Abstract:
The concentrations, distributions, and associated risks of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soils of dumpsite and its vicinities were investigated. Composite samples were taken from the dumpsite and distances (15, 30, 60, 90, 120m) away from the foot of the dumpsite; as well as from a control site (2000m away). The determinations of PAHs were done with gas chromatography couple to mass spectrometer (GC-MS) after extractions with dichloromethane (DCM) and a silica gel clean-up. Total PAHs (Σ16PAHs) concentrations in the dumpsite soil and that of the control were 930.05, and 31.15 µg/k

This study was designed to assess the impact of solid waste on soil quality in Akure. Four (4) dumpsites and a control site were selected for the study. Three (3) sample collection points were mapped out from the selected dumpsites; at the base of the dumpsite; 20m from the base (to determine the level of contamination within the dumpsite) and 50m away from the dumpsite (to determine the impact on soil away from the dumpsite). Using a soil auger soil samples were collected at depths of 0-15cm (top soil) and 15 30m (sub soil) from each sample collection point and the control site. A total of tw

Abstract:
The physical and chemical properties of soils and plants distribution in metropolitan dumpsites in Uyo, Nigeria were studied. Soil samples were collected from two popular dumpsites and analysed using standard scientific procedures. The Results showed that there were slight desparities in the nutrient profile of these dumpsites. Generally, the nutrients levels were high and soil heavy metals concentration were found to be within permissible limits. This study also revealed the monospecific nature of dumpsite 1 and higher species presence corresponding with increased nutrient levels in dumpsite

Dumpsites in Uyo and most cities in Nigeria are used nutrients rich soils for cultivating fruits and vegetables without regards to the risk of toxic metal pollution by the wastes. This development necessitated the research on the assessment of the impact of municipal and rural dumpsites on the metal levels of the underlying soils, the relationship between the dumpsite- soil metal content and the rate of bio-accumulation by plants, the effect of plant specie and plant part on the rate of metal uptake.

Assessment of some physical and chemical properties of cocoa pod husk dumpsites in Etung, Nigeria, was carried out to ascertain the particle size distribution, nutrients, and some soil fertility indices. Five cocoa-growing communities were purposely selected for sampling. Soil samples were collected at 0–25 cm and 25–50 cm in each cocoa farm dumpsite and non-dumpsites in the cocoa plantations. A total of 20 samples were collected, processed, and subjected to standard laboratory analysis.

Abstract:
The solid waste dumpsites of pulp and paper industries are prone to be turned into degraded lands due to the loss of vegetation cover. Such sites often possess drought, salinity and pH stresses as well as heavy metal contamination. Restoration of top soil by creating vegetation cover has proved to be the most sustainable approach to check land degradation. Therefore, to find some stress-tolerant species capable of creating vegetation cover in paper mill dumpsites, a vegetation composition study was conducted in a paper mill dumpsite.

Aim: To assess the physiochemical properties of Dumpsites soils from Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO). Study Design: This was a simple randomized sampling study technique. Methodology: Soil samples were obtained from three different dumpsites located within the school namely Girls’ hostel dumpsite, Ihiagwa dumpsite and Eziobodo dumpsite. The soil's physicochemical characteristics were ascertained by air drying it and then sieving it through a 2 mm sieve. The Bouyoucos hydrometer method was used to determine the soil's texture.

Abstract:
It is an ordinary practice to cover the areas after brown-coal mining with natural topsoil cover (topsoiling). Topsoiling is removal one topsoil from agricultural land, forest or area with vegetation and excavating to another place with poor organic matter content or in our case the brown-coal mining dumpsite. Advantages of topsoiling include higher organic matter and greater available water-holding capacity and nutrient content. Content of potentially toxic elements is very low.

Abstract Rapid urbanisation coupled with poor waste management practices has led to biowaste accumulating in landfills and dumpsites in cities, far from the agricultural soils that it could fertilise. The mismanagement of biowaste is leading to the depletion of soils, pollution of water courses and emission of greenhouse gases. Meanwhile, the use of synthetic fertilisers is resulting in severe depletion of soil microbiology and causing almost irreversible damage to ecosystems. Biowaste is an abundant source of nutrients and energy that is available wherever humans live. By collecting biowaste
