Article Synopsis
- Gas stations in populated areas emit toxic pollutants, particularly volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and this study focuses on measuring these emissions from different types of gas stations in Mashhad.
- The research found that compressed natural gas (CNG) stations are less polluting than gasoline stations, with xylene isomers being the most common VOCs emitted across all locations.
- Factors such as fuel quality, vapor recovery technology, traffic density, and meteorological conditions influence the concentrations of specific VOCs, with models developed to predict pollutant fluctuations at each station.
Background: Arsenic and heavy metals are the main cause of water pollution and impact human health worldwide. Therefore, this study aims to assess the probable health risk (non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risk) for adults and children that are exposed to arsenic and toxic heavy metals (Pb, Ni, Cr, and Hg) through ingestion and dermal contact with drinking water.
Method: In this study, chemical analysis and testing were conducted on 140 water samples taken from treated drinking water in Mashhad, Iran.
Data on the chemical, physical and biological of effluent from wastewater treatment are provided in table format in the current article. Samples were taken in Peak Flows at effluent Treatment Plants. Sampling and tests were conducted according to the standards methods.
