Landfills, especially those poorly managed, can negatively affect the environment and human beings through chemical contamination of soils waters. This study investigates a historical municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill situated in heart residential zone capital Slovakia, Bratislava, with an emphasis on metal (loid) its consequences. Regardless depth, many exhibited high concentrations, mainly Cd, Cu, Pb, Sb, Sn Zn (up to 24, 2620, 2420, 134, 811 6220 mg/kg, respectively), classifying them...
Abstract Alteration of wet and dry periods affects soil geochemical properties that drive contaminant availability mobility. Consequently, the efficiency remediation may vary, thus management needs to consider these variations. This study reveals effect moisture manipulation on behaviour toxic metalloids antimony (Sb) arsenic (As) immobilisation nanoscale zero‐valent iron (nZVI), biochar (BC) BC modified by or iron/ferrous sulphide (nZVI‐BC Fe/FeS‐BC). Soil samples from an abandoned Sb...
The knowledge of sorption-desorption processes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in natural solids is essential to predict the fate, transport, and environmental risks these pollutants. In this study, effect was investigated temperature on three PAHs (naphthalene, phenanthrene, pyrene) two with different organic carbon contents. all cases, sorption isotherms obtained could be well described by linear model. analysis based measured corresponding equilibrium partition coefficients (Kp)...
MCPA sorption and desorption in five surface soils (denoted as A1-5), three bottom sediments (S1-3), two river (L1-2) one subsurface soil (SS) at initial concentrations aqueous solution - C0 = 0.5 10 mg/l were studied. No significant effect of the concentration on equilibrium distribution between soil/sediment was observed. The difference coefficient KD found only case sediment (S2). A simple regression analysis properties indicated that most important property which determined variation is...
