The problem of hazardous chemicals in geothermal fluid is a critical environmental concern energy developments. Boron among the contaminants reported to be present at high concentrations fluids various countries. Poor management and inadequate treatment can release excessive boron environment that has toxic effects on plants, humans, animals. Despite importance fluid, limited fragmented resources exist provide comprehensive understanding its sources, transport fate, strategies context. This paper presents first review from systematic different aspects including generation, toxicity, ranges approaches technologies. Our research highlights origin water mainly historical water-rock interactions magmatic intrusion. Excessive have been (over 500 mg/L some case studies). indicated possible contamination sites are mostly due flawed construction production/re-injection wells uncontrolled discharge surface water. dominancy non-ionic H3BO3 species makes selection suitable method for waters limited. Combining selective resins membrane technologies, hybrid systems provided effluents irrigation. However, their consumption course structure encourage further develop cost-effective environmentally friendly alternatives.

Boron (B) is released to terrestrial and aquatic environments through both natural anthropogenic sources. This review describes the current knowledge on B contamination in soil relation its geogenic sources, biogeochemistry, environmental human health impacts, remediation approaches, regulatory practices. The common naturally occurring sources of include borosilicate minerals, volcanic eruptions, geothermal groundwater streams, marine water. extensively used manufacture fiberglass, thermal-resistant glass porcelain, cleaning detergents, vitreous enamels, weedicides, fertilizers, B-based steel for nuclear shields. Anthropogenic into environment wastewater irrigation, fertilizer application, waste from mining processing industries. an essential element plant nutrition taken up mainly as boric acid molecules. Although deficiency agricultural soils has been observed, toxicity can inhibit growth under arid semiarid regions. High intake by humans be detrimental stomach, liver, kidneys brain, eventually results death. Amelioration water enriched with achieved immobilization, leaching, adsorption, phytoremediation, reverse osmosis, nanofiltration. development cost-effective technologies removal B-rich irrigation including electrodialysis electrocoagulation techniques likely help control predominant input soil. Future research initiatives sustainable using advanced are also recommended.
