Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPerformance Assessment and Monitoring of a Permeable Reactive Barrier for the Remediation of a Contaminated SiteValerio Zolla, Rajandrea Sethi, Antonio Di MolfettaThe present study illustrates the long-term monitoring plan carried out in order to investigate the performance of a zero-valent iron permeable reactive barrier (PRB) at a chlorinated solvents’ site. The cleanup intervention has been undertaken at an industrial landfill located near the city of Turin (Italy) and represents the first full-scale application of this technology in Italy. The monitoring plan … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,438 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrastructural and Circadian Morphometric Characteristics of Rat Pinealocytes Under Physiological and Toxic ConditionsAnna I. Anurkina, David A. Areshidze, Maria A. Kozlova, Valery P. ChernikovCarbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) exhibits pronounced neurotoxic effects following acute or chronic exposure. Recent studies indicate that the pineal gland responds to CCl₄ intoxication by altering its secretory function, although detailed ultrastructural changes in pinealocytes remain inadequately investigated. This research addresses the urgent need to elucidate the mechanisms of CCl₄ toxicity on the pineal gland, which could contribute to developing strategies … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2026 · 1,170 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClamshell vs. Backhoe Excavation of Permeable Reactive BarriersRajandrea Sethi, Steve Day, Antonio Di MolfettaProblem statement: Permeable Reactive Barriers (PRBs) were one of the most widespread solutions for the remediation of contaminated aquifers. Although, a variety of excavation methods had been developed, backhoe (hydraulic excavators) were commonly used for the construction of PRBs in North America. Approach: In Europe, the most common method of slurry excavation was with a hydraulic grab and crane. The … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 4 Nov 2011 · 7,238 accessesView PDF Cite
