“…Existing methods cannot completely remove or degrade pesticides from the soil environment. In addition, there are some limitations, such as poor effectiveness, a long time, and even the production of new pollution, which lead to a variety of problems in the process of removing pesticide contamination from the environment (Meriam Suhaimy et al 2020;Cheng et al 2022). Hence, workers engaged in remediating polluted areas must be equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, splash goggles, boots, respirators, and coveralls.…”

Pesticide misuse and overuse severely pollute agricultural soils, water, and crop yields, harming people and animals. This situation raises serious concerns about environmental pollution on a global scale. As an eco-friendly material for soil remediation, biochar can efficiently immobilize pesticides in the soil. Several studies have focused on the feasibility of biochar in remediating polluted soil. However, its influences during the remediation of pesticide-polluted soils remain indistinct. The present review illuminates the positive and negative influences of biochar on the dissemination of pesticides, the underlying mechanisms, the regulating factors, and critical considerations in the ongoing development of biochar for pesticide use. It also delineates the positive and negative impacts of biochar on pesticides in the soil, evaluates potential pitfalls based on recent research, and offers suggestions for prospective biochar applications crucial for remediating contaminated soil. This review reveals that the fate and types of pesticides, along with the physicochemical properties of soil and biochar types, can significantly influence the remediation of pesticide-polluted soil using biochar. Biochar has the potential to enhance the abundance of certain bacteria and the colonization of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, both of which play crucial roles in soil remediation. Biochar can also modify soil moisture, microbial communities, and other factors that impact the rate of pesticide degradation while simultaneously reducing other types of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. This review underscores the importance of thoroughly understanding the properties of biochar before its application to polluted soils. This review can serve as a basis for subsequent studies on the biochar-mediated remediation of contaminated soils. Graphical Abstract

“…Perovskite has the outstanding capabilities for use as light harvesters in solar cells due to the ability to adjust its optical properties. The perovskite materials can be used not only as lightabsorbing layer, but also as an electron/hole transport layer due to the advantages of its high extinction coefficient, high charge mobility, long carrier lifetime, and long carrier diffusion distance [3][4][5]. It also acts as a charge carrying material.…”

In this work, the Taguchi Method approach is used to optimize graphene oxide (GO) as the hole transport layer (HTL) in inverted perovskite solar cells (IPSC). By using this method, the data from the numerical modelling Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator-One Dimensional (SCAPS-1D) was optimized. While it has distinct parameter results and diverse causes, it also takes a long time to complete the analysis process. The Taguchi method is reported to be able to find the most significant factor and reduce the parameter variations in less time. The Taguchi algorithm is used in this experiment because it is based on orthogonal array (OA) experiments, which provide a substantially smaller variance for the experiment with optimal control parameter values. SCAPS-1D software was used to simulate the IPSC with GO as HTL. The results obtained with the software are then analysed and compared with the performance of the solar cell. The final results show that the Taguchi Method optimized IPSC with GO as HTL achieved better Power Conversion Efficiency (PCE) compared to previous researchers, with the efficiency increasing from 18.53%.to 23.408%.

“…Due to the increase in the world's population, it is predicted that in the coming years the demand for healthy water will increase by 55 % (Gopinath et al 2020;Suhaimy et al 2020). Although industries treat their wastewater with conventional processes, these are not e cient in degrading all pollutants, especially emerging organic compounds (EOCs) (De la Cruz et al 2013).…”

One of the most widely used antibiotics is amoxicillin (AMX), which is the most widely used in humans and animals, but it is discharged metabolically due to its indigestibility. Conventional biological and physicochemical methods for removing AMX from water are not enough to mineralize it, only it is concentrated and transferred to produce new residues that require further processing to remove the new residues.In this research, naked and modi ed surfaces with TiO 2 nanotubes (TiO 2,nt ) electrophoretically modi ed with PbO 2 , IrO 2 , RuO 2 , and Ta 2 O 5 were used to evaluate their e ciency in the electrochemical degradation of AMX in acid media (0.1 mol L − 1 H 2 SO 4 ). After their comparison, Pb-Ta 50:50|TiO 2,nt |Ti showed the highest removal e ciency of AMX (44.71 %) with the lowest speci c energy consumption (8.69 ± 0.78 kWh Kg COD − 1 ), and the average instant current e ciency of 26.67 ± 9.19 %, in comparison with the others naked and modi ed surfaces of TiO 2,nt |Ti.
