Mobility and ecological risk assessment of heavy metals in surface sediments of Xiamen Bay and its adjacent areas,China 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3
Xiamen Bay (XMB) has received substantial loadings of pollutants from industrial and municipal wastewater discharged since
the 1980s. To assess ecological risks and the current spatial changes of metal contaminants in bottom surface sediments, 12
samples were collected. Samples were subjected to a total digestion technique and analyzed by ICP–OES for Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr,
and Cd, and by AFS for Hg and As. Among these metals, Zn had the highest values (68–268 mg kg−1), followed by Pb (27–71 mg kg−1), and lower concentrations were found for Cd (42–1,913 μg kg−1) and Hg (0–442 μg kg−1). In comparison with the average crustal abundance values, the results indicated that nearly half of the sediment samples
of XMB and its adjacent areas were contaminated by Cd, Pb, Zn, and As. Furthermore, based on the modified BCR sequential extraction
procedure, the chemical speciation of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, Hg, and As) in selected sediment samples were evaluated
in this study. Data from BCR sequential extractions indicated that Cd posed a medium ecological risk, whereas, Cr posed low
risk since its exchangeable and carbonate fractions were below 4%, and the mobility of heavy metals in XMB decreased in the
order Cd > Pb > Cu > Zn > Hg > As > Cr. By applying mean effects range median quotients (mERMQ), the results showed that Yuandang
Lagoon with mERMQ value >0.5 would be expected to have the greatest potential toxic risk in amphipod within XMB and its adjacent
areas. 相似文献

Trace metals (Cd,Pb, Cu,Zn and Ni) in sediment of the submarine pit Dragon ear (Soline Bay,Rogoznica, Croatia) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vertical profiles of trace metal (Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, Ni) concentrations, organic matter content, carbonate content and granulometric
composition were determined in two sediment cores from the submarine pit Dragon Ear (Middle Adriatic). Concentrations of the
analyzed metals (Cd: 0.06–0.12 mg kg−1, Pb: 28.5–67.3 mg kg−1, Zn: 17.0-65.4 mg kg−1, Cu: 21.1–51.9 mg kg−1, Ni: 27.8–40.2 mg kg−1) were in usual range for Adriatic carbonate marine sediments. Nevertheless, concentrations of Cu, Zn, and especially Pb in
the upper layer of sediments (top 12 cm) were higher than in bottom layer, while Cd and Ni concentration profiles were uniform.
Regression analysis and principal component analysis were used to interpret distribution of trace metals, organic matter and
carbonate content in sediment cores. Results of both analysis showed that concentrations of all trace metals in the core below
the entrance to the pit were significantly positively correlated with organic matter and negatively correlated with carbonate,
while in the core more distant from the entrance only Pb showed significant positive correlation with organic matter. Obtained
results indicated that, except for lead which was enriched in surface sediment, in the time of sampling (before the building
of the nautical marina) investigated area belonged to unpolluted areas. 相似文献

The Sarcheshmeh copper mine smelter plant is one of the biggest copper producers in Iran. Long-time operation of about 25 years
of the smelter plant causes release of potentially toxic heavy metals into the environment. In this paper, geochemical distribution
of toxic heavy metals in 28 soil samples was evaluated around the Sarcheshmeh smelter plant. Soils developed over the nonmineralized
and uncontaminated areas have an average background concentration of 41.25 mg kg−1 Cu, 26.6 mg kg−1 As, 12.7 mg kg−1 Pb, 0.9 mg kg−1 Sb, 1.9 mg kg−1 Mo, 1.7 mg kg−1 Sn, 0.2 mg kg−1 Cd, 0.15 mg kg−1 Bi, 235 mg kg−1 S and 73.4 mg kg−1 Zn, respectively. As a result of smelting process, the upper soil layers (0–5 cm) were polluted by Cu (>1,397 mg kg−1), Cd (>3.42 mg kg−1), S (>821 mg kg−1), Mo (>10.3 mg kg−1), Sb (>11.7 mg kg−1), As (>120.6 mg kg−1), Pb (>83.8 mg kg−1), Zn (>214.9 mg kg−1), and Sn (>3.7 mg kg−1), respectively. These values are much higher than the normal concentration of the elements in the uncontaminated soil layers.
The elemental values decrease with distance travelled away of the smelter plant, especially at minimum wind direction. Furthermore,
high contaminated values of Cu (8,430 mg kg−1), As (500 mg kg−1), Pb (331 mg kg−1), Mo (61 mg kg−1), Sb (56.2 mg kg−1), Zn (664 mg kg−1), Cd (17.2 mg kg−1), Bi (13.4 mg kg−1), and S (3,780 mg kg−1) were observed in the upper soil layers close to the smelting waste dumps. Sequential extraction analysis shows that about
270 mg kg−1 Cu, 28 mg kg−1 Pb, 50.33 mg kg−1 Zn, and 47.84 mg kg−1 As were adsorbed by Fe and Mn oxides. The carbonate phases include 151 mg kg−1 Cu, 28 mg kg−1 Pb, 25 mg kg−1 Zn, and 32.99 mg kg−1 As. Organic matter adsorbed 314.6 mg kg−1 Cu and 29.18 mg kg−1 Zn. 相似文献

