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 ...

pollution of water and soils by heavy metals is an emerging problem in industrialized countries.the present study was conducted to investigate the heavy metals concentration in water and sedimentsamples from ship breaking sites of sitakunda to assess the potential ecological risk posed by heavy metalusing different methods. heavy metals concentration was analyzed by atomic absorption spectrosco...

Background and Purpose: In the environment, heavy metals in high concentration are toxic to most organisms. Human activities have continuously increased the concentration of these metals in the environment such as soils. In the present study, soil samples collected from Ahvaz IV industrial estate in Khuzestan Province. Materials and Methods: The soil samples were taken from 9 ...

the concentration of selected trace metals (fe, cd, cu, pb, and zn) in 30surface sediments were measured using atomic absorption spectrometer to investigatethe spatial and seasonal variations of trace metals along kanyakumari coast, india. toassess the environmental risk of trace metals, enrichment factor, geo-accumulation index,pollution load index, and ecological risk index have been calculat...
