The contamination of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in road dust of large industrial cities
is extremely serious. Determining the priority risk control factors of PTE contamination in …

Road transportation significantly contributes to heavy metals (HMs) in the atmosphere. The
introduction of HMs into the environment is a major global ecotoxicological concern. The …

Lead (Pb) from different sources accumulate in the irrigation water, irrigated soil and in
different parts of plants. Reports show contradictory findings and high variability of lead …

Heavy metal (loid) s (HM) are ascertained hazardous to the environment due to their toxic,
bioaccumulative, and persistent nature. Coal, dust, and surrounding soil near coal mines (n …

This study examined potentially toxic elements (PTE) of water and sediments in the Darband
and Samana streams of Hangu District. Darband and Samana streams are the main fluvial …

Pot experiment was performed aimed to assess the comparative role of charcoal, biochar,
hydrochar and thiourea-vegetable modified biochar at 1 and 2% doses, and< 1 mm particle …

This study investigated the levels of fluoride (F) and nitrate (NO 3) and their associated
potential health implications via the consumption of drinking water from different sources …

The risk to human health from heavy metals is primarily associated with the consumption of
foodstuffs that are contaminated with these metals. This study aimed to assess the health …

Soil pollution by heavy metals can cause continuing damage to ecosystems and the human
body. In this study, we collected nine fresh topsoil samples and 18 maize samples (including …

Exposure to heavy metal (loid) s (HM) through contaminated food chains poses significant
health risks to humans. While soil amendments are known to reduce HM bioavailability, their …
