Soil contamination by lead, zinc, iron, manganese, and copper is a widespread environmental issue associated with the mining industry. Primary sources include activities, production processing operations, waste disposal management practices, atmospheric sediments. degradation, water pollution impacting aquatic ecosystems, plant absorption leading to agricultural product contamination, health risks exposure copper, along effects on fauna biodiversity, constitute primary impacts of contamination. In this study, diverse sampling analysis methods, geographic information systems, remote sensing techniques are investigated for monitoring assessing soil these metals. modification techniques, phytoremediation, other strategies reduction considered among most crucial, alongside protection risk strategies. Finally, article explores innovative methods solutions mineral remediation, application green chemistry sustainable practices in industry, utilization artificial intelligence controlling heavy metal ion pollution.

Heavy metal(loid)s (HMs) play an important role in economic development since they are used various branches of industry. However, all industrial activities emit HMs into the environment, where no longer useful but potentially toxic. It has been observed that enter soil and sediment, potential human health risk may arise due to their excessive accumulation. Having mind importance assessing these media, we analyzed published works last decade created a summary exposure factors models for sediment. This analysis revealed remarkable increase number publications about assessment HMs, especially few years. Since many differences values distributions were noted, this study focused on elucidating differences. Non-carcinogenic carcinogenic evaluated through deterministic approach is prevalent use, probabilistic one, which gaining more attention research. In end, guided by studied literature, propose factors.

Heavy-metal contaminants are one of the most relevant problems contemporary agriculture. High toxicity and ability to accumulate in soils crops pose a serious threat food security. To solve this problem, it is necessary accelerate pace restoration disturbed agricultural lands. Bioremediation an effective treatment for soil pollution. It relies on microorganisms remove pollutants. The purpose study create consortium based isolated from technogenic sites further development field In study, promising strains that can heavy metals experimental media were selected: Pantoea sp., Achromobacter denitrificans, Klebsiella oxytoca, Rhizobium radiobacter, Pseudomonas fluorescens. On their basis, consortiums compiled, which investigated nutrient media, as well produce phytohormones. was Consortium D, included radiobacter ratio 1:1:2, respectively. indole-3-acetic acid indole-3-butyric 18.03 μg/L 2.02 μg/L, respectively; absorption capacity Cd (56.39 mg/L), Hg (58.03 As (61.17 Pb (91.13 Ni (98.22 mg/L). D has also been found be conditions mixed heavy-metal contamination. Due fact use will focused land cleanup, its intensify process phytoremediation studied. combined Trifolium pratense L. developed ensured removal about 32% Pb, 15% As, 13% Hg, 31% Ni, 25% soil. Further research aimed at developing biological product improve efficiency remediation lands withdrawn use.

Contamination of borehole water by leachates from dumpsites has significantly affected the health those who use polluted for domestic activities. This study evaluated seasonal variations risks associated with potentially toxic elements in underground sources near a dumpsite Awka, Nigeria. The levels (PTEs) were compared World Health Organization (WHO) and Nigerian Standard Drinking Water Quality (NSDWQ) standard limits. The, PTEs, metal pollution index, quality ecological risk, health-related using evaluated. chemical results indicated that Cd Pb above WHO NSDWQ threshold limits potable water. Mn Ni values samples had PTE higher than control due to their proximity landfill. index ranged 1290.29–2243.04, showing is unsuitable drinking other uses. indices 1, indicating needs treatment before use. risk examination highlighted children are more disposed non-cancer adults based on hazard obtained. Also, probability cancer was high, both likely be danger risks. However, 11.187 51.581, low risk. Pearson's correlation principal component analysis revealed similar origins/sources linked anthropogenic Awareness programs necessary educate populace about dangers contaminated Effective waste management strategies techniques should implemented.