Heavy metals pollution in the soil of an irregular urban settlement built on a former dumpsite in the city of Tijuana, Mexico 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Eustorgio C. Nava-Martínez Enrique Flores-García Heriberto Espinoza-Gomez Fernando T. Wakida 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2012,66(4):1239-1245
The aim of this study was to evaluate soil pollution by heavy metals in an irregular settlement built on a dumpsite. The soil
samples were analyzed for Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Ni. None of the concentrations found for the heavy metals analyzed were higher
than the established Mexican official standards for contaminated soils. The mean concentrations found for the analyzed metals
were as follows: 1.4 mg kg−1 for Cd, 4.7 in mg kg−1 for Cr, 304 mg kg−1 for Cu, 74 mg kg−1 for Pb and 6 mg kg−1 for Ni. The results of the geoacummulation index values show that the site was very polluted with Cu and Pb (class 7), polluted
to strongly polluted with Ni (class 4); moderately polluted to polluted with Cd (class 3), and moderately polluted with Cr
(class 1). The correlation analysis shows a high correlation between Pb and Cu (r
2 = 0.98), which would be explained if the main source of the polluting heavy metals was the result of electrical wire burning
to recover Copper. Principal component analysis shows three principal components. The first main component (PC1) encompasses
Cr, Cd, Pb and Cu. These heavy metals most likely have their origins from the open burning of municipal solid waste, tires
and wire. The other two components are encompassed by Cr (PC2) and Ni (PC3). The sources of these pollutants are more likely
related to the corrosion of junk metal objects and automobile use. 相似文献

Heavy metal concentrations and their possible sources in paddy soils of a modern agricultural zone,southeastern China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In a typical modern agricultural Zone of southeastern China, Haining City, 224 topsoil samples were collected from paddy fields
to measure the total concentrations of copper (Cu), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), arsenic
(As) and cobalt (Co). The total concentrations ranged from 15.30 to 78.40 mg kg−1 for Cu, 20.10 to 41.40 mg kg−1 for Pb, 54.98 to 224.4 mg kg−1 for Zn, 0.04 to 0.24 mg kg−1 for Cd, 54.90 to 197.1 mg kg−1 for Cr, 0.03 to 0.61 mg kg−1 for Hg, 3.44 to 15.28 mg kg−1 for As, and 7.17 to 19.00 mg kg−1 for Co. Chemometric techniques and geostatistics were utilized to quantify their spatial characteristics and define their
possible sources. All eight metals had a moderate spatial dependency except that Pb had a strong spatial dependency. Both
factor analysis and cluster analysis successfully classified the eight metals into three groups or subgroups, the first group
included Cu, Zn and Cr, the second group included Cd, As and Co, and the last group included Pb and Hg. The Cu, Zn and Cr
concentrations in majority samples were higher than their local background concentrations and they were highly correlated
(r > 0.80), indicating that they had similar pollution source and anthropic factor controlled their spatial distribution; the
Cd, As and Co concentrations in majority samples were lower than their local background concentrations, indicating that the
source of these elements was mainly controlled by natural factors; the mean concentration of Pb exhibited generally low level,
close to its local background concentration, the Hg concentration in about half of samples was higher than its local background
concentration, and they were poor correlated with the other metals, indicating that the source of Pb and Hg was common controlled
by natural factor and anthropic factor. 相似文献

Geochemical and statistical approach to evaluate background concentrations of Cd,Cu, Pb and Zn (case study: Eastern Poland) 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

