This study assessed the spatial variations of water quality and trophic state of the ex-mining lakes converted into man-made wetlands in Paya Indah Wetlands, Selangor, Malaysia. The variations of the parameters were referred to the National Water Quality Standard (NWQS) to determine the water qua...
In many parts of the world, landfills are the primary method for disposal of municipal solid waste. Waste generation in cities of developing countries is increasing as a result of rapid urbanization, lifestyle changes, and demographic growth. Environmental pollution is getting worse due to the lack...
The heavy metal accumulation at Cai Dau landfill was in the decreasing order of Ni > Cr > As, but that was not found at An Cu landfill. The pollution load index (PLI) indicated medium and low risks of heavy metal contamination at the Cai Dau and An Cu landfills, respectively, thus ...
This study was conducted in order to deter- mine the extent of groundwater and soil pollution within and around the landfill of Seri Petaling located in the State of Selangor, Malaysia. The condition of nearby surface water Was also determined. An electrical resistivity imaging survey Was used ...
