts of pesticides have also been observed on the human health, plants and other animals which need to control by reducing the use, release and synthesis on large scale.

“…Electrochemical methods such as electro-kinetics and capacitive deionization have been used in environmental engineering by authors for various purposes ranging from water remediation and purification [16][17][18][19][20]. The fundamental concept of CDI experiment is analogous to a capacitor and movement of a charged particles through electric field between capacitor plates (electrodes).…”

Prior to joining Louisiana Tech, he earned his Bachelor of Engineering (Civil Engineering) and Master of Technology (Chemical Engineering) in India. Later, he joined Texas A&M University and earned his Doctor of Philosophy in Civil (Environmental) Engineering. His research efforts are focused on water quality and issues related to treatment of wastewater using physical, chemical, biological and electro-chemical/kinetic processes. His broader research efforts have been in the area of application of geographic information systems to environmental management and sustainability, causes/effects of salinity in soils and corrosion of metal pipes. Dr. Tewari also has keen interest in STEM education, improving diversity in STEM areas, inclusion of hands-on and digital tools in curriculum.