An attempt was made to evaluate background concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn by means of geochemical and statistical approach.
As many as 753 samples taken from 51 profiles located in Eastern Poland were analysed. For the estimation of geochemical background
values, direct geochemical methods and a statistical analysis for the whole population of samples were applied. Average values
of heavy metal concentration in loess sediments (bedrock) as well as in profiles not affected by human activity were measured.
The iterative 2σ technique and calculated distribution function were chosen as statistical methods. The resulting values (background
concentrations range) were as follows: Cd 0.5–0.9 mg kg−1, Cu 5–16 mg kg−1, Pb 12–26 mg kg−1 and Zn 31–47 mg kg−1. All the methods applied gave similar results. The highest deviation of the background was noted for Cu and the lowest for
Zn. The lowest values of background were obtained for loess sediments and the highest in the case of the multiple 2σ method. 相似文献

Hyperaccumulation of lead,zinc, and cadmium in plants growing on a lead/zinc outcrop in Yunnan Province,China 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A field survey was conducted to identify potential hyperaccumulators of Pb, Zn or Cd in the Beichang Pb/Zn mine outcrop in
Yunnan Province, China. The average total concentrations of Pb, Zn, and Cd in the soils were up to 28,438, 5,109, and 52 mg kg−1, respectively. A total of 68 plant species belonging to 60 genera of 37 families naturally colonizing the outcrop were recorded.
According to metal accumulation in the plants and translocation factor (TF), Silene viscidula was identified as potential hyperaccumulator of Pb, Zn, and Cd with mean shoot concentrations of 3,938 mg kg−1 of Pb (TF = 1.2), 11,155 mg kg−1 of Zn (TF = 1.8) and 236 mg kg−1 of Cd (TF = 1.1), respectively; S. gracilicanlis (Pb 3,617 mg kg−1, TF = 1.2) and Onosma paniculatum (Pb 1,837 mg kg−1, TF = 1.9) were potential Pb hyperaccumulators. Potentilla griffithii (Zn 8,748 mg kg−1, TF = 1.5) and Gentiana sp. (Zn 19,710 mg kg−1, TF = 2.7) were potential Zn hyperaccumulators. Lysimachia deltoides (Cd 212 mg kg−1, TF = 3.2) was a potential Cd hyperaccumulator. These new plant resources could be used to explore the mechanisms of Pb,
Zn and/or Cd hyperaccumulation, and the findings could be applied for the phytoremediation of Pb, Zn and/or Cd-contaminated
soils. 相似文献

Mercury (Hg) is one of the elements with increasing environmental significance. A total of 22 samples (soils, rocks and gels)
were collected along a 6 km transect around the Valdeazogues River valley in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula (Almadén,
Spain). Samples were characterized by different soil types of depositional sequences associated with mining tailings, type
and system tracts: 15 surface soil samples included in the transect; 3 of a Haploxerept soil profile developed on slates;
2 of quartzite and slates rocks (reference rocks in the area). Moreover, two of a gel substance (in the lower tract of the
river). Soil samples were analyzed for Hg, Cu, Ni, Cr, V, Pb, Cd and As, as well as for organic matter, pH abrasion and calcium
carbonate content. All samples were collected from the Almadén mining district. The level of occurrence of the elements (especially
Hg) and the effect of some properties on its concentration distributions were investigated. The total mercury contents varied
in the range 7,315–3.44 mg kg−1. The mean concentration of total mercury in soils and rocks was 477.03 mg kg−1dry mass. This value is very high compared to the regional background value of other areas. Only rarely is it higher than
1%: in one sample (7,315 mg kg−1) it was almost eight times in comparison with the affected zones, with a high value of 1,000 mg kg−1. Significant differences between samples were found in the total content of mercury. A large percentage of the samples registered
detectable levels of V, Cr, Ni, Pb, As and Cu. Cd readings were below the detectable range for all samples tested. Cr mean
concentration was 216.95 mg kg−1 (minimun concentration 86, maximun 358); V mean concentration was 119.09 mg kg−1 (minimun concentration 69, maximun 1,209); As mean concentration was 51.24 mg kg−1 (minimun 13.3 and maximun 319.4); Ni mean concentration was 45.64 mg kg−1 (minimun concentration 21.2 and maximun 125.6); Cu mean concentration was 33.25 mg kg−1 (minimun concentration 19.3 and maximun 135); Pb mean concentration was 15.19 mg kg−1 (minimun 1.12 and maximun 1013). Metal distribution generally showed spatial variability ascribed to significant anthropogenic
perturbation by mining tailing type. Hg showed vertical profile characterized by surface enrichment, with concentrations in
the upper layer (93.7–82.2 mg kg−1 in front of 3.4 of the rock value) exceeding, in several occasions, the background value. The results obtained denote a potential
toxicity of some heavy metals in some of the studied samples. Water-soluble mercury could enter the aquatic system and accumulate
in sediments. Mercury and other heavy metals contamination depended on the duration and intensity of mining activities. 相似文献

