Nitrate represents the most widespread contaminant in shallow aquifers, especially in urban areas, and poses risks to human health, when the contaminated groundwater is ingested. In urban environments, the release of nitrate ...

As groundwater consumption increases, its quality and consequently its potability are proportionally affected. Nitrates stand out among the agents that contribute to the loss of groundwater potability, as they are the most ...

The impact of urbanization on groundwater quality is of special concern for water managers dealing with the provision of drinking water to large urban centers. Nitrate is one of the most common contaminants found in urban ...

Two-dimensional nanoporous carbon-based membrane has proved to be a promising reverse osmosis (RO) membrane for contaminated ions separation from water. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations are conducted to assess ...

The municipality of Monte Azul Paulista is supplied exclusively by groundwater, mainly from the Adamantina Aquifer, captured by more than one hundred wells. In recent years high nitrate concentrations have prohibited the ...

Groundwater contamination was studied in a rural setting of the Upper Pantanoso Stream Basin (UPSB) in the southeast of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, where potential contaminant sources include inorganic fertilizer. ...
