measurements of pb, cu, zn, as, ni, hg, and fe heavy metals and major elements and components such as ca, hco3, so4, na, k, mg and cl in soluble rain fractions were performed on rainwater collected at arak plain during the rainy seasons of 2012. concentrations of the heavy metals in the soluble fractions decreased for fe, pb, zn, ni, cu, as and hg, respectively and the major elements and compon...

Altogether 20 groundwater samples were collected around the Lakan Pb and Zn mine in Iran. Samples were analyzed for 8 constituents including Fe, Pb, Hg, Mn, Zn, CN, SO4 and Cl using standard method. The results show that the average concentrations of constituents were 0.01, 0.60, 0.10, 0.01, 0.40, 35, 0.01 and 5.95 mg/kg for Fe, Mn, Pb, Zn, Hg, SO4, CN and Cl, respectively. The computed contami...

background : airborne particulate matter is one of the most important atmospheric pollutants. tile sources of particulate matter in the atmosphere are divided into two groups; 1) natural sources and 2) anthropogenic sources. the important components of airborne particulate matter and invarying concentrations are the ubiquitous components of the lower atmosphere. heavy metals are mainly emitted ...

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...