We studied the mobility of silver, heavy metals and europium in waste from the Las Herrerías mine in Almería (SE Spain). The
most abundant primary mineral phases in the mine wastes are hematite, hydrohematite, barite, quartz, muscovite, anorthite,
calcite and phillipsite. The minor phase consisted of primary minerals including ankerite, cinnabar, digenite, magnesite,
stannite, siderite and jamesonite, and secondary minerals such as glauberite, szomolnokite, thenardite and uklonscovite. The
soils show high concentrations of Ag (mean 21.6 mg kg–1), Ba (mean 2.5%), Fe (mean 114,000 mg kg–1), Sb (mean 342.5 mg kg–1), Pb (mean 1,229.8 mg kg–1), Zn (mean 493 mg kg–1), Mn (mean 4,321.1 mg kg–1), Cd (mean 1.2 mg kg–1) and Eu (mean 4.0 mg kg–1). The column experiments showed mobilization of Ag, Al, Ba, Cu, Cd, Eu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Sb, Pb and Zn, and the inverse modelling
showed that the dissolution of hematite, hausmannite, pyrolusite and anglesite can largely account for the mobilization of
Fe, Mn and Pb in the leaching experiment. The mobility of silver may be caused by the presence of kongsbergite and chlorargyrite
in the waste, while the mobility of Eu seems to be determined by Eu(OH)3, which controls the solubility of Eu in the pH–Eh conditions of the experiments. The mineralogy, pH, Eh and geochemical composition
of the mine wastes may explain the possible mobilization of heavy metals and metalloids. However, the absence of contaminants
in the groundwater may be caused by the carbonate-rich environment of “host-rocks” that limits their mobility. 相似文献

Nitrogen and phosphorus mineralization in sediments of Taihu Lake after the removal of light fraction organic matter 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Chunxia Yang Shengrui Wang Xiangcan Jin Fengchang Wu 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2010,59(7):1437-1446
Mineralization of organic matter (OM) in sediment is crucial for biogeochemical cycle of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in
lake ecosystem. Light fraction OM (LFOM) is a reactive pool in sediment and is considered as labile fraction contributing
to N and P cycling. In our study, the effect of LFOM on the process and characteristics of N and P mineralization in sediments
of Taihu Lake were investigated with 77-day waterlogged incubation plus intermittent leaching at 27°C. Sediments from Yuantouzhu
(Y) and Gonghu (G) were used, which were removed the LF. Results indicated that the organic nitrogen mineralized ranged from
14.3 to 19.5% of total nitrogen (193.49–378.93 mg kg−1 sediment) and the organic phosphorus mineralized ranged from 5.7 to 7.9% of total phosphorus (19.86–60.65 mg kg−1 sediment). The heavily polluted sediment had a higher mineralization rate and net mineral-N and mineral-P than slightly polluted
sediment. LF stimulated the initial amounts of inorganic N and P and also can be the potential source for mineralization.
After the LFOM removal, the net mineral-N of Y and G decreased 116.47 mg kg−1 sediment and 48.03 mg kg−1sediment, respectively, and the net mineral-P decreased 2.67 mg kg−1sediment for Y and 4.82 mg kg−1sediment for G. Two models were used to fit the observed mineral-N data vs. incubation days using a non-linear regression
procedure: one is the effective cumulated temperature model, a thermodynamic model which assumes that N mineralization is
affected by temperature; the other is the single first-order exponential model, which is a dynamic model. Based on root mean
square error values for the two models, the effective cumulated temperature model made a better prediction of N mineralization
than the other model for all the four treatments. The single first-order exponential model underestimated N mineralization
during the first 14 days and the last 21 days, and overestimated it in the other days during the 77-day incubation. This indicated
that temperature was the primary factor influencing N mineralization and the amount of mineral-N were correlated significantly
with the effective cumulated temperature (T ≥ 15°C) and incubation time when waterlogged incubation plus intermittent leaching was used. 相似文献

