Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances publishes research on the presence, impact, and remediation of hazardous substances in the environment. Articles focus on contaminants such as microplastics, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), particulate matter (PM2.5), heavy metals, and pesticides. Studies investigate their distribution, co-occurrence, transport, and effects on ecosystems and human health, as well as the development of novel treatment technologies and materials for their removal and management.
