Thirteen road dust and four soil samples were analyzed using instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) to determine the elemental composition of collected from Islamabad Expressway. The amounts most elements determined generally in lower range global data with exception Ce, Nd, Sn Zr, which measured at higher concentrations Islamabad. magnitudes Enrichment Factors (EFs) showed that area around Expressway is low moderately polluted especially by such as Mg Sb. Elemental health risk was...

Using biomolecule-rich plant extracts, the conversion of metal ions to oxide nanoparticles via abiogenic approach is highly intriguing, environmentally friendly, and quick. The inherent inclination extracts function as capping agents in insitu synthesis. In this study, biogenic zinc (ZnO−NPs) were synthesized using an aqueous leaf extract from Moringaoleifera. ZnO−NPs then mixed with carboxylated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) create a CNTs/biogenic ZnO composite asol–gel method. CNTs/ZnO displayed...

Abstract Soil pollution is directly related to the urbanization of an area. Murree a renowned tourist attraction in Pakistan. In recent years, has been developing rapidly, raising levels. this study, elemental analysis soil from urban areas was performed using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and analyzer, while activities naturally occurring radionuclides (NORMs) were also measured Gamma Spectrometry. It found that average metal concentrations decreased...
