“…H. compressa can be regarded as a new hyperaccumulator of copper especially compared to a few other plants. A translocation factor (TF) lower than 1.0 and higher than 1.0 is a feature of metal excluder and metal accumulator plant species, respectively [70,71]. The recorded TF and EC values clearly reflect capacity of this plant to accumulate metal and clean soil.…”

The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of different fungal species on the metal uptake from paper sludge by Hemarthria compressa L. Paper sludge (PS) in various concentrations (0, 30% and 60%) were used with four treatments of two fungal species (F0 = Control, F1 = Aspergillus niger, F2 = Trichoderma pseudokoningii, F3 = A. niger + T. pseudokoningii). Paper sludge as rooting medium steadily influenced growth and physio-biochemical attributes of H. compressa in F0. Results revealed discrete variations in growth attributes with different PS concentrations and each fungal treatment. The maximum damages in ionic homeostasis (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+) due to PS toxicity were evident in parallel with declined chlorophyll concentration. The highest growth, total chlorophyll and biomass of the plants were observed when PS was treated with combined fungal strains (F3). Translocation factor decreased with F3 that is indicative of changes in Cd, Pb, and Cu movement to shoot from root. The plants with combined fungal treatment also showed greater catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and peroxidase (POD) activity. Ions, such as Ca, Mg, and Na, also increased gradually with combined fungal treatment. The correlation matrix displayed a close association among diverse fungal and PS levels with multiple plant attributes. PCA-Biplot confirmed the outcome of correlational analyses among different characters of H. compressa. The combined fungal mediate the extraction of heavy metals from the paper sludge by H. compressa recommends the high accumulation of heavy metal (HM) and possible reutilization of metal free sludge as a fertilizer, for application in cultivated fields. Furthermore, the effects of fungal species on HM attenuation in PS are linear and can be used in different habitats. Advancement in such research work will also be helpful in understanding the mechanisms and enhancing the ability of other native microbes to remediate metals.

“…Sample pellets prepared from a homogeneously grounded powdered mass of each leachate sample using a pellet maker (Specac, UK) were irradiated by EDXRF for elemental analysis. The entire process and validation of the analytical system were described elsewhere ( Hossain et al., 2020 ; Jolly et al., 2013 , Khan et al., 2019 ; Akter et al., 2019 ).…”

This study was carried out to characterize the biogeochemical and physicochemical properties of landfill leachate from Matuail Sanitary landfill site, Dhaka, Bangladesh. In addition, the study also aimed to identify the photodegradation of landfill leachate under natural sunlight. The leachate pH was slightly alkaline (7.87–8.07) with a minimum level of dissolved oxygen, and low BOD 5 /COD ratio that are indicators of the matured methanogenic phase. Ca, Fe, Br, Rb, Cu was present in a considerable amount. A trace amount of Sr, Co, As, Pb, Cr was found in the leachate sample. Fourier Transform - infrared (FTIR) spectra of all three samples had five major peak regions notably at 3440–3450 cm −1 (O–H groups of water), 1638 cm −1 (C=O Amide I, carboxylates C=C, aromatic ring modes, or alkenes), 1385–1390 cm −1 (deformation of the C–H bond in CH 2 and CH 3 , or the asymmetric stretching of COO¯), 1115 cm −1 (stretching of the C–O bond in phenol ethers and phenols) and 605 cm −1 (S–O bends of sulfates). In addition to the appearance of new peak, peak shifting on the 2 nd -day and 5 th -day phototreatment are in compliance with the 34% TOC reduction. From analyzing three-dimensional excitation/emission (3D-EEM) spectra of the raw sample pyrene-like or humic-like peak A (Ex 255/Em 465), soil fulvic-like peak M p (Ex 315/Em 450), and humic-like peak C (Ex 370/Em 455) was found indicating more humified characteristics of the mature landfill site. From 1-hour to 6-hours phototreatment, all three substances slightly lost fluorescence intensity. From the 2 nd day to the 5 th day of photo-treatment, two unknown photo-product was identified within Ex 210/Em 457 and Ex 205/Em 408 at peak A region. Fluorescence intensity lost was 65% for peak A and 44% for peak C. Soil fulvic-like peak M p was absent on the 5 th day of photo-treatment.

“…As apparent in Table 6 , the specific macroalgae tissue evaluated in recent studies has not generally been specified 55 , 56 . Of note is that heavy metal and trace element concentrations have been observed to vary significantly in macrophytes from salt marshes, specifically between roots, shoots, and leaves 36 . Sáez et al studied the bioaccumulation of metals in the thallus (blade, stipe, and holdfast) of the kelp Lessonia trabeculata 71 , finding metal-specific affinity in certain parts.…”

“…The elemental concentration was analyzed by energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectroscopy, as described in our previous study 36 . In brief, a 109 Cd point source with an X-ray beam (at 22.4 keV) was applied to excite the prepared samples and produce characteristic X-ray detected by the Si(Li) detector (Canberra™) which has a resolution of 175 eV at 5.9 keV, amplified by the spectroscopy amplifier and processed by the multichannel analyzer MCA (6 K + channel).…”

“…Improving the sensitivity of readings and nullifying the matrix effects, the calibration curves were constructed via the use of the commercially available standard reference material (SRM) Orchard leaf/NIST 1571. The average peak areas of the EDXRF irradiated SRM pellets (at least three pellets) prepared using a similar configuration to that of the algae samples were then plotted in terms of the presence of the elements as a function of atomic number 36 . Validation of the calibration curve constructed for elements present in the standards was performed via analysis of another standard reference material, Spinach/NIST 1570a, again prepared in the same way as the algae sample 35 .…”

Although coastal water marine algae have been popularly used by others as indicators of heavy metal pollution, data within the Bay of Bengal for the estuarine Cox’s Bazar region and Saint Martin’s Island has remained scarce. Using marine algae, the study herein forms an effort in biomonitoring of metal contamination in the aforementioned Bangladesh areas. A total of 10 seaweed species were collected, including edible varieties, analyzed for metal levels through the use of the technique of EDXRF. From greatest to least, measured mean metal concentrations in descending order have been found to be K > Fe > Zr > Br > Sr > Zn > Mn > Rb > Cu > As > Pb > Cr > Co. Potential toxic heavy metals such as Pb, As, and Cr appear at lower concentration values compared to that found for essential mineral elements. However, the presence of Pb in Sargassum oligocystum species has been observed to exceed the maximum international guidance level. Given that some of the algae species are cultivated for human consumption, the non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic indices were calculated, shown to be slightly lower than the maxima recommended by the international organizations. Overall, the present results are consistent with literature data suggesting that heavy metal macroalgae biomonitoring may be species-specific. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents the first comprehensive macroalgae biomonitoring study of metal contamination from the coastal waters of Cox’s Bazar and beyond.
