in this research a pot experiment was carried out to investigate the remediation ability of e. camaldulensis dehnh inlead-zinc (pb-zn) contaminated soil. the study also investigated the effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid(edta) and diethylenetrinitrilopentaacetic acid (dtpa) on the phytoremediation efficiency of the plant species, andharvest time as a suitable dose of chelating agents wa...

heavy metal accumulation in the aquatic ecosystems is a main concern which threats human health. in this study two commercial fish species, rutilus kutum and chelon aurata were selected for assessing heavy metal (cd, pb, zn) concentrations in gill and liver tissues at babolsar’s coast, the southern caspian sea, iran. babolsar is one of the important fishery stations in the southern caspian sea....

in present study we determine the zinc and lead levels in human blood samples by differential pulse polarography under optimum experimental conditions (ph=7.5, scan rate=5mv/s and pulse amplitude=50mv) the polarographic reduction peaks of zn and pb were examinedin the -0.72 v and-0.15 respectively. the zinc and lead content can be determined by in comparison with their standard solutions. accor...

Zinc and lead are the two most widely used non-ferrous metals after aluminium and copper as vital materials in everyday life. They are mined and smelted in many countries in both the developed and developing world. Both pyrometallurgical as well as hydrometallurgical methods are used for production of lead zinc depending on the type of raw material used as a charge. In the pyrometallurgical pro...

The lead and zinc sample from Goosh-e-Fill mine with 2.4%Pb, 8.0%Zn and 10.0% Fe, was used in different flotation experiments to recover lead and zinc minerals. The valuable minerals in prepared sample were oxidized and the results showed that the lead minerals floated at pH= 9.5 and 11.5, probably it can be due to existence of two or more types of lead minerals. The best result was achieved fo...

We provide here information on the distribution of copper, zinc, lead, gold, silver, barium, arsenic, antimony, mercury, selenium and tellurium in the Moore and Monte Negro high-sulfidation epithermal deposits in the Pueblo Viejo district, Dominican Republic. Moore and Monte Negro are funnel-shaped zones of advanced argillic alteration and precious-metal mineralization which extend to depths of...

phytoextraction is a remediation technology that uses plants to remove heavy metals from soil. the success of a phytoextraction process depends on adequate plant yield (aerial parts) and high metal concentrations in plant shoots. a pot experiment was conducted to investigate the combination effects of plants [sunflower (helianthus annuus) and canola (brassica napus)] with soil treatments (manur...
