Abstract:
Heavy metal pollution in groundwater has become a widespread issue worldwide. However, information on heavy metal pollution in groundwater of inland river basins in NW China remains limited. This study evaluated pollution and ecological health risks of heavy metals in groundwater of the Zhangye Basin, which is a typical inland river basin in NW China. The concentrations of heavy metals in groundwater were relatively low. Heavy metals in groundwater of the northeastern edge and western regions of the study area showed a higher concentration than those of the remaining parts. Iron was the domina

Abstract:
Groundwater is a major source of drinking and agricultural water supply in arid and semiarid regions. Poor groundwater quality can be a threat to human health especially when it is combined with hazardous pollutants like heavy metals. In this study, an innovative method involving entropy weighted groundwater quality index for both physicochemical and heavy metal content was used for a semiarid region. The entropy weighted index was used to assess the groundwater’s suitability for drinking and irrigation purposes. Thus, groundwater from 19 sampling sites was used for analyses of physicochemical

Abstract:
In conditions of increasing anthropogenic pressure on the objects of the natural environment, an objective assessment of the hydrochemical state of water bodies is necessary, taking into account background values of heavy metals, the presence of which is associated only with natural factors. Therefore, the aim of our studies was to determine the concentration of heavy metals in groundwater lying in different geological and geomorphological conditions in a territory remote from the large industrial centers – Dnipro and Pavlograd.

Abstract:
Ground waters may undergo a process of contamination in various ways, but the presence and amount of heavy metals in them can be indicative of their purity and usage. Apart from that, the heavy metals are among the most widely spread pollutants in nature, and their presence in groundwater indicates the existence of natural or anthropogenic sources of contamination. Ground waters polluted with heavy metals can also be very toxic and harmful to human health, and very damaging to the environment as well. In this article, the concentrations of eight toxic heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Cu, Al, Ni, Pb, Zn,

Abstract:
The principal impediment in the remediation of contaminated sites and in the protection of groundwater quality is the lack of appropriate and reasonable standards for heavy metals in soils. There are no standards applicable to predict the potential for groundwater contamination by heavy metals in Taiwan. Lack of these soil standards may result in subjective judgment regarding the remediation needed. The migration of heavy metals through the unsaturated zone to groundwater is controlled by sorption to the soil, a highly pH-dependent process, and the hydrological regime. Soil sorption behavior i

Abstract:
Land treatment of waste biological solids (sludge) has been practiced many years and there have been many studies conducted to determine the applicability of this disposal technique. This paper is based upon an investigation which was conducted to determine if the heavy metals which are associated with sludge are stabilized and contained within a landspread area where no agricultural crops are grown. Sludge/soil mixture samples were analyzed for heavy metal concentrations and cation exchange capacity (CEC) on a routine basis to determine if the heavy metals were remaining in an insoluble form.

Metal contamination in groundwater aquifers poses risks to human health as well as other life forms. Previous laboratory experiments have demonstrated that bacteria found in geologic settings like aquifers are likely to adsorb metal contaminants and attenuate metal migration. However, as bacteria can also migrate through the groundwater aquifer a better understanding of the combined effect of these two processes is required. The aim of this laboratory study was to a) explore the affinity bacteria exhibit towards metals and porous media of varying composition, b) investigate the effect of miner
