All concentrations were compared to permissible limits for aquatic life. The findings have clarified levels of metals so as the following: Sediments > plants > water. Concentrations of heavy metals in sediment decreased within the sequence Fe > Ni > Cd > Cu > Cr > Zn > Pb (mg/kg), plants as Fe > Zn > Cd > Cr > Ni > Pb > Cu (mg/kg dry weight), in water as Fe > Ni > Zn > Pb > Cr > Cd (mg/L). The concentrations of all metals in water didn’t exceed the permissible limit, thus Fe, Ni, and Pb showed a greater concentration in water samples than other metals. In sediments Fe, Ni, and Cd have exceeded the permissible limits except Cd wasn’t detected (ND) during the winter, whereas, Zn and Pb didn’t exceed the recommended limits. In-plant samples as C. demersum Fe, Cd, Zn, and Cr have exceeded the allowable limits, while Cu and Pb didn’t exceed the permissible limits, also in P. pectinatus Fe, Cd, and Zn have exceeded the permissible limits, whereas, Ni, Cu, Cr, and Pb didn’t exceed the permissible limits altogether seasons during this study. The correlation of Pearson was administered to detect the interrelationship between metal concentrations. A significant positive correlation ( p ≤ 0.05) was found in sediment rather than plants and water samples.","PeriodicalId":17480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water and Environment Technology","volume":"73 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69271010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To ascertain the influence of the sediment composition, clams were subjected to three test sediments with different contents of clay/silt and organic matter from the same site. Sediment with ~33% of clay/silt content and ~10% of ignition loss exhibited decreased oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) within two weeks (p < 0.05). However, sediment with less than ~20% of clay/silt content and/or ~7% of ignition loss had no influence on ORAC (p > 0.05). To ascertain the influence of the water quality, clams were placed in baskets without sediment at four brackish-water sites. Significant differences in ORAC were observed in response to salinity and chlorophyll a (Chl a) (p < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis indicated that the levels of salinity and water temperature as well as variations in Chl a, dissolved oxygen, and turbidity for 1 d prior to the sampling date affected ORAC. We concluded that natural influencing factors need to be considered in ORAC assays for C. japonica, when anthropogenic impacts are assessed.","PeriodicalId":17480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water and Environment Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69269331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their dynamics were investigated by a microcosm experiment. In midsummer, the nitrogen and phosphorus concentration of the column with vegetation (Column A) was kept low and the inorganic nitrogen loading in the first 15 days was about 3 times lower than that of the column without vegetation (Column B). The vegetated column prevented algal blooms in midsummer and was checked to see zooplankton and zoobenthos during the biological active period. The rate of change of masses of carbon and nutrients in the sediment before and after the column experiment were calculated on the basis of the contents of each and sediment thickness (0 to 5 cm). Masses of organic carbon in Column A and Column B in the sediment after 100 days were estimated to decrease by 14 and 23%, respectively. Masses of nitrogen in Column A and Column B in the sediment after 100 days were estimated to decrease by 11 and 26%, respectively. Thus, the mass reduction rate of the vegetated column was 10 to 16% less than that of the column without vegetation.","PeriodicalId":17480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water and Environment Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69266010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Groundwater samples have been analyzed for Fe, Mn, Zn, Ni, Cr, Cu, Cd, Pb, and Co using atomic absorption spectrophotometer to evaluate the heavy metal distribution and contamination level at the southeastern coastal area of Bangladesh. Heavy metals in water samples are in the range of Fe (490–4710 μg/L), Mn (13–1970 μg/L), Zn (70–550 μg/L), Ni (42–255 μg/L), Cr (25–133 μg/L), Cu (34–95 μg/L), Cd (7–26 μg/L), Pb (0–20 μg/L), and Co (43–141 μg/L). The mean concentration of Cr, Cd, Fe, Mn, and Ni exceeded the Bangladesh standards for drinking water. Application of Pearson correlation, principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis (CA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) indicate that groundwater of the study area are influenced by both geogenic and anthropogenic sources of the heavy metals. Heavy metal evaluation index (HEI), degree of contamination (Cd) and heavy metal pollution index (HPI) are employed to evaluate the overall pollution level of groundwater estimating 40, 27 and 60% of samples respectively and exhibit the medium degree of pollution.","PeriodicalId":17480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water and Environment Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69271067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The target PPCPs were proposed as promising sewage markers having different persistency during treatment processes and in the environmental water. The PPCP model consists of hydrodynamic calculations and environmental kinetics by biodegradation and photodegradation. We considered inputs from pumping stations, sewage treatment plants, and urban rivers as CSO sources. We measured the PPCPs concentrations, Escherichia coli , and salinity in the collected surface water samples from several locations around Tokyo coastal area for consecutive days after rainfall events in October 2017 (113 mm), June 2018 (81 mm), and July 2018 (67 mm). We found high correspondence between simulation and monitoring results on E. coli and three PPCPs in the coastal locations for all events, suggesting that the model has the potential to quantitatively evaluate CSO-derived con taminants in the Odaiba Seaside Park and nearby locations. Simulation showed that acetaminophen concentration rapidly declined due to its susceptibility to sunlight and biodegradation. Caffeine and E. coli showed different attenuation rates, whereas crotamiton concentration did not change because of its comparable concentration level in CSO. limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity, and recovery.","PeriodicalId":17480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water and Environment Technology","volume":"127 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69269394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aquatic plants and rhizosphere microorganisms can largely affect the environmental fate of bisphenols. In this study, the association between common reed, which is distributed widely in the aquatic environment, and microorganisms existing in the surrounding area of its roots was studied to illustrate its capabilities and possible mechanisms for the removal of five different bisphenols (BPA, bisphenol F, bisphenol P, bisphenol S, and 4,4ʹ-thiodiphenol). Different experimental systems were prepared in the presence and absence of sterile common reeds and aquatic microorganisms. The effects of common reed and microorganisms on the removal of bisphenols differed across compounds. However, the removal of all the bisphenols tested was clearly accelerated in the co-presence of common reed and microorganisms, which indicated the importance of aquatic plant-microorganism association in enhancing bisphenol removal. The results of this study further revealed the major contribution of the distinct mechanism of removal of each bisphenol by the association between common reed and microorganisms.","PeriodicalId":17480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Water and Environment Technology","volume":"19 1","pages":"13-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69267195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
