Seasonal, spatial variation, and pollution sources of heavy metals in the sediment of the Saigon River, Vietnam

TL;DR: The sediment concentration of 11 metals and metalloid varied with season and space and three major pollution sources from river catchment, inside Ho Chi Minh City, and lowland contributively enriched the elements in the sediment of the River.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metal type and aggregate microenvironment govern the response sequence of speciation transformation of different heavy metals to microplastics in soil

TL;DR: The results show that 28% concentration of polyethylene microplastics with size 100 μm reduces and increases the heavy metal content in the bioavailable and organic-bound fractions, respectively, indicating that microplastic promote the transformation from bioavailable to organic- bound species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Speciation of heavy metals in soils and their immobilization at micro-scale interfaces among diverse soil components.

TL;DR: A review of heavy metal pollution in soil-plant systems over the past decade is presented in this paper , with a particular emphasis on the interfacial adsorption and immobilization of HMs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigate the influence of microplastics weathering on their heavy metals uptake in stormwater.

TL;DR: The critical role of plastic type and weathering conditions on heavy metal transport by MPs from the urban environment to the water resources is underscores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Mechanisms of Chromium(III) Immobilization by Organo-Ferrihydrite Co-precipitates: The Significant Roles of Ferrihydrite and Carboxyl

TL;DR: New molecular-level insights are provided into the Cr( III) retention mechanisms on the OFC, particularly for the interactions of Cr(III) and OC constituent of the OfC, which could benefit the management of Cr-contaminated soils with straw returning.

Hazards of heavy metal contamination.

TL;DR: Recent data indicate that adverse health effects of cadmium exposure may occur at lower exposure levels than previously anticipated, primarily in the form of kidney damage but possibly also bone effects and fractures, and measures should be taken to reduce cadmiam exposure in the general population in order to minimize the risk of adverse health results.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review on the adsorption of heavy metals by clay minerals, with special focus on the past decade

TL;DR: A detailed review compiles thorough literature of current research over the last ten years (2006-2016) and highlights the key findings of adsorption studies that use clay minerals as an adsorbent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption of a few heavy metals on natural and modified kaolinite and montmorillonite: a review.

TL;DR: The feasibility of using two important and common clay minerals, kaolinite and montmorillonite, as adsorbents for removal of toxic heavy metals has been reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of soil heavy metal pollution from industrial and agricultural regions in China: Pollution and risk assessment.

TL;DR: This paper provides a comprehensive ecological and health risk assessment on the heavy metals in soils in Chinese industrial and agricultural regions and thus provides insights for the policymakers regarding exposure reduction and management.
