The impact of sediment, fresh and marine water on the concentration of chemical elements in water of the ice-covered lagoon
PublicationThe common use of chemical elements by man has been contributing to their extraction for centuries. As a consequence, they have been directly or indirectly introduced into the biogeochemical cycle. In the framework of many conventions, mining and processing of elements are currently subject to many restrictions. However, their large load that has already been deposited in the soil and bottom sediments can be remobilised and...

Zagrożenie środowiska ze strony człowieka
PublicationOpisano główne zagrożenia ze strony człowieka dla środowiska naturalnego. Podkreslono znaczenie czystego powietrza i czystej wody dla pawidłowego funkcjonowania ekosystemów, w tym człowieka. Omówiono zanieczyszczenie powietrza ''kwaśnymi gazami'' oraz pyłami, emisję do środowiska metali ciężkich, freonów, i związane z tym problemy powstawania dziury ozonowej oraz efektu cieplarnianego. Omówiono również zanieczyszczenie wód lotnymi...

Stosowanie zasad "zielonej chemii" w metodykach oznaczania pozostałości pestycydów w próbkach wody
PublicationNieustanny wzrost zużycia pestycydów powoduje, że w większych ilościach przedostają się do środowiska wodnego. Stanowi to źródło narażenia zdrowia i życia nie tylko ludzkiego, lecz wszystkich organizmów żywych. Do analizy próbek wody na zawartość pestycydów najczęściej wykorzystuje się duże ilości rozpuszczalników organicznych, które stanowią dodatkowe zagrożenie dla środowiska, dlatego też wzrasta zainteresowanie technikami, które...

Sources of contamination in sediments of retention tanks and the influence of precipitation type on the size of pollution load
PublicationDensification of cities and urban population contributes to increased runoff and suspended solids and alteration of the urban water cycle. Nowadays, Blue-Green Infrastructure is promoted to increase a city’s resilience to floods; however, stormwater drainage systems, supported with retention tanks are still important in protecting urban areas against floods. Sediment accumulation in stormwater infrastructure relates to an issue...

Fast, sensitive and reliable multi-residue method for routine determination of 34 pesticides from various chemical groups in water samples by using dispersive liquid – liquid microextraction coupled with gas chromatography – mass spectrometry
PublicationA simple and efficient dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction technique (DLLME) was developed by using a mixture of two solvents: 40 μL of tetrachlorethylene (extraction solvent) and 1.0 mL of methanol (disperser solvent), which was rapidly injected with a syringe into 10mL ofwater sample. Some important parameters affecting the extraction efficiency, such as type and volume of solvents, water sample volume, extraction time,...

A New Approach for Investigating the Impact of Pesticides and Nutrient Flux from Agricultural Holdings and Land-Use Structures on Baltic Sea Coastal Waters
PublicationKnowledge related to land-use management impacts on the Baltic Sea ecosystem is limited. The constant release of pollutants into water bodies has resulted in water quality degradation. Therefore, only the innovative approaches integrated with research will provide accurate solutions and methods for proper environment management and will enable understanding and prediction of the impacts of land-use in the Baltic Sea region. Modelling...