The rare earth elements (REEs) in the sediments of the Xianghai wetlands were measured by inductively coupled plasma spectrometry.
The REEs accumulation rates in two sedimentation cores derived from the riparian and depressional marshes were determined
by 210Pb method. The results showed that REEs concentrations in the Xianghai wetland sediments (∑REEs, 116 mg kg−1) were lower than the corresponding values in Chinese soils (181 mg kg−1) and river sediments (∑REEs, 158–191 mg kg−1). Under alkaline conditions (with pH, 8.2–10.3), the light REEs were more enriched than the heavy REEs. Cerium is the predominant
element, and accounts for 30–33% of the total REEs. REEs in the depressional marsh sediments were relatively high (∑REEs,
127 vs. 104 mg kg−1), especially light REEs contents. A significantly positive correlation was found between the neighboring elements except
Pr and Dy. The different types of vertical distribution of REEs between the riparian and the depressional marsh can partly
result from long-term differing hydrological regimes. Generally, depressional marsh had accumulated much more REEs than riparian
marsh (the mean accumulation rates of ∑REEs, 102.98 vs. 48.89 μg cm−2 year−1). 相似文献

210Pb geochronologies of Cd, Cu, Hg, and Pb fluxes were obtained from the intertidal mudflat sediments of the coastal lagoons
Chiricahueto, Estero de Urías, and Ohuira in the Mexican Pacific. The Cu and Hg sediment concentrations at the three lagoons
fell within the ranges of 6–76 μg g−1 and 0.1 to 592 ng g−1, respectively; Chiricahueto and Estero de Urías sediments had comparable Cd and Pb concentrations within the ranges of 0.2–2.1 μg
g−1 and 10–67 μg g−1, respectively; whereas in Ohuira lagoon, Cd concentrations were lower (0.1–0.5 μg g−1) and Pb concentrations were higher (115–180 μg g−1) than in the other lagoons. The metal fluxes (μg cm−2 y−1) for the three lagoons fell within the ranges of 0.02–0.15 for Cd, 0.7–6.0 for Cu, 0.001–0.045 for Hg, and 0.7–20 for Pb.
The Hg pollution in Estero de Urías was attributed to the exhausts of the thermoelectric plant of Mazatlan and the metal enrichment
in Chiricahueto and Ohuira was related to the agrochemical wastes from the croplands surrounding these lagoons. 相似文献

Copper contamination in soils and vegetables in the vicinity of an abandoned copper mine in China was investigated. The Cu
concentrations of 93 soil samples ranged from 30.4 to 3,191 mg kg−1 soil for a mean of 816.8 mg kg−1 soil. Among 15 samples from a 0 to 20-cm soil layer used for the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) test,
the highest value of Cu-TCLP was 133.8 mg kg−1 soil and the TCLP values were positively correlated with the total Cu content of the soils. The sequential extraction of
soils in the 0–20-, 20–40-, and 40–60-cm soil layers showed that Cu existed mainly in the Fe–Mn oxide fraction, sulfide/organic
fraction, and residual fraction. The copper contamination of 21 species of vegetables from in situ sampling was also examined.
Cu concentrations in the edible portions of Brassica chinensis and Solanum melongena were higher than the FAO/WHO standard (40 mg kg−1 DW). The health risk of copper for local inhabitants from consuming these vegetables was assessed on the basis of the target
hazard quotient. Enriched concentrations of copper were also found in situ in eight cultivars of B. chinensis planted in the fields, with two levels of Cu concentration. The results showed that there is severe copper contamination
in this mine area, and the pollutant in soils show a high risk of leaching into the groundwater and diffusing through the
food chain. 相似文献

Physiological responses and metal accumulation in Vallisneria spiralis L. exposed to copper and cadmium contaminated sediment were examined at different metal concentrations and the influence
of humic acids on copper and cadmium accumulation was also studied. The plants of V. spiralis accumulated high amount of copper and cadmium. The maximum accumulation of 396 and 114 mg kg−1 DW copper were found in the roots and shoots, respectively, at 614 mg kg−1 DW after 21 days’ copper exposure; they were 63.8 and 48.0 mg kg−1 DW for cadmium at 88.69 mg kg−1 DW. The plants showed decrease in chlorophyll content with the increasing concentration of copper/cadmium in sediment. With
addition of humic acids from 3.09 to 7.89 g kg−1 DW, both copper and cadmium accumulation in V. spiralis were significantly inhibited (p < 0.01). The cadmium concentrations of roots and shoots of plant decreased 26.4–50.3 and 14.3–33.0% under cadmium treatments,
respectively; copper accumulation decreased much more with 44.0–77.0 and 35.0–62.7%, respectively. It was concluded that V. spiralis appeared to be an ideal candidate for the phytoremediation of copper and cadmium polluted sediments, and humic acids had
an important role in regulating copper and cadmium bioavailability and toxicity in sediments. 相似文献

Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn were measured in vegetables in Xiguadi village around Lechang Pb/Zn mine in Guangdong province, South China.
The daily intake (DI) of these metals from vegetables by local people was also determined. The respective Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn
concentration was 0.05–0.90 (mean 0.25), 1.04–5.82 (2.64), 0.53–7.07 (2.00) and 3.87–25.20 (11.68) mg kg−1, of which Cd concentration in all vegetables exceeded the safe limit given by FAO/WHO. The DI was found to be 49.76, 475.56,
360.36 and 2,102.63 μg, respectively. The present results indicated local mining activity caused vegetable heavy metal contamination
and Cd concentration exceeding the stipulated standards for all vegetables indicating potentially serious dietary risks for

Immobilization of heavy metals in a contaminated soil in Iran using di-ammonium phosphate,vermicompost and zeolite 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fractionation of heavy metals (HMs) in amended soils is needed to predict elemental mobility in soil and phytoavailability
to plants. A study was conducted to determine the effects of different amendments on HMs availability and their redistribution
among soil fractions. A contaminated soil was selected from around a Zn mine and amended with 0, 2, 4, and 6 g kg−1 of vermicompost (VC), zeolite (ZE), and di-ammonium phosphate (DP) and incubated at field moisture. The amounts of Cd, Pb,
Zn, and Cu were determined from the soil after 6 months of incubation time using DTPA and sequential extraction procedures.
The total concentrations of Cd, Pb, Zn, and Cu were 41, 3,099, 1,997, and 83 mg kg−1 of soil, respectively. All amendments decreased significantly [probability (p) ≤ 0.05] DTPA-extractable Cd, Pb, and Cu, but not Zn, in the soil. For instance, DTPA-extractable Cd, Pb, and Cu decreased
by 40, 290, and 20%, respectively, and that of Zn increased by 18% with DP1 (2 g kg−1 of di-ammonium phosphate) application. The concentrations of Pb and Cd decreased mainly in the specifically sorbed (SS) but
increased in the amorphous Fe oxide (AFeO) fraction with DP application, indicating redistribution of Pb and Cd in the fractions
with less mobility. Lead immobilization by DP was mainly attributed to the P-induced formation of chloropyromorphite, which
was identified in the DP treatment using X-ray diffraction technique. It was concluded that DP was the most effective amendment
in immobilizing Pb and Cd, though it increased Zn mobility. 相似文献

Source and distribution of trace metals and nutrients in Narmada and Tapti river basins,India 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
The study was designed to establish the distributions of trace metals, dissolved organic carbon, and inorganic nutrients as
well as to assess the extent of anthropogenic inputs into the Narmada and Tapti rivers. Water and sediment qualities are variable
in the rivers, and there are major pollution problems at certain locations, mainly associated with urban and industrial centers.
The metal concentrations of samples of the aquatic compartments investigated were close to the maximum permissible concentration
for the survival of aquatic life, except for higher values of Cu (5–763 μg l−1), Pb (24–376 μg l−1), Zn (24–730 μg l−1), and Cr (70–740 μg l−1) and for drinking water except for elevated concentrations of metals such as Pb, Fe (850–2,060 μg l−1), Cr, and Ni (20–120 μg l−1). In general, the concentrations of trace metals in the rivers vary down stream which may affect the “health” of the aquatic
ecosystem and may also affect the health of the rural community that depends on the untreated river water directly for domestic
use. The assessment of EF, I
geo, and PLI in the sediments reveals overall moderate pollution in the river basins. 相似文献

