Abstract:

Runoff from highways contains significant loads of heavy metals and hydrocarbons. According to German regulations, it should be infiltrated over embankments to support groundwater-recharge. To investigate the decontaminating effect of greened embankments, soil-monoliths from highways with high traffic densities were taken. Soils were analyzed to characterize the contamination in relation to distance and depth for lead, zinc, copper, cadmium, PAH and MOTH. Lysimeters were charged in the field and laboratory with highway runoff to study the effluents under defined conditions. Concentrations of p

Abstract:

Roadside phytocenoses along the right-of-way of highways in Minsk and the Minsk region are described. The identified syntaxa belong to 3 classes – Polygono-Poetea annuae, Artemisietea vulgaris and Molinio-Arrhenatheretea, including 4 orders, 5 unions, 11 associations and 2 unranked communities. The presence of identified phytocenoses (13 pcs.) reflects differences in growing conditions within the right-of-way – position in the right-of-way (ditches, slopes, etc.), intensity of soil erosion, salinization due to the use of de-icing reagents and other anthropogenic factors. An assessment was made

Abstract:

Heavy metal pollution has been a problem of concern in soil ecology in recent decades. This study evaluated the physico-chemical characteristics and heavy metal contents in roadside soil samples of Tumfure main market, Gombe, Nigeria. The soil samples were collected from six different sampling points with a control sample each by handpicking, this was followed by oven-drying, ground to fine grain, and then sieved using a 2 mm mesh sieve. The pH, electrical conductivity and bulk density were carried out on the soil samples, sieve and sedimentation method were used to determine the soil texture.

A detailed study was conducted to determine the current statues of the heavy metals in roadside dusts collected from universities in Beijing, China. Twelve universities were selected and analyzed to determine the occurrence, distribution, and assessment of heavy metals in roadside dusts. The results showed that Cr, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb exhibited higher metal concentrations than the local soil background values, indicating that the pollution may come from anthropogenic input. The assessment by Geoaccumulation Index (Igeo) indicates that Cr and Ni are at the unpolluted level, Cu and Zn at the sligh

Urban soils have been changed much by human impacts in terms of structure, composition and use. This review paper gives a general introduction into changes from compaction, mixing, water retention, nutrient inputs, sealing, gardening, and pollution. Because pollutions in particular have caused concerns in the past, metal pollutions and platinum group metal inputs have been treated in more detail. Though it is not possible to cover the entire literature done on this field, it has been tried to give examples from all continents, regarding geochemical background levels.

Public roads and all their activities interact with the environment outside. The interaction was related to transportation pollutants and their recipient bodies, plants, air, and soil. The interaction of these environmental components can produce air pollution and requires prevention solutions. Plants are considered capable of weakening pollution; thus, this study aims to design a novel phytoarchitecture for public roads where roadside plants reduce air pollutants. The method for achieving this goal was based on selected empirical research, which was searched, collected, and selected using the

Health risk assessment of heavy metals in roadside grown foodcrops consumed by humans is a very good technique because such assessment would provide information about any threat regarding heavy metal contamination. Plant and corresponding soil samples were collected for trace metal analysis to ascertain potential health risks. The non-significant differences of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) levels among the selected growth stages shows that the levels of Pb and Cd in the foodcrops were not influenced by the growth stages. However, Pb had the highest plant uptake factor (PUF), soil-plant transfer
