Present study assessed the effect of heavy metals on soil enzyme activities like amylase, invertase, dehydrogenase and urease of open shrub lands present at 1 km, 1.5 km, 2 km and 2.5 km distance away from Bhushan sponge iron industry, in Rengali block of Sambalpur district, Odisha. The heavy metals studied were Cd, Ni, and Cr, whose concentrations in the above sites were much more than the saf...

This study aims to estimate the amount of air pollutants emitted from heavy industrial facilities in North Korea. The industry sector Korea was classified according South Korean definition, and pollutant emissions that it generated were estimated for 2017. Emissions carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur (SOx) by 22, 73, 31%, respectively, those Korea’ emissions. Moreover, CO, NOx,...

The textile industry is the main source of environmental pollution in terms quality and quantity. It consumes large amounts water (200 m3/ tonne products), around 90% quantity wastewater. Improper disposal wastewater will cause serious problems due to presence heavy metals waste which adversely affect aquatic organisms. To analyze, concentration (batik) was collected from 15 small, medium, larg...

Due to the high capacity of food factories, a lot waste is generated. presence nutrients in them can increase pollution sewerage network and cause environmental problems. To animal feed, grain be used produce fertilizer, compost, fuel, soil cover, etc. The natural pigment lycopene, thickeners, proteins, etc., produced from seeds skin tomato paste factory waste. In present paper, soybean oil res...
