1. Evaluation of sediment contamination by urban sewage in a stretch of Capibaribe River, Pernambuco, Brazil
Anthropic activities are responsible for the increase in environmental contamination, especially in aquatic systems, demanding studies to assess and monitor contamination levels in different water bodies. We have done a chemical characterization of eleven sediments in order to evaluate the level of contamination by domestic sewage from the Capibaribe River,

2. PHYTOREMEDIATION OF FLUORIDE-CONTAMINATED WATER BY Landoltia punctata
ABSTRACT Fluorine is released into the water environment naturally or by anthropogenic activities. Fluorine promotes health benefits at low concentrations, but it promotes adverse effects ranging from fluorosis to carcinogenic problems at high concentrations. Although fluorine removal from environment can occur through processes such as adsorption, reverse o

3. Mitigating the impact of organochlorine and pyrethroid residues in fresh and chemically washed spinach
Abstract Spinach is highly contaminated with different pesticide residues. This study was designed to evaluate organochlorine and pyrethroid pesticide residues present in various washing treatments (T0-T13) of fresh and chemically washed spinach with respect to maximum residues limits. Efficiency of washing solutions (citric acid, acetic acid, garlic extract

4. Spatial Distribution and Pollution Assessment of Trace Elements Pb, Cu, Ni, Fe and As in the Surficial Water of Staring Bay, Indonesia
Staring Bay has long been used by the local community for fisheries and fishing activities; however, the rapid population growth and industrial activities around the bay in recent years are predicted to contribute significantly to the increase of waste entering the bay. This particular study was aimed to provide baseline levels of trace elements Pb, Cu, Ni,

5. REMEDIACIÓN ELECTROCINÉTICA DE UN SUELO REAL CONTAMINADO CON PLOMO ASISTIDA CON LA ADICIÓN DE UN AGENTE COMPLEJANTE
The use of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (Na2EDTA) as a chelating agent presents ideal characteristics to be used for the removal of lead from a contaminated site. Batch experiments together with a simple local equilibrium model were carried out to evaluate the role of EDTA as enhancing agent in electrokinetic remediation of a Pb-contaminated

6. Evaluation and Geostatistical Study of Toxicological Risk by Water Ingestion with Al, Ba, Fe and Pb in Communities Close to Industrial Areas in the Brazilian Amazon
This study provides a risk assessment and risk maps related to the consumption of water contaminated by Al, Ba, Fe and Pb in an industrial area in the Brazilian Amazon. A total of 120 samples of drinking water were collected from 26 locations in the municipality of Barcarena, Pará State. Multiple elements were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma optical

7. APLICAÇÃO DE NANOPARTÍCULAS DE FERRO ZERO-VALENTE (nFeZ) NA REMEDIAÇÃO DE SOLOS E ÁGUAS SUBTERRÂNEAS CONTAMINADAS: UMA REVISÃO
The remediation of contaminated soil and water is a relevant topic, being the focus of intense research. The use of nanoparticles to degrade contaminants has been consolidated as a sustainable remediation technology, with promising results worldwide. In this scenario, the zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) which, due to their properties, prove to be an im

8. CHEMICAL REGENERATION OF BONE CHAR ASSOCIATED WITH A CONTINUOUS SYSTEM FOR DEFLUORIDATION OF WATER
Abstract Sources of fluoride contaminated water are found around the world and their treatment is required before human consumption. This paper contributes to advances in the use of bone-char as an adsorbent for fluoride, associating steps of chemical regeneration and fluoride adsorption in continuous systems, thereby making feasible the multiple use of the

9. Do climate changes alter the distribution and transmission of malaria? Evidence assessment and recommendations for future studies
Abstract Malaria, a mosquito-borne infectious disease, is considered a significant global health burden. Climate changes or different weather conditions may impact infectious diseases, specifically those transmitted by insect vectors and contaminated water. Based on the current predictions for climate change associated with the increase in carbon dioxide con
