Abstract Groundwater is a vital source of safe drinking water in Bangladesh and most South Asian countries. The study aimed to identify the sources assess contamination Fe, Mn, Pb groundwater. considered published articles, reports, data repositories concerned departments over past two decades using various search engines, including Web Science, Scopus, Science Direct, Google Scholar, etc. results showed concentrations groundwater exceeded 55.93, 75.44, 37.50%, respectively, different standards, World Health Organization United Nations Environmental Protection Agency. ranged from 0.003 16.6, 0.00063 3.11, 0.0006 5.01 mg/L, followed order Fe > Mn Bangladesh. Sources are mostly geogenic origin, while anthropogenic derives industry dust piles, vehicle exhaust discharge, lead pipes, faucets, fixtures, batteries. higher levels heavy metals cause health environmental hazards. recommended that make it unsuitable for purposes should be treated before consumption.

Industrial discharge of heavy metals severely deteriorates surface water quality in many parts the world, particularly lower-middle-income countries like Bangladesh. This study collected published data from 30 different bodies Bangladesh, including rivers, lakes, freshwater wetlands (Haors), and river estuaries, on mean concentrations 12 (Cd, Pb, Cr, Hg, Zn, Cu, Ni, Al, Fe, Mn, As, Co) 2010 to 2022. The aimed explore pollution source levels status correlations between variables were assessed using metal index (HPI), evaluation (HEI), principal component analysis (PCA). results showed that average Bangladesh order Fe>Al>Mn>Cr>Zn>Cu>As>Ni>Pb>Co>Cd>Hg range 3.98 ppm 0.004 ppm. It also Dhaka, Chittagong, Mymensingh divisions, Bogra city Rajshahi division are most polluted areas terms concentration, whereas Khulna Sylhet divisions moderately polluted. about 83.3% have HPI values greater than 100, which is considered unsafe for consumption. However, HEI revealed 46.7% high category (HEI > 20). correlation matrix illustrated strong positive linear relationships Cr Co, Cu Cd, As Cd. suggested contributing sources studied area related anthropogenic activities, such as municipal waste industrial effluent discharge, tanneries, textile dyeing industries, shipbreaking yards, gas production plants, well agricultural runoff.

Abstract Due to water shortages and the potential impact of Ethiopia’s new dam on Nile River, Egypt is seeking resources. This study assesses drinking quality associated risks from potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in Quaternary aquifer (QA) Beni-Suef, Egypt. Using a comprehensive approach, including PHREEQC geochemical modeling, ionic ratios, multivariate statistical analyses, integrated weight index (WQI), evaluated sources ion contamination mixing with QA. Various indices, such as Heavy Metal Pollution Index (HPI), ecological Risk (RI), Hazard Quotient (HQ), (HI), were used assess health risks. Monte Carlo simulations provided probabilistic assessments non-carcinogenic for adults children. GIS tools map risk identifying most deteriorated locations sustainable management. The hydrochemical analysis revealed facies Na–Cl, Ca–Mg–HCO 3 , mixed types, influenced by carbonate dissolution, exchange, silicate weathering. Contamination sources, particularly north south, linked agricultural activities, irrigation return flow, municipal waste, evaporation. WQI indicated that 10.14% samples extremely poor, 21.7% 26% medium, 42% good excellent. PTE varied, HPI values indicating central area 53.6% collected (HPI < 30), but south high > 51). Ecological below threshold 100% (RI confirming safety regarding PTEs. In comparison, hazard (HI) through oral/ingestion, exhibited HI ranging 0.012 2.16, while children showed higher values, 0.045 8.25.

In the Eastern Region of Ghana, 95 % residents have access to boreholes. However, approximately 30 these boreholes are characterized by unpleasurable taste, odour, oily scum and particulate matter. Thus, this study aimed assess water quality, predict sources groundwater contaminants, evaluate human health risk generate spatial distribution maps. achieving this, quality 136 in region was evaluated through Water Quality Index (WQI) Groundwater Pollution (GPI) analyses. Multivariate statistical procedures, namely, principal component correlation analyses were employed define major pollutants their possible sources. Non-carcinogenic infants, children adults nitrates, iron, manganese fluorides ingestion also assessed. The results revealed that is generally slightly acidic with a mean pH 6.30. WQI analysis grouped 68 samples under 'excellent' 'good' types remaining percent categorized 'poor', 'very poor' 'unsafe' drinking types. GPI classified %, 2.21 2.79 as 'insignificant', 'low' 'highly' polluted zones. From multivariate analyses, dominant manganese, chlorides, sodium, fluorides, potassium, turbidity, total suspended dissolved solids, hardness, alkalinity, sulphates, nitrates phosphates. contaminants primarily from rock-water interactions fertilizers. Health assessment for iron 23, 17 15 likely pose non-carcinogenic respectively. maps indicated most vulnerable districts Atiwa East, Fanteakwa North, Achiase, Birim South, Akwapim, Suhum Ayensuano. findings, it imperative appropriate remediation measures implemented protect public health.

Water scarcity is a challenging task for the vast majority of people in world, which has occurred due to changes weather patterns less rainfall than usual. According perceptions, some parts water will be more frequent and intense now. Over 200 published articles reports from period 2003–2023 were considered measurement global impact shortages on livelihoods arid areas. Such type review study designed systematic approach. The manuscript illustrated different dimensions impacts by using electronic search engines, including Google, Scopus, Science Direct, Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGate, Web Science. was then distinguished word with keywords such as landscape, vulnerability, adjustment, displaced person, health effect, risk management inquire about necessary articles. results that shortage during drought increased misery affected people.
