BIOREMEDIATION: A SUPERIOR ALTERNATIVE FOR REMEDIATING TANNERY EFFLUENT-CONTAMINATED SOIL

FUDMA Journal of Sciences, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 9(2), P. 193 - 208

Published: Feb. 28, 2025

Tannery effluent poses significant risks to soil health, primarily through contamination with heavy metals like chromium, sulphides, and persistent organic pollutants (POPs). These toxic substances inhibit microbial activity, reducing nutrient cycling matter decomposition essential for fertility. Beneficial microorganisms, including nitrogen-fixing bacteria, are particularly affected, leading altered communities dominated by less advantageous, metal-tolerant species. Accumulation of POPs disrupts enzymatic activities, interferes plant root growth, complicates remediation efforts due pollutant migration groundwater potential entry into the food chain. Prolonged exposure such contaminants diminishes fertility, reduces resilience, ecosystem services, posing threats agricultural productivity environmental health. This review was aimed outline what made bioremediation a superior treatment technology among other methods used in remediating tannery contaminated soil. Efforts mitigate impacts involve combination physical, chemical, biological technologies. Physical washing, flushing, thermal desorption focus on removing or isolating contaminants, while chemical approaches as oxidation, reduction, stabilization transform harmful forms immobilize them. Biological leverages microorganisms plants detoxify sustainably. Bioremediation strategies aid bioaugmentation biostimulation do enhance activity address inorganic effectively more than physical methods. Another excellent called phytoremediation can also effectively, Achieving better technique should be coupled stringent industrial regulations, sustainable tanning methods, stakeholder awareness

Radioactive elements in wastewater and potable water: Sources, effects, and methods of analysis and removal

Water Environment Research, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 96(8)

Published: Aug. 1, 2024

Radioactive effluents, originating from nuclear power plants, medical-nuclear applications, and various extraction industries worldwide, present a significant dangerous contamination challenge. The concentrations of radioactive substances in wastewater, surface water, potable water vary widely depending on the source location. For example, cesium-137 levels wastewater facilities can range 0.1 to 10 Bq/L, while tritium near plants reach up 100 Bq/L. Regulatory guidelines, like maximum contaminant level 0.185 Bq/L for combined radium-226 radium-228 drinking are critical ensuring safety environmental protection. Specifically, Fukushima, Japan, due accident. In contrast, regions with natural uranium deposits, parts United States, have reported 1 These variations highlight necessity focused monitoring evaluation protect quality community health. Among methods, Gamma spectrometry inductively coupled plasma mass precise radionuclide quantification, scintillation detectors, ion exchange, adsorption techniques efficiently remove water. This review examines sources, adverse effects, analysis remediation strategies elements wastewater. By thoroughly evaluating origins potential dangers associated this report emphasizes urgent need rigorous effective treatment practices maintain integrity resources ecosystems.
