Water quality assessment for groundwater around a municipal waste dumpsite
The dataset for this article contains geostatistical analysis of the level to which groundwater quality around a municipal waste dumpsite located in Oke-Afa, Oshodi/Isolo area of Lagos state, southwestern has been compromised for drinking. Groundwater samples were collected from eight hand-dug wells and two borehole wells around or near the dumpsite. The pH, turbidity, salinity, conductivity, t...
متن کاملNatural radioactivity and heavy metal distribution in reservoirs in Ghana
The present paper has determined the radioactivity concentrations, which are due to natural occurrence of radionuclides along with heavy metal concentration in water, sediment, and fish from 2 reservoirs in Ghana. Heavy metal concentrations in all samples were generally within the WHO safe limits with the average activity concentrations of 238U, 232Th, and 40K in water being respectively 0.42±0...

متن کاملHeavy metal Impact on Soil Microbial Biomass , Soil dehydrogenase activity and Soil Respiration rate
The contamination of agricultural soils by heavy metals is a global problem. Soil texture as a biotic factor represents one of the most important factors that influences the distribution of organic matter and ultimately play decisive role in retention of heavy metals in soil ecosystem. The effects of heavy metals on soil microbial processes were investigated. Analytical grade sulphate and chlor...
متن کاملEffects of Treated Municipal Wastewater on Soil Chemical Properties and Heavy Metal Uptake by Sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor L.)
In order to investigate the effect of treated municipal wastewater on soil chemical properties and heavy metal uptake by sorghum an experiment was carried out in the Institute of Agriculture at Zabol University, Iran 2007 in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The treatments were managed for irrigation; with well water during entire period of growing season as control (T1...
