Journal ArticleDOI

Co-occurrence of arsenic and fluoride in groundwater of semi-arid regions in Latin America: genesis, mobility and remediation.

María Teresa Alarcón-Herrera, +8 more
- 15 Nov 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is still urgent to develop technologies and methods capable of monitoring and removing both of these contaminants simultaneously from drinking water, with a particular focus towards small-scale rural operations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Occurrence and treatment of arsenic in groundwater and soil in northern Mexico and southwestern USA.

Lucy Mar Camacho, +4 more
- 01 Apr 2011 - 
TL;DR: Independent of socio-demographic variables, nutritional status, and levels of blood lead, cognitive development in children is being affected when exposed to As, and emergent technologies, such as phytoremediation, offer a viable solution to As contamination in drinking water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Co-occurrence, possible origin, and health-risk assessment of arsenic and fluoride in drinking water sources in Mexico: Geographical data visualization

María Teresa Alarcón-Herrera, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: The results show that 8.81 million people are exposed to arsenic above the limit of 10 μg/L, and an additional 13,070 lifetime cases of cancer are expected from this arsenic exposure alone, which is concentrated in the arid states of north-central Mexico.
Journal ArticleDOI

An overview of nitrate sources and operating processes in arid and semiarid aquifer systems.

Mélida Gutiérrez, +3 more
- 15 May 2018 - 
TL;DR: A variety of mathematical models have been successful in identifying best practices that minimize N leakage without negatively affecting crop yield and field research in crop management has yielded promising results in determining the adequate dosage and time of application of fertilizers to reduce N losses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simultaneous removal of fluoride and arsenic from well water by electrocoagulation.

Miriam López-Guzmán, +4 more
- 15 Aug 2019 - 
TL;DR: The electrocoagulation process for the simultaneous removal of fluoride and arsenic was evaluated in well from the state of Durango, Mexico, in order to both solve the local problem and determine how to apply the method generally.
