Updated facility‐level inventory and LCIA of the public electricity grid in Ontario, Canada
Abstract As the composition of Ontario's electricity grid will change over time, it is important to have a comprehensive understanding of the environmental impacts of Ontario's electricity grid as it stands today. However, publicly available information on impacts of Ontario's electricity grid is available only in aggregate from government sources.

Arsenic Carcinogenesis in the Skin
Chronic arsenic poisoning is a world public health issue. Long-term exposure to inorganic arsenic (As) from drinking water has been documented to induce cancers in lung, urinary bladder, kidney, liver and skin in a dose-response relationship.

Critical mineral removal from mining‐impacted waters using microalgal biomass
Abstract Rising demand for critical minerals has led to increased mining and mineral processing activities, resulting in the release of metal‐contaminated waters requiring treatment. Conventional treatment methods, such as lime neutralization, effectively precipitate metals; however, they are less effective at low metal concentrations and produce large

Can Rural Communities Comply with the New Arsenic Standard for Drinking Water? [PDF]
Our primary concern in this paper is to determine to what extent small communities have difficulty meeting the new stricter 2001 standard for arsenic levels in their drinking water. To do this we survey water users in rural Minnesota communities that had

Steady-state groundwater arsenic concentrations in reducing aquifers
Arsenic is a common soil and groundwater contaminant in much of the world. Groundwater arsenic is commonly derived from the reductive dissolution of arsenic-bearing iron oxides.
