RT Journal Article T1 Research on environmental aspects of retention/release of pollutants in soils and sorbents. What should be next? A1 Núñez Delgado, Avelino K1 Artificial intelligence K1 Adsorption K1 Desorption K1 Soil K1 Sorbents AB Although studies dealing with adsorption/desorption (and/or retention/release) of pollutants present in environmental compartments is a classical field of research, recent papers are focusing on some weak points of investigations and publications within the area. In addition, an increasing number of works are being published related to new possibilities and alternatives in this kind of research works, many of them in relation to the use of artificial intelligence (AI). Considering the existence of eventual controversies, eventual mistakes, and the convenience of suggesting alternatives to go ahead in the future, in this work, after taking into account some relevant publications in the previous literature, a simple workflow is proposed as a kind of protocol to revise successive steps that could guide the direction to follow when programing research dealing with the retention/release of pollutants in soils and sorbent materials PB Elsevier SN 0013-9351 YR 2024 FD 2024 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/33700 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/33700 LA eng NO Environmental Research, Volume 251, Part 1, 2024, 118593 NO This work was supported by the Spanish “Agencia Estatal de Investigación” (State Investigation Agency) [grant number PID2021-122920OB-C21] DS Minerva RD 4 may 2026
