- Comparative Study of the Presence of Heavy Metals in Edible . . . - MDPI
Currently, the processes of obtaining and producing food as well as consumption habits give rise to new challenges for food safety The presence of heavy metals in edible vegetable oils has harmful effects for humans In this study, the scientific literature which reports the presence of heavy metals in different types of vegetable oils was analysed More than 25 heavy metals are evaluated in
- Ductile–Brittle Transition Mechanism and Dilute Solution Softening . . .
Body-centered cubic (BCC) metals, extensively utilized in low-alloy high-strength steels and heat-resistant alloys, exhibit a pronounced ductile–brittle transition (DBT) at cryogenic temperatures, marked by a well-defined yet narrow ductile–brittle transition temperature (DBTT) window
- Clay-Based Materials for Heavy Metals Adsorption: Mechanisms . . .
Given the severe threats posed by heavy metal pollution to ecological environments and human health, developing effective remediation technologies is of paramount importance This review delves into the mechanisms, recent advancements, and future prospects of clay mineral-based materials in the adsorption of heavy metals Clay minerals such as kaolinite, montmorillonite, and bentonite have
- Combustion of Metals in Oxygen-Enriched Atmospheres | MDPI
Metal combustion is one of the main issues threatening service safety in oxygen-enriched atmospheres, leading to unexpected explosions in rocket engines
- Accumulation Potential of Lead and Cadmium Metals in Maize
Phytoremediation stands at the forefront of modern environmental science, offering an innovative and cost-effective solution for the remediation of heavy-metal-contaminated soils through the natural capabilities of plants This study aims to investigate the effects of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) metals on plant growth (e g , seedling height, stem diameter, fresh and dry weight), physiological
- Bioaccumulation and Trophic Transfer of Heavy Metals in Marine Fish . . .
Heavy metal contamination in marine ecosystems poses a critical environmental challenge, with significant implications for biodiversity, trophic dynamics, and human health Marine fish are key bioindicators of heavy metal pollution because of their role in food webs and their capacity for bioaccumulation and trophic transfer This review synthesizes current knowledge on the pathways and
- Heavy Metals in Particulate Matter—Trends and Impacts on . . . - MDPI
Heavy metals represent a class of pollutants detected at concentrations lower than 10 ppm in different matrices that are intensively monitored due to having a major impact on human health Industrial activities including mining, agriculture, and transport, determine their presence in different environments Corrosion phenomena of various installations, volcanic eruptions, or atmospheric
