Persistent organic pollutants, heavy metals and radioactivity in the urban soil of Priština City, Kosovo and Metohija

Chemosphere, 2017
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), heavy metals content and radioactivity levels were measured in 27 soil samples collected from Priština, the capital of Kosovo and Metohija. The sixteen PAHs, twelve OCPs and six PCBs congeners were determined by gas chromatography system with ...

Adsorption of uranyl ion on hexagonal boron nitride for remediation of real U-contaminated soil and its interpretation using random forest.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Acid leaching has been widely applied to treat contaminated soil, however, it contains several inorganic pollutants. The decommissioning of nuclear power plants introduces radioactive and soluble U(VI), a substance posing chemical toxicity to humans. Our

A Water-Efficient Artificial Phytoextraction Technology for the Remediation of Cesium-Contaminated Soil Inspired by Plant Transpiration and the Hydrologic Cycle.

Environmental Science and Technology
Cesium ions (Cs+) are notable radioactive contaminants hazardous to humans and the environment. Among various remediation methods, adsorption is a practical way to remove Cs+ from water, and Prussian blue (PB) is well-known as an efficient Cs+ adsorbent.

Synergistic effect of oxalic acid and siderophore on uranium fractions and microbial community traits in rhizosphere soil enhances uranium accumulation in plant roots.

Science of the Total Environment
Chelating agent contributes to the remediation of heavy metal contaminations, but it remains unclear how they affect the transformation of radioactive pollutants and microbial traits in phytoremediation. We comprehensively investigated on the uranium (U)

Soil radioactive pollution in Falluja-Iraq

CR-39, Katı Hal Nükleer Yol Dedektörünü uygulayarak, Felluce Şehri'ndeki toprağın radyoaktivitesi, sırasıyla 0-20, 20-40 ve 40-60 cm'lik toprak derinliklerinde ölçülmüştür. Toprak örnekleri 2014 yılının yaz mevsimi boyunca toplanmıştır. Yüzeyde, 0-20 cm derinliğinde, 1.1-2.5 ppm'lik tükenmiş uranyum konsantrasyonuna karşılık gelen ...

Composition, Release, and Transformation of Earthworm Tissue-Bound Residues of Tetrabromobisphenol A in Soil.

Environmental Science and Technology
Earthworms accumulate organic pollutants to form earthworm tissue-bound residues (EBRs); however, the composition and fate of EBRs in soil remain largely unknown.

A Policy Driven Vegetative Foodchain Model: Soil-Plant Transfer in Chinese Organic Soil

Volume 8: Decontamination and Decommissioning, Radiation Protection, and Waste Management
Radionuclides can be released into the terrestrial environment from nuclear facilities through particulate matter or gases. The deposition of radionuclides in vegetation and soil is the starting point for their transfer into the terrestrial environment

Comparison of Impact of Residual Radioactivity Versus Pesticide-Derived Soil Pollution on Genotoxicity

Russian Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2020
A comparative analysis was performed of the impact on living organisms, in terms of genotoxicity, of two factors, namely, radiation (residual 137Cs) and a chemical factor (pesticides) . The experiment was conducted both on individual pesticide samples and the aqueous extracts of soil samples.
