Coal mining is inevitable for economic growth of a country, but at the same time deteriorates the quality of the environment. Open cast mine, especially affects the top soil most negatively. In the present study, soil samples from three representative areas of mining viz proposed, operational and abandoned sites from Charhi and Kuju of Jharkhand were collected and analysed for physicochemical p...

Areas polluted by heavy metals in soil may pose a major risk to human health and ecological environment safety. In this study, 89 samples were collected from four potato producing areas (Libo, Chishui, Panxian Weining) Guizhou Province, China, the concentrations of 9 analyzed measured. The aims study was evaluate pollution index some potato-producing Province using geoaccumulation method, load ...

The alteration of hydrologic condition of Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) after impoundment has caused numerous environmental changes. This study investigated the distribution, accumulation and potential sources of the seldom monitored trace elements (SMTEs) in sediments from three tributaries (ZY, MX and CT) and one mainstream (CJ) in TGR during different seasons. The average contents of most SMT...

Contamination of soils with heavy metals is widespread and poses a long-term risk to ecosystem health. Abandoned and active mining sites contain residues from ore-processing operations that are characterised by high concentrations of heavy metals. The distribution and mobility characteristics of heavy metals (As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) in paddy soil samples from Kočani Field (Macedonia) using ICP-...

The contamination of riverbed sediments by heavy metals has assumedserious problems due to their toxicity and accumulative behavior. The present studyinvestigated the concentrations of heavy metals from the bottom sediments of ShitalakhyaRiver to understand the level of contamination and their distribution. The averageconcentrations of heavy metals Al, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, As, Cu, Co, Cr, and Zn are ...

Since oil is the primary source of vanadium in environment and crude has a correspondingly high percentage vanadium. Vanadium crucial as sign contamination. Twenty soil samples were taken from various locations surrounding East Baghdad field Iraq during February 2022 then analyzed to determine effects industrialization along with urbanization-related pollutants. The using spectrophotometry anal...
