Long-Term Dynamics of Urban Soil Pollution with Heavy Metals in Moscow

Assessment of Soil Pollution with Heavy Metals in Romania

long term effects of different irrigation methods with wastewater on heavy metals accumulation in soil

demand for water resources in different parts of the world, necessitate the use of wastewater. in using wastewater the soil health must be considered. this study was carried out at green space zob ahan in the years 1382 to 1385. in this study, the effects of urban and industrial wastewater irrigation on some chemical properties of soil for three years by using five different irrigation treatmen...

Geochemical Analysis of Soil Physicochemical Properties and Heavy Metals Content in the Long- term Wastewater-irrigated Soils

Exploring the homogenous regions for site specific management is important, especially in the areas under different anthropogenic activities. This was investigated using multi-way analysis including Factor Analysis, Hierarchical Clustering Analysis and k means in the areas under long-term wastewater irrigation over a period of more than 40 years, in Shahre Rey, south of Tehran. By using Factor ...

A Protocol for Pollution Index, Source Identification, and Spatial Analysis of Heavy Metals in Top Soil

Introduction: This study aimed to assess a good protocol for the contamination indexes, concentration, spatial analysis, and source identification of toxic metals in top soils. Materials and Methods: In the first step, samples were taken from top soil (30 cm) and the metals were extracted and detected with ICP-AES. In the second step, Enrichment Factor, Geoaccumulation Index, and Contamination...

Potential soil pollution by heavy metals in Kurdistan region, western Iran: the impact of ultramafic bedrock

Ultramafic rocks of the ophiolitic complexes are prone to alteration and degradation, and therefore, ease of mobility of heavy metals such as nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), lead (Pb), and vanadium (V), resulting in environmental hazards. The ultramafic rocks of the ophiolitic realm of Kurdistan province, west of Iran, show field and compositional evidence for such hazardous conditions...
