present survey studies intensity of heavy metals pollution (ca, fe, ni, cd, pb, zn, as, hg) in the sediments of bamdezh wetland. the main objective of the study is to quantify heavy metal pollution intensity in the wetland. other objectives of the study are separation of natural and anthropogenic heavy metal pollution and identification of the origin of heavy metals. results of this study shows...

Backgrounds & objectives: Contamination of the environment by heavy metals, pollute water and agricultural products. The aggregation of these metals will cause various diseases for human. Therefore, it is important to study how to make them safe. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of starch-iron oxide nanocomposite in removing two heavy metals, nickel and cadmium, from wast...

Soil contamination by heavy metals has increased noticeably within the past years. Unlike organic compounds, metals cannot degrade; therefore effective cleanup is required to reduce its toxicity. This experiment was undertaken to investigate the comparative potential of Panicum maximum and Axonopus compressus to bioremediate zinc polluted soils, the impact of Zn on the antioxidant defense syste...

Water pollution caused by toxic elements is one of the most important environmental problems in the world. Heavy metals are toxic to human and dangerous for the environment. The objectives of this study were: the effects of chelating agents on heavy metals extraction from polluted water were carried out to examine. In different concentrations : 0.01, 0.05, 0.1 mg/l of Chelating agents: Ethylene...

abstract with increasing population, mine activities for metal proceeding are also increasing, so environment will be influenced by contaminant especially heavy metals. in situ immobilization of heavy metals using inexpensive amendments is considered as a simple and cost-effective approach for reducing heavy metal contamination. in this research we used sequential extraction for assessing reduc...
