Raman spectroscopy assisted with XRF and chemical simulation to assess the synergic impacts of guardrails and traffic pollutants on urban soils
(Wiley, 2012-11-01)
Urban soils are potential reservoirs of toxic metals as a consequence of traffic emissions. Sources like brake linings, tyres, road pavement, exhaust fumes, guardrail, traffic signals and other galvanised steel structures ...
Evidence of mercury sequestration by carbon nanotubes and nanominerals present in agricultural soils from a coal fired power plant exhaust
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
Mercury (Hg) in agricultural soils could have negative effects on the environment and the human health. The exposure to high level of Hg through different absorption pathways, such as ingestion and diet through soil-plant ...
