present study is an experimental-laboratory study which the data collection is based on the collected data of field and documentation studies. this research, the quality process of Kan River’s resources based on the examined results of qualitative parameters will be analyzed in details. For this purpose, first of all, the results of the analysis of […]
Particulate Matter (PM) is the primary culprit behind reduced air quality in urban areas. Although PM consists of various compounds, heavy metals are essential constituents because of their harmful effects on human health. The purpose of this study was to determine heavy metals concentrations in atmospheric PM10 in ambient air of Ahvaz, Iran. and also […]
Pollution of water by heavy metals is a major problem such as mercury, lead, cadmium, cobalt, etc. The presence of toxic metals in the environment has detrimental effects on human and animal health and disrupts the balance and order of the ecosystem. Therefore, it is necessary to study the ways to eliminate these pollutants. The […]
In the present study, the potential adverse effects of heavy metals in the soil of Ahvaz oil field were evaluated. 9 soil samples were collected and chemical digestion was performed. Global standard methods was used to collect samples and measure metals. Heavy metals Ni, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu were measured. and geochemical indicators were evaluated. […]
Heavy metals contamination is regarded as an environmental pollutant which could be transferred from water sources to soil, plants, animals and human. This study aimed to investigate the removal of lead and nickel from water sources by activated alumina as a low-cost adsorbent. In this regard, a sample of artificial effluent with concentrations of 5 […]
Water is an essential component in the world. The presence of heavy metals in water has dramatic effects on health and ecological process in the environment. Heavy metal pollution in water bodies is an existing and developing problem in the world. There are several methods for removing these pollutions in water. A photocatalytic degradation is […]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical properties of downstream water of Aras river dams. Sampling was performed from early 2018-2019 in selected stations. Heavy metals were measured by atomic absorption spectrometry. Nitrate, nitrite and total dissolved solids concentrations were also measured by spectrophotometer. Concentrations of Ca, Na and K were measured […]
