Journal ArticleDOI

Contamination and ecological risk assessment of trace elements in sediments of the rivers of Sundarban mangrove forest, Bangladesh.

TL;DR: Trace element contamination assessment, using different environmental contamination indices, reveals that As, Sb, Th and U are low to moderately contaminated while Cd is moderately to severely contaminated in the sediments of this area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Co-distribution, possible origins, status and potential health risk of trace elements in surface water sources from six major river basins, Bangladesh.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the local population exposed to surface water may pose an adverse health effect, thus, strict regulation and efficient management should be focused on Cr, Cd and As monitoring and appraisal in these basins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elemental distribution of metals in urban river sediments near an industrial effluent source.

TL;DR: Major elements are somehow buffered even though the pollution level is severe while the trace metals seem to be highly responsive, and the sediments of this study respond differently depending upon their geochemical behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simultaneous appraisals of pathway and probable health risk associated with trace metals contamination in groundwater from Barapukuria coal basin, Bangladesh.

TL;DR: The results suggest that Cr in drinking water could cause detrimental effects to exposed local residents; thus, strict health regulation and groundwater management should concentrate on Cr contamination in groundwater from the coal basin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical and physicochemical characterization of effluents from the tanning and textile industries in Bangladesh with multivariate statistical approach

TL;DR: This study showed that effluents from both industries demonstrated high levels of TSS, TDS, EC, and heavy metals, which will be useful for identifying pollutants emanating from the two industries and will guide future industrial aquatic studies where multiple industrial runoffs are concerned.
