Abstract:

Large amounts of solid urban waste (SUW), sometimes containing trace metal (TM), are used to fertilize agricultural soils. The aim of this study was to assess concentrations of TM in peri-urban agricultural soils exposed to SUW inputs around Bobo-Dioulasso. Composite samples of fourteen soil profiles (0-20 cm, 20-40 cm and 40-60 cm) were collected in the classified Dindéréso forest in the outskirts of Bobo-Dioulasso. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP/MS) was used to analyze TM concentrations in the samples. Concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn varied broadly according to

Abstract:

The monitoring and tracking of urban air pollution is a challenging environmental issue. The approach of synchronous 3-D detection of wind and pollution using a solo coherent Doppler wind lidar (CDWL) is developed and demonstrated. The 3-D distribution of pollutant is depicted by the backscatter coefficient based on signal intensity of CDWL. Then, a high-resolution wind field is derived to track the local air pollution source with its diffusion and to analyze transboundary air pollution episodes. The approach is experimentally implemented in a chemical industry park. Smoke plumes caused by poi

Abstract:

The traffic related environmental pollution problems have attracted a lot of attention. In this study, contents of eight trace elements along with Fe and Mn in the farmland soil near a trafficway of Suzhou, Anhui province, China have been measured for the pollution assessment and source identification (along with quantification). The results show that iron is the most abundant element, followed by manganese, zinc, chromium, nickel, copper, lead, arsenic, cobalt and cadmium. They have coefficients of variation range between 0.028 and 0.281, indicating that some of them might have multi-sources.

Abstract:

Transport is one of the most important sources of environmental pollution. More and more information has shown that one of the greatest sources of emissions from transport are emissions related to the release of microplastics from tyres. This is one of the most underestimated sources of emissions into the environment. In this study, environmental samples are analysed for the presence of these particles. For this purpose, optical methods and spectroscopic methods are used. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is used to identify synthetic rubber, most likely derived from car tyres. A

Abstract:

The expansion of intensive agriculture has created substantial pollution loads in many water basins worldwide. Irrigation generates percolation and leaching of salts and other damaging substances from soils into water bodies. These pollution emissions from irrigated agriculture are non-point, precluding the identification of the polluter, the location of the source, and the amount of the emission loads. There is a large body of literature analyzing different instruments to deal with non-point pollution problems. However, the implementation of the regulations is not an easy task due to the part

Here, we compared two distinct large-scale field bioremediation experiments, located at the Canadian high-Arctic stations of Alert (ex situ approach) and Eureka (in situ approach).

Here, different types of inland wetlands, including the river wetland, constructed wetland, and lake wetland, were selected to explore the pollution patterns of MPs therein. Results showed that the abundance of MPs in wetland soil ranges from 532 to 4309 i
