Abstract
The pollution and contamination by arsenic (As) in the water resources is a worldwide concern due to its adverse toxic effects on the environment and public health. The current study aimed to investigate arsenic levels in the groundwater system with the possible health risk, and sustainable mitigation strategies. The data on arsenic in the water system were collected from the Web of Science and Scopus databases. The published data showed that arsenic concentration (0.0002–19.0 mg/kg) in the water system in Bangladesh was higher than the permissible standards and data from other countries, indicating severe contamination of water resources by arsenic. The study concluded that the water resource in Bangladesh is not safe for human consumption. The review has also identified the research gaps in various strategies for controlling the arsenic problem and their impact on the ecosystems. The present study suggested future research directions on sustainable intervention, impacts assessment of arsenic on humans, and formulating existence policy that helps to combat arsenic contamination.
由于砷(As)对环境和公众健康造成的不良毒性影响,水资源中的砷污染已成为全球关注的问题。本研究旨在调查地下水系统中的砷含量及其可能带来的健康风险,以及可持续的缓解策略。水系统中的砷数据来自 Web of Science 和 Scopus 数据库。公布的数据显示,孟加拉国水系统中的砷浓度(0.0002-19.0 毫克/千克)高于允许标准和其他国家的数据,表明水资源受到砷的严重污染。研究得出结论,孟加拉国的水资源对人类消费不安全。审查还确定了在控制砷问题的各种战略及其对生态系统的影响方面存在的研究空白。本研究就可持续干预、砷对人体的影响评估以及制定有助于应对砷污染的生存政策提出了未来的研究方向。
期刊介绍:
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
