Surface water samples from Godavari river basin was analyzed quantitatively for the concentration of eight heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, nickel and zinc using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The analyzed data revealed that iron and zinc metals were found to be the most abundant metals in the river Godavari and its tributaries. Iron (Fe) recorded the highest,...
The concentrations of As, Cd, Ni, Cr, Zn, Cu, Hg and Pb in the sediment of Xiyi River were analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). The results showed the average concentration of total As, Cd, Ni, Cr, Zn, Cu, Hg and Pb in the sediment was higher than the national threshold limit. The values of pollution index and integrated pollution index showed that the pollution level was Cd>;...
The contents and characteristics of ten heavy metals in surface sediments from Yangzonghai Lake in Yunnan, China were analyzed. Ecological risk index presented by Håkanson to assess the potential ecological risk of Yangzonghai Lake was utilized. The results showed that the average concentrations of titanium(Ti), manganese(Mn), zinc(Zn), vanadium(V), chromium(Cr), copper(Cu), nickel(Ni), cobalt(Co),...
Rotterdam is in contact with approximately 20 major dischargers responsible for polluting the Meuse, which is a source of drinking water for Rotterdam. These negotiations must lead to a reduction in the level of pollution in the Meuse. The measured discharges and the calculated percentage reductions are presented. In 1994, the emphasis will be on pollution by pesticides.
