This study investigated soil pollution and ecological risks in Iran's Meighan wetland, focusing on the impact of nearby sodium sulfate mining. The enrichment factor, geo-accumulation index, and potential ecological risk index of elements were evaluated using both deterministic and probabilistic approaches. The findings revealed some potentially toxic elements levels in ore waste exceeded those in raw materials, and the wetland acted as a receptor for toxic elements. Additionally, rare earth elements such as yttrium, ytterbium, cerium, scandium, and lanthanum were detected in wetland samples. Analysis revealed that cobalt (in some waste ore samples), selenium (downstream), and vanadium (in some wetland samples) exceeded permissible limits. Deterministic risk assessments showed extremely high pollution indices for vanadium (enrichment factor = 85.77, Geo-accumulation Index, Igeo= 11.37) and titanium (EF= 5.39), indicating significant anthropogenic impacts. Monte Carlo simulations suggested that the Igeo values revealed a significant rise in contamination levels, with arsenic (52.83 %) and barium (31.59 %) indicating moderately to heavy polluted. Meanwhile, vanadium (97.21 %), aluminum (96.91 %), lead (84.69 %), chromium (25.33 %), nickel (25.17 %), cobalt (23.32 %), and manganese (13.36 %) were classified as extremely polluted. The aluminum, lead, and titanium exhibited very high enrichment, with levels at 0.3 %, 0.4 %, and 0.2 %, respectively. The potential ecological risk index classified 63.53 % of samples as 'Very High' risk, with nickel and chromium being the most significant contributors. Hence, this mine posed a substantial ecological risk to Meighan Wetland, requiring rehabilitation efforts to address anthropogenic and geogenic factors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11725,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Technology & Innovation","volume":"38 ","pages":"Article 104131"},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143631909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the effectiveness of compost tea is closely related to the parameters of its preparation technology. Animal-based compost tea generally demonstrates better disease suppression compared to plant-based compost tea. The compost-to-water ratio for preparing compost tea typically ranges from 1:1–1:50. Aerobic compost tea extraction usually takes 1–3 days, while non-aerobic compost tea requires about 7–14 days. Currently, compost tea application is limited, lacking standardized production processes and specialized functional fertilizers. The suitable crop varieties, application amounts, application methods, and efficacy for growth promotion and disease suppression of compost tea from different feedstocks are still unclear.

To overcome this limitation, this study analyze the hydrogeochemistry characteristics of geothermal waters, reveal its control mechanisms, assess suitability zoning and associated health risks through high-density sampling in the Lower Yellow River Basin (LYRB), Shandong Province. The results show that the physical and hydrogeochemistry characteristics of geothermal waters exhibit large spatial variation at different temperatures, and 93.7 % of samples meet the standard for physiotherapeutic use of geothermal waters in China.

The main recharge source of geothermal waters is atmospheric precipitation, and the hydrogeochemical characteristics are mainly controlled by the dissolution of salt rocks, silicates, sulfate minerals and cation exchange.

Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) revealed preferential adsorption of HS molecules with higher log K_ow values onto MPs compared to those with lower values.
