The aim of this study was to estimate the total amount of phenolic compounds of olive trees leaves (Olea europaea L.) as Biomarker for the assessment of lead air pollution at Banias area. Olive trees were selected as the predominant species in the study area. The samples were collected from 6 locations at different distances from the vicinity of the Banias refinery (0.1, 0.5, 2, 4, 6, 10) Km. The dominated wind in the region is western - southwesterly during the winter (March) and summer (September), The control was taken from an area about 20 km from the refinery to the north-east (al-Qardahah rural). The concentration of total phenolic compounds (TPC) during the summer was (45.6-70.85) mg GAE/g dw and in the control (40.4) mg GAE/g dw, and during the winter the content of TPC was (35.6-52.9) mg GAE/g dw and in the control (25.8) mg GAE/g dw. The concentration of Lead (Pb) in unwashed leaves during the summer was (0.879 – 2.170) ppm and in the control (0.005) ppm, whilst during the winter was (0.479-1.023) ppm and in the control (0.00083) ppm. The results showed significant differences in the concentration of total phenolic compounds and lead between sites (Anova test). High concentration of total phenols and lead in the summer compared to values in winter at all sites (t-test). The results also showed a negative correlation between the concentration of total phenolic compounds and lead with the distance from the refinery of Banias. Finally, The results showed that the TPC can be used as biomarker of lead air pollution in Banias area.
This study aims to investigate the abilities of two tree species (Pinus brutia and Cupressus sempervirens) planted in Banias Refinery Company to absorb and accumulate lead and zinc basically emitted by the Refinery. Samples of the planted species ( leaves, bark, and wood) and soil from around the plants were collected and analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results did not show significant pollution with these two elements. Moreover, there were not any significant differences between the two species in terms of the accumulation of Pb and Zn. While the Pb concentrations ranged between (24.96-30.84 ppm) for P. brutia and (24.05-30.23 ppm) for C. sempervirens, the Zn concentrations ranged between (34.99-82.99 ppm) for P. brutia, (18.11-59.86 ppm) for C. sempervirens. It was also revealed that P. brutia bark accumulated Pb more than the other parts, whereas C. sempervirens leaves accumulated Zn more than the other parts.
This research aimed to study some chemical characteristics of rainwater in the region located at the East of Baniyas area the coastal region of Syria . Baniyas area contain complex of industrial facilities including oil refinery, electrical power g eneration station and oil transportation. pH values, concentration of trace metals (Pb, Cu, and Cd) and major ions (Ca2+, Mg 2⁺, Na⁺, NH₄⁺, K⁺,SO₄2-, NO3⁻, Cl⁻, F⁻) were determined during the period from October 2012 to May 2013. Samples were collected from 15 sites differ in distances from the emissions sources. Most of samples have normal pH value. The pH values decreased while the concentration of SO₄2-, NO3⁻, and trace metals Pb, Cu, Cd increased significantly by getting closer to emission source up on 2500m. The changes of the chemical characteristics of rainwater were significant.
Debate on the sustainability of human settlements has recently been focused primarily on the urban portion of the land use pattern. However, urban areas rely on suburban, rural, and other less densely settled lands for their existence. In order to quantify the impacts of various land patterns on their supporting resources, these exurban lands must be included in any sustainability assessment. This need for a regional view has resulted in a measurement method that enables comparisons of relative sustainability between various regional land use patterns.
Food safety and monitor of the contents of agricultural products are matters of great importance for consumers, as a result of food awareness, public health and disease prevention. The aim of this study is to know the concentrations of some heavy metals (lead - cadmium - nickel - chromium), in some fodder plants (Trifolium ssp., Cynodon dactylon., Avena sativa L.), and the extent of its secreted in the milk of cows in the area of Banias on the Syrian coast.
