Introduction: Heavy metal pollution is one of the most serious environmental issues globally.In this research we were studied the heavy metal concentrations in sediment and fish in Persian gulf. Materials & Methods For determination of heavy metal concentrations in sediments 8 sampling stations were selected to measure Cd, Zn, Ni, Pb and Fe in the sediments and in the muscle tiss...

This study aimed to evaluate the concentration of heavy metals in liquid effluents and to quantify the mercury content in dental amalgam waste generated by dental clinics. Three neighbouring cities in Northeast Algeria were considered in this study (Constantine, Skikda, and Annaba). Heavy metals, such as Hg, Cu, Zn, Fe, Ni, Mn, Cr, Cd, and Pb, were analysed in wastewater and then compared with ...

background and objectives: despite the increasing impact of heavy metal pollution in persian gulf due to urban growth and agricultural and petroleum activities, few studies have focused on the behavior and relationships of these pollutants in the biotic and abiotic components of aquatic environments. in this study, the amount of some metals (copper, iron, lead, cadmium, zinc and nickel) was det...

The present study was aimed at comparing the ability of three crop plants for phytoremediation of zinc (Zn) and nickel (Zn) from soils. A factorial (3×2×3) experiment based on RCBD was used to compare the treatments, and was repeated three times. The first factor was crop type (wheat, clover and rapeseed), the second factor was heavy metal types (zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni)) and the third factor ...

background and aims: the removing of (potential) toxic heavy metal ions from sewage, especially in industrial and mining waste effluents, has been widely studied in recent years. the aim of present study was to investigate the various methods for lead removal of lead ions from industrial wastewater. methods: this study was a review research. data were collected through different databases in va...

nickel (ni) is a heavy metal and soil pollutant but existence of small amount of it as a metallic part of urease enzyme in the plants is necessary. remediation of spots contaminated with heavy metals is particularly challenging. phytoremediation, the use of plants for environmental restoration, is a novel clean up technology. in this study, five levels of nickel [control (ni0), ni125, ni250, ni...

heavy metal pollution by natural factors is a world-wide phenomenon. release of large quantities of heavy metals without handling proper processes that could decrease the concentration of such a material is a hassle that makes strains resistant to these heavy metals apart from entering into human food chain. in this research, wastewater of four firms in guilan province such as foolad, risandegi...

environmental stresses are one of the most important factors of agricultural products reduction in the world. the influence of different concentrations of nickel nitrate (0, 100, 200 and 500 μm in hoagland’s solution) on dry matter, catalase enzyme, flavonoids, hydrogen peroxide, peroxidase enzyme, mda and accumulation of ni were studied in coriander ( coriandrum sativum ) plants. treatment wit...

an increase in heavy metal pollution in the soils of arak due to industrialization and urbanization has become an environmental problem. the region hosts several industrial facilities which are the main source for hazardous wastes which include electric, metal, automotive supply industry, food, machinery, and chemicals. soil samples were collected from these industrial areas in the central and ...
