Arsenic in the geo-environment: A review of sources, geochemical processes, toxicity and removal technologies

N. Janardhana Raju

Summary: Arsenic contamination in groundwater is a global concern for human health through drinking and irrigation practices. The review in this paper covers sources, processes, health effects, and treatment technologies for arsenic removal. The most serious known arsenic contamination problem with the largest population at risk is found in Bangladesh and West Bengal state in India.

Species-specific bioaccumulation and health risk assessment of heavy metal in seaweeds in tropic coasts of South China Sea

Ziting Peng et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the bioaccumulation of 13 heavy metals in 11 different seaweed species. The results showed that different seaweed species had varying capacities for heavy metal bioaccumulation. The study also revealed that the consumption of certain seaweed species may pose a moderate to high health risk for children. Additionally, the study identified As and Cr as the limiting factors for seaweed consumption.

Assessment of arsenic and its associated health risks due to mining activities in parts of North-central Nigeria: Probabilistic approach using Monte Carlo

Muyiwa Michael Orosun

Summary: The study found significant arsenic pollution due to mining activities in parts of North-central Nigeria, with very low bioaccumulation factors and ingestion pathway being the dominant exposure pathway. The non-cancerous risk of arsenic in drinking water is high, confirmed by the Hazard Index (HI) values. The Incremental Lifetime Cancer Risk is classified as level II to level III for soil and grain samples, and level VI to level VII for water samples, indicating high cancer risks.
