one of the pollutant materials in aquatic ecosystems is detergents that are inappropriate due to the increasing population in the world and in different ways to produce large amounts of groundwater and open surface water resources. these entry detergents to aquatic ecosystems can have adverse effects on aquatic life. so in current study acute toxicity of bleach on fry species of bighead carp an...

BACKGROUND Sorption and biodegradation are the primary processes of organic pollution remediation in aquatic and soil/sediment environments. While researchers have substantially reported their findings regarding these processes, little attention has been given to description of experimental apparatus. This technical paper aims to present the development and detailed design of a fixed-bed column...

In this review we discuss the degradation of chlorinated hydrocarbons by microorganisms, emphasizing the physiological, biochemical, and genetic basis of the biodegradation of aliphatic, aromatic, and polycyclic compounds. Many environmentally important xenobiotics are halogenated, especially chlorinated. These compounds are manufactured and used as pesticides, plasticizers, paint and printing-...

Arsenic (As) and mercury (Hg) are among the most toxic metals/metalloids. The overall goal of this study was to investigate the bioaccumulation of these trace elements in Vallisneria neotropicalis, a key trophic species in aquatic environments. For this purpose, As and Hg concentrations were determined in sediments and natural populations of V. neotropicalis in sub-estuaries of Mobile Bay (Alab...

Heavy metals are very harmful to the environment if present in excessive concentrations and will have an effect on humans they interact directly. Knowing findings of heavy metal bioaccumulation aquatic plants when reducing pollutants liquid waste is main goal this study. Various types data were developed analyzed answer specific goals set through EBSCO, ProQuest, Science Direct Search Engine, b...
