environmental effects of gol-e-gohar iron ore mine on groundwater of the area
gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...
Detoxifying toxicants: interactions between sulfide and iron toxicity in freshwater wetlands.
In many Dutch freshwater wetlands, concentrations of sulfate in the surface water and groundwater have increased. It is especially in peaty areas that this can lead to problems, including the reduction of sulfate to toxic sulfide. Our aquarium experiments showed that even low sulfide concentrations of 50 micromol/L are toxic to the freshwater macrophyte Nitella flexilis and the freshwater oligo...
متن کاملSpecies-specific enzymatic tolerance of sulfide toxicity in plant roots
Toxic effects of sulfide come from a poisoning of a number of enzymes, especially cytochrome c oxidase, which catalyzes the terminal step in mitochondrial aerobic respiration. Despite this, some estuarine plants live in sulfide-rich sediments. We hypothesized estuarine and flooding-tolerant species might be more tolerant of sulfide compared to upland species, and this was tested by measures of ...
متن کاملArsenic Toxicity: The Effects on Plant Metabolism
The two forms of inorganic arsenic, arsenate (AsV) and arsenite (AsIII), are easily taken up by the cells of the plant root. Once in the cell, AsV can be readily converted to AsIII, the more toxic of the two forms. AsV and AsIII both disrupt plant metabolism, but through distinct mechanisms. AsV is a chemical analog of phosphate that can disrupt at least some phosphate-dependent aspects of meta...
