“…This is in agreement with the findings by Andreas and Zhang (2016). But, Pb existed mainly in the inert phase within the Control as reported by Asmoay et al (2019). V existed primarily as the reducible fraction in the oil-bearing soils which is consistent with the result of Agnieszka and Barbara (2012).…”

“…However, the metal existed principally in the residual fraction in the control site as reported by Adebiyi and Ayeni (2021).Ni existed predominantly in the reducible (Red) fraction within the oil-bearing soils as previously reported by Wali et al (2015). Conversely, in the control site the greatest proportion of Ni was found in the inert fraction as obtained by Asmoay et al (2019). Pb occurred mostly as oxides and hydroxides of Fe and Mn (reducible fraction) in the oil-bearing soils.…”

The physicochemical properties, total metal, metal fractions, and related human health problems of metals in oil-bearing soils of Akwa Ibom State were appraised using standard procedures. The study aimed at assessing the effects of crude oil and related activities on the properties of soil including metals (Cd, Cr, Ni, Pb and V), their fractions and associated health problems. Results showed that, levels of parameters were higher in the soils examined than in the control. The entire metals examined, apart from Cd, were within their acceptable limits however; higher than the limits for agricultural soils. Cd and Cr existed mainly in the readily available fraction, while Ni, Pb, and V occurred mainly in the reducible fraction in the studied soils. Conversely, these metals, except Cd, occurred principally in the inert fraction in the control. V/Ni ratio confirmed the soils as oil-forming continents and of organic matter origin. The natural factor, crude oil, and oil-related activities were major sources of soil contaminants. Anthropogenic proportions of metals were more in the soils investigated than in the background soil. The locations were contaminated with metals. Daily intake rates of metals were within their recommended doses except for Pb. The pollution status of the oil-bearing soils and the related human health risks have been revealed.

“…If HM concentrations surpass the reference limits in soils, pollution ensues. This contamination can get into foods and water, which causes harmful effects on human health (Asmoay et al, 2019). Fe levels in most samples ranged from 2.8 to 6.3 ppm, not outpacing the FAO & Hooda (2010) reference limits (Table 1).…”

From the reclaimed land W-the western desert road, W-Mallawi district, El Minya Governorate of Egypt, sixteen soil samples were taken. The samples were physically and chemically analyzed in the USA, to evaluate the purity of the soil and its extracts using a variety of indices, including the soil quality index (SQI), sodium absorption ratio (SAR), base saturation percentage (BS%), summation pollution indexes (Psum), and the comprehensive ecological risk index (RI), which was also compared with guidelines from the food and agriculture organization (FAO). The findings indicate that (1) the pH changed from weakly to moderately alkaline, controlling the adsorption and heavy metal (HM) immobilization. (2) Soils are classified as calcareous if their CaCO3% content is greater than5%, with salinities varying from non-saline to moderately salty. (3) texture of 75% of the soil samples was clay, 25% was clay loam, Kaolinite minerals represented 25% of soil samples, and 75% of samples were montmorillonite minerals, depending on the relation of cation exchange capacity (CEC) with soils. (4) The predominance of SO4, Cl, & Ca is due to the degradation of carbonate and evaporite minerals in soil extracts. (5) exceeding N & P-compounds in extracts indicated the role of phosphate fertilizers, which added to the improvement of soil fertility. (6) Based on SQI readings, soil quality varied from poor to marginal, SAR revealed that there was no risk associated with sodium levels in soils, and according to BS percentages, soil fertility is low. (7) HM Contents had a low influence in soil extracts based on Psum & IR values. (8) Agriculture was more extensive in 2018 and 2020 than in 2022, which could mean that there was no farming throughout this growing season or harvest. (9) Due to the low fertility of the soil in the research location, it was advised not to apply phosphate fertilizers, which causes HM contamination in those soils that affect both animal and human health. Capsule: The Soil in the research sites were newly reclaimed as its quality is pivotal for agriculture.

“…Lead is acknowledged to be responsible for haemoglobin and anaemia biosynthesis illness, upsurge in blood pressure, waned fertility of men via sperm destruction and behavioural disturbances of children, such as aggression, impulsive behavior and hyperactivity. It is also acknowledged to trigger protein precipitation, via lead ions contact with the sulphydryl homeostasis (-SH) groups of proteins (Ojo, 2017;Asmoay et al, 2019;Briffa, et al, 2020).. Cadmium is acknowledged to affect several enzymes in the body. The renal destruction that ensues in proteinuria is the effect of cadmium negatively having an effect on enzymes in charge of proteins reabsorption in kidney tubules.…”

Heavy metal contamination of soil can present dangers besides threats to humans as well as the ecosystem via uninterrupted intake or interaction with contaminated soil and the food chain. The purpose of this research is to examine the effectiveness of calcined calcium carbide waste (CCCW) in mitigating the leachability of lead and cadmium ions in contaminated soil from Evbareke spare parts market Benin City, Edo State Nigeria. Contaminated soil samples were collected using quadrant sampling method at the depth of 0-15cm with soil auger. The calcium carbide waste was obtained from a panel beating workshop dumpsite. The calcium carbide waste was dried to constant weight in an oven at 105oC. 50g of the dried calcium carbide waste (CCW) was crushed in a mortar to obtain a powdered form. The X-ray diffraction analysis for the CCCW revealed that it was made up of predominantly portlandite (47%), calcite fraction (23.0%), dolomite (12.7%), coesite (8.6%), muscovite (4.5%) and lime (4.0%), this was corroborated by FTIR analysis. SEM analysis revealed that CCCW possess a rough surface with pore of varied size and irregular shape. The contaminated soil from the Evbareke spare parts market was contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, the soil was saline with low C.E.C. The soil texture was loamy-sand. As the amount of CCCW amended increase in the soil, the amount of cadmium and lead ions that was releasable in the soil reduced. The cadmium and lead ions in contaminated soil was stabilized hence reducing the cadmium and lead availability in the soil. The optimum amender amount in the contaminated soil to immobilize lead ion was 4% w/w and ≥2% w/w for cadmium ion. The CCCW effectively mitigated the leachability of lead and cadmium
