“…There are substantial limitations to the assumption that Pb in soil originates from just two The current challenge to source apportionment is perhaps to combine Pb isotopic ratio data, including consideration of 204 Pb, with other markers of industrial and road traffic sources, such as Sb and Cu from brake liners (Fujiwara et al, 2011;Huang, 1994;Weckwerth, 2001) …”

Environmental context There is growing concern that lead in the environment may cause adverse health effects in human populations. We investigated the combined use of isotopic abundance and isotopic dilution to show how the origins of soil Pb and soil characteristics affect lability. Soil pH and soil Pb content are the dominant controls on Pb lability; the lability of recent petrol-derived Pb is similar to that of other sources in urban soils but greater than geogenic Pb in rural roadside topsoils. Abstract Lability of lead in soils is influenced by both soil properties and source(s) of contamination. We investigated factors controlling Pb lability in soils from (i) land adjacent to a major rural road, (ii) a sewage processing farm and (iii) an archive of the geochemical survey of London. We measured isotopically exchangeable Pb (E-values; PbE), phase fractionation of Pb by a sequential extraction procedure (SEP) and inferred source apportionment from measured Pb isotopic ratios. Isotopic ratios (206Pb/207Pb and 208Pb/207Pb) of total soil Pb fell on a mixing line between those of petrol and UK coal or Pb ore. The main determinant of the isotopically exchangeable Pb fraction (%E-value) was soil pH: %E-values decreased with increasing pH. In rural roadside topsoils, there was also evidence that petrol-derived Pb remained more labile (35%) than Pb from soil parent material (27%). However, in biosolid-amended and London soils, %E-values were low (~25%), covered a restricted range and showed no clear evidence of source-dependent lability.

For PM 2.5 and PM 10 collection different approaches were followed using different type of filters and sample collectors. Samples of PM 2.5 were collected on glass fiber filters during one month with a medium volume sampler. For PM 10 , glass and quartz fiber filters were used and samples were collected simultaneously for one week using a high volume sampler. In addition, bark samples were collected at the same sites.

“…Bearing in mind the general problem in the region whereby low-quality fuels (biomass, culm or even refuse) are procured and burned for domestic purposes, the main source of water-soluble Hg in the coarse fraction could be waste incineration. In general, Sb is naturally present in soil [27]; hence, anthropogenic sources can be attributed to the resuspension of road dust, due to vehicular activities like brake wear [28,29]. In the region, Sb is also emitted from long-term mining and smelting activities [30].…”

Abstract. The analysis reported in this study was performed to characterize the concentrations and water-soluble content of trace elements (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb and Se) in PM2.5, PM10 and PM2.5-10 samples collected in the surroundings of power plants in southern Poland. The solubility of trace elements bound to PM2.5 and PM10 was higher than for PM2.5-10, and in most cases, significant differences were revealed in the relative percentage concentrations of the water-soluble fractions. The occurrence of Cd, Cr, Mn, Ni, Pb and Se in first PCA (Principal Component Analysis) factor (PC1) − indicate coal combustion processes as the potential source of these elements. Other factors indicate two further anthropogenic sources: the resuspension of road dust due to vehicular activities and waste burning in domestic sources − factor (PC2), and, soil dust sources affected by fugitive dust from the mining processes and unpaved roads, as well as transportation and deposition of coal −factor (PC3).
