Contamination of surface and groundwater resources to heavy metal due mining activities is a worldwide major issue because its probable health risks local residents. In the present research, we measured concentrations As, Cd Cr in 26 water samples collected from 13 rural areas vicinity mines Sabzevar, Iran, during January 2019 estimated potential among Heavy were analysed using an atomic absorption spectrometer compared with guidelines set by WHO. The results showed that As concentration...

Abstract Contamination of farmland soils by trace elements (TEs) has become an international issue concerning food safety and human health risks. In the present research, concentrations TEs including cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn) iron (Fe) in 16 farmlands were determined Gonabad, Iran. addition, risks due to exposure from assessed. Moreover, soil contamination likelihood was evaluated based on various indices factor...

Elevated levels of metal(loid)s in soil may pose potential threats to the ecosystem and can be harmful for human health. The concentrations As, Cd, Pb, Cr Ni were determined agricultural collected from 45 pistachio orchards around Feizabad city, Khorasan Razavi province, Iran using ICP-OES. Also, pollution indices including contamination factor (CF), load index (PLI) geo-accumulation (Igeo) evaluated. In addition, non-carcinogenic carcinogenic risk estimated. mean order = 466.256 > 120.848...

Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to find the optimum parameters for COD and TOC removal from saline wastewaters using electrochemical oxidation process. The independent variables considered were reaction time, pH, salt concentration, voltage. Optimization of performed by analysis variance (ANOVA). Quadratic regression equation suggested as a model prediction chemical oxygen demand (COD) total organic carbon (TOC) efficiency. results indicated that efficiencies at optimal...

High and low levels of fluoride in drinking waters have been considered as a major public health issue recent years. This cross-sectional study was conducted over five consecutive years (from 2012 to 2016) the water distribution network Mashhad city, Iran with objectives determining perform risk assessment among residents area. Water samples were taken from 30 stations analyzed using UV-visible spectrophotometer. The mean annual concentrations all during lower than respective maximum...

High concentrations of fluoride and nitrate in drinking water cause significant impacts on human health. The aim this research was to estimate the risk health induced by due intake groundwater through Sabzevar city, Iran. Eighteen samples were collected from nine wells region during 2018 determine concentrations. non-cancer risk, reflected hazard quotient (HQ) index (HI), assessed for adults, children infants. had overall mean levels range 0.197–1.32 mg/L 8.8–47.2 mg/L, respectively. All...

Discharge of heavy metals from industrial complexes especially tanneries has considerably increased the levels in water and soil worldwide. This work was aimed to determine metal (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb Zn) contamination surface water, groundwater soils site surrounding Moghan's tannery Ardabil, Iran. Fifteen composite samples (totally 45) were collected site. In this study, determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) results compared national international standards....
