The effect of the presence of zinc on the precipitation of CaCO3 from supersaturated solutions
(Corresponding) Koutsoukos P., NATSI P., MOUSTAKI E.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
Precipitation and dissolution processes of calcium carbonate in natural aquatic systems, are responsible not only for the regulation of pH but also for the transport of pollutants to and from sediments. Of interest in these processes, is the role of the presence of heavy metals in the aquatic...Read more
Acid generation and heavy metal leachability from waste lignite disposal sites, Oropos basin, North Attica. An assessment on preliminary data
Kampouroglou E., Kollias K., (Corresponding) Stouraiti C., Papassiopi N.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
Lignite mining in the Oropos Neogene basin (North Attica), especially in the areas of Milesi and Markopoulo, operated since last century and ceased in the late 1960’s. Piles of complex waste material consisting of lignite tailings and waste rocks are dispersed in the area between the above...Read more
Zinc and Nickel Accumulation in Unicellular Photosynthetic Algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Grown in Metal-contaminated Media
Zkeri E., Mavrakis E., Pergantis S., (Corresponding) Lydakis-Simantiris N.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
In this study, Zn and Ni accumulation in unicellular freshwater migroalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was investigated. C. reinhardtii cells were grown in media polluted with several concentrations of either Zn or Ni. Tolerance of this organism to Zn and Ni pollution was examined and the growth...Read more