The current study was designed to investigate the extent and severity of contamination as well as the fractionation of potentially toxic elements (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni) in minesoils and agricultural soils around a Pb–Zn mine in central Iran. For this purpose, 20 agricultural soils and eight minesoils were geochemically characterized. Results showed that minesoils contained elevated concentrations of As (12.9–254 mg kg−1), Cd (1.2–55.1 mg kg−1), Pb (137–6239 mg kg−1) and Zn (516–48,889 mg kg−1). The agricultural soils were also polluted by As (5.5–57.1 mg kg−1), Cd (0.2–8.5 mg kg−1), Pb (22–3451 mg kg−1) and Zn (94–9907 mg kg−1). The highest recorded concentrations for these elements were in soils influenced directly by tailing ponds. Chromium, Cu and Ni content in agricultural soils (with average value of 74.1, 34.6 and 50.7 mg kg−1, respectively) were slightly higher than the minesoils (with average value of 54.5, 33.1 and 43.4 mg kg−1, respectively). Sequential extraction data indicated that there were some differences between the speciation of PTEs in soil samples. In the agricultural soils, Zn and Cd were mainly associated with carbonate bound fraction, As and Pb with reducible fraction, Cu with oxidisable fraction and Cr and Ni with residual phase. With respect to mobility factor values, Zn and Cd in the agricultural soils have been found to be the most mobile while As mobility is negligible. Also, the mobility factor of As, Cd and Pb in agricultural soils adjoining tailing ponds was high. In minesoil sample Cd was most abundant in the carbonate form, whereas other studied elements were mainly present in the reducible and residual fractions; therefore, despite the high total concentrations of As, Pb and Zn in the minesoils, the environmental risk of these elements was low. Based on the obtained data, a portion of Cu, Cr and Ni input was from agricultural activities. 相似文献

Spatial variability of heavy metals in soils across a valley plain in Southeastern China 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An investigation was carried out to survey the magnitude and spatial distribution of heavy metals, as well as their relation
with soil series, in a valley plain in Southeastern China. Soil was sampled at 159 sites by combining a squared grid and nested
sampling strategies along the transect perpendicular to the Qujiang River in Zhejiang Province, China. Total concentrations
of six metals, namely Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn, were measured. Classical statistics and geostatistics were used to quantify
their spatial characteristics. There was a considerable variation in many of these parameters. The total concentrations ranged
from 6.8 to 29.3 mg kg−1 for Cu, 6,784 to 18,678 mg kg−1 for Fe, 94 to 385 mg kg−1 for Mn, 6.1 to 20.3 mg kg−1 for Ni, 25.0 to 49.5 mg kg−1 for Pb, and 12 to 160 mg kg−1 for Zn. Pearson correlation coefficients among total metal concentrations and selected soil properties showed a number of
strong associations. By virtue of analysis of variance, a predominant influence of soil series on the spatial variability
of metal concentrations was observed. All metals were spatially correlated. The semivariograms of Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni and Zn were
dominated by short range correlation (600 or 700 m), and that of Pb by long range (1200 m). Block kriging maps of total metal
concentrations and soil properties showed strip distributions, perpendicular to the river, in the manner similar to the soil
series. Principal component analysis was run to identify common distribution patterns of heavy metals and soil properties.
These results illustrate that soil series information of valley plain may be useful for developing management zones for site-specific
agriculture. 相似文献

The Cu–Co–Ni Texeo mine has been the most important source of Cu in NW Spain since Roman times and now, approximately 40,000 m3 of wastes from mine and metallurgical operations, containing average concentrations of 9,263 mg kg−1 Cu, 1,100 mg kg−1 As, 549 mg kg−1 Co, and 840 mg kg−1 Ni, remain on-site. Since the cessation of the activity, the abandoned works, facilities and waste piles have been posing
a threat to the environment, derived from the release of toxic elements. In order to assess the potential environmental pollution
caused by the mining operations, a sequential sampling strategy was undertaken in wastes, soil, surface and groundwater, and
sediments. First, screening field tools were used to identify hotspots, before defining formal sampling strategies; so, in
the areas where anomalies were detected in a first sampling stage, a second detailed sampling campaign was undertaken. Metal
concentrations in the soils are highly above the local background, reaching up to 9,921 mg kg−1 Cu, 1,373 mg kg−1 As, 685 mg kg−1 Co, and 1,040 mg kg−1 Ni, among others. Copper concentrations downstream of the mine works reach values up to 1,869 μg l−1 and 240 mg kg−1 in surface water and stream sediments, respectively. Computer-based risk assessment for the site gives a carcinogenic risk
associated with the presence of As in surface waters and soils, and a health risk for long exposures; so, trigger levels of
these elements are high enough to warrant further investigation. 相似文献
