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 ...

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 ...

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.

Ecotoxicological characteristic of a soil polluted by radioactive elements and heavy metals before and after its bioremediation

Journal of Geochemical Exploration, 2014
Abstract Cinnamonic soils from southeastern Bulgaria are heavily polluted with radionuclides (uranium, radium) and toxic heavy metals (copper and lead) due to the aerial transportation of fine particles from flotation tailing dumps to the soil surface.

Spatial gradient of human health risk from exposure to trace elements and radioactive pollutants in soils at the Puchuncaví-Ventanas industrial complex, Chile

Environmental Pollution, 2016
The Punchuncaví Valley in central Chile, heavily affected by a range of anthropogenic emissions from a localized industrial complex, has been studied as a model environment for evaluating the spatial gradient of human health risk, which are mainly caused by trace elemental pollutants in soil.

Binary and ternary polymer–strontium complexes and the capture of radioactive strontium‐90 from the polluted soil of the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2002
AbstractThe interaction of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with strontium ions and the binding of strontium ions by equimolar interpolymer complexes (IPCs) of PAA and PEG were studied. The stability constants of binary polymer–metal complexes were determined.

[Specific Features of Radioactive Pollution of Soils of Catchment Areas of Lake Shablish (Distant Zone of the East Ural Radioactive Trace)].

Radiatsionnaia biologiia, radioecologiia, 2016
Specific features of 90Sr and 137Cs distribution and accumulation in soil cuts of superaqueous and eluvial positions of catchment areas of Lake Shablish located in a distant zone of the East Ural radioactive trace are considered. Some physical and chemical characteristics of the soils were defined.

Radioactivity Concentrations in Dust and Soil of Enhanced Occurring Natural Radionuclides and Their Transfer Factors to Urban Trees in Phosphate Polluted Area

Arab Journal of Nuclear Sciences and Applications, 2019
A survey was carried out to determine the activity concentration levels from the naturally occurring radionuclides 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K in four different areas affected to varying degrees by TE-NORM activity (Al-Nasr quarry for phosphate) by using of The High Purity Germanium Detector (HPGD) with consideration for the background level.
