This study assessed radon (222Rn) levels in drinking water sources the Nizampur basin and their potential health risks for local community. We analyzed 48 samples on-site using RAD7. Additionally, we measured pH, temperature (T), total dissolved solids (TDS), redox (ORP), electrical conductivity (EC) with a multiparameter analyzer. Results showed T, TDS, ORP, EC ranging from 7.2 to 8, 17 26 °C, 333 1130 mg/l, –56 284 mV, 469 2370 µS/cm. 222Rn varied significantly (0.7–107 Bq/l, mean 23 ± 21,...
Heavy metal(loid)s (HM) including Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Co, Ni, and Pb were analyzed using ICP-MS in the groundwater of Khyber District. Two indexical approaches applied for evaluation HM contamination toxicity groundwater. The study also examined health risks, sources, spatial dependence these HM. results revealed that Pb, concentrations violated drinking water guidelines 44.26%, 52.45%, 1.63%, 9.83% samples, while rest well within limits. Based on it was observed 18.03%, 6.55%, 13.1%...
Abstract Heavy metal(loid)s (HM) was considered hazardous contaminants owing to their toxicity, persistency, and bio-accumulative nature in the environment. The current study aimed examine HM concentrations coal, coal dust, surrounding soil along with mines Hangu Kurram Districts. Using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, samples of were analyzed for concentrations. Coal, showed maximum mean 62100, 52610, 45300 mg/kg iron (Fe) a minimum 1.14, 0.9, 2.0 molybdenum (Mo), respectively. dust...
Irrigation with wastewater is becoming a tradition due to increased demand of freshwater for industrial purposes.Therefore, it vital investigate the quality effluents Peshawar city at all points intended irrigation purposes.Hence, trace metal contents in from were assessed.A total 24 samples on hourly basis h collected one each Shahi Khatta, Muhammad Zai drain, and Bara Gate effluents, respectively.These then analyzed like As, Cd, Cr, Pb, Fe, Mn, Ni, Ag, phosphorus, Zn.This study showed that...
