Article Abstract
Products coal tar-based are largely used as concrete structures as protective coatings but some questions about leaching and potential toxic effects remain unclear. A laboratory experiment exposing oysters to miniaturized concrete pillars painted with Lackpoxi N1761 over time was performed and trace elements and 17 PAH were monitored in seawater exposure media, and oyster tissues. The original paint composition was also analyzed, and high concentrations of trace elements and PAH were detected. Sharp increases in PAH concentrations were observed after 6-96 h in exposure media and oyster tissues, suggesting that these compounds were leached from the painted structures. In parallel, the integrity of the hemocytes lysosomal membranes of exposed organisms has been damaged. Based on the response of this biomarker, the use of Lackpoxi N1761 is potentially harmful to the environment and it is required that coal tar-based paints be evaluated according to the environmental risk assessment protocols.

Porous carbon-based hydrogel evaporators show extensive application potential in the field of solar-driven water evaporation due to their wide availability, excellent hydrophilicity, and abundant porous structure. However, the closed pore structure of the single-molecule cross-linked hydrogel and the high production cost of the nanoporous carbon materials not only affect the salt resistance of the carbon-based hydrogel but also restrict its large-scale application. Herein, we developed a uniform porous APRC-PVA/PEG hydrogel evaporator by integrating poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) dual-network hydrogels with broadband solar-absorbing, cost-effective porous carbon nanosheets (APRC) derived from coal tar-based phenolic resin.

Research on the synthesis of catenated cages has been a growing field of interest in the past few years. While multiple types of catenated cages with different structures have been synthesized, the application of such systems has been much less explored. Specifically, the use of catenated cages in the separation of industrially relevant molecules that are present in coal tar has not been explored before.

Pavement sealants are frequently applied to parking lots and driveways to improve their appearance and protect the integrity of the underlying asphalt. We performed a comprehensive literature review to summarize the potential impacts of refined coal-tar-based sealant (RCTS) runoff to aquatic organisms and to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the lines of evidence presented in the literature. The studies reviewed included both laboratory and field exposures, with and without exposure to UV light, and measured effects on multiple endpoints associated with bacteria, benthic macroinvertebrates, and fish.
