This paper describes the concentration of selected heavy metals (Co, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in the Mamut river sediments and evaluate the degree of contamination of the river polluted by a disused copper mine. Based on the analytical results, copper showed the highest concentration in most of the river samples. A comparison with Interim Canadian Sediment Quality Guidelines (ICSQG) and Germany Sedi...

The pollution characteristics of Pb, Cd, Zn, Cu and Ni in soil of lead−zinc mining area were studied. The results indicate that the contamination degree followed the sequence of Cd>Pb>Zn>Ni>Cu and concentrations of Pb, Cd and Zn exceeded corresponding limits of the Chinese National Soil Environmental Quality Standard III. The soil was extremely polluted by Cd (Iego=5.26), moderately to heavily ...

caspian sea as the biggest surrounded water body in the word has long been in the pressure from environmental standpoints due to the fact that its large is surrounding by the larg domestic, industrial and agricultural areas. concern to inverse impacts of the inputted pollutants on the aquatic organism and margin human societies’ health, quality monitoring of the sediment as the main fate of the...

Toxicity has occurred in workers exposed to nickel dust or nickel carbonyl formed in refining. Increased risk of nasal and lung cancers was linked to occupational nickel exposure before current workplace safety standards were set. Activated carbon with nano holes used for removing contaminants in environment. The purpose of this work is preparation a new nano-absorber, GZ-BAKI-TAC-Ni-88, for th...

Soil microorganisms may be both sensitive and resilient to various disturbances. The effects of a single stressor on soil microorganisms have been well studied, but only limited research has been carried out to test the effects of simultaneous action of diverse stressors. Soil samples were collected from a long-term polluted zinc and lead site and an unpolluted site. Modeling studies assumed sp...

the spatial and temporal distribution of heavy metals in water, sediment and fish (dry weight basis) of buriganga river, bangladesh were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. in water concentration of pb, cd, ni, cu and cr varied seasonally and spatially from 58.17 to 72.45î¼g/l, 7.08 to 12.33î¼g/l, 7.15 to 10.32î¼g/l, 107.38 to 201.29î¼g/l and 489.27 to 645.26î¼g/l, respectively. ...
