Thirty-seven years of archives of environmental protection

Abstract

Archives of Environmental Protection is the oldest Polish scientifi c journal regarding environmental engineering and protection. It has been published by the Institute of Environmental Engineering of PAS in Zabrze since 1975. The Committee on Environmental Engineering of PAS became its co-publisher in 2011. The quarterly publishes original articles (earlier, also announcements) concerning broadly understood areas of the environmental engineering and protection. The subjects include: air, land and water protection; technologies of fl ue gases, soil and wastewater treatment; transformations and transportation of pollutants in the environment; measurement techniques used in research and engineering as well as environmental monitoring. The published articles also focus on the reclamation and management of derelict lands, environmental management and other questions related to the environmental engineering and protection. The journal has been abstracted by Thomson Scientific since 2006 in the following databases: Science Citation Index Expanded, Biological Abstracts and BIOSIS Previews. Moreover, the journal was given the impact factor (IF) in 2010. The following article presents statistical data as well as a brief history and description of the journal.

“…Among trace elements, the biggest cumulative load is present in lead (4.64 mg/kg DM. ), over three times smaller than (in comparison to Pb) copper (1.473 mg/kg DM), however the cumulative loads of the other trace elements do not exceed 1 mg/kg s.m (in the decreasing sequence: Ni -0.97 mg/kg Dm, Cr -0.94 mg/kg Dm, Cd -0.73 mg/kg Dm, zn -0.318 mg/kg Dm) which confirms the previously obtained results due to leaching test of granules (Rosik-Dulewska et al 2008). As far as macroelements are concerned, the biggest cumulative load is present in sodium (1813.2 mg/kg DM), and then (in the decreasing sequence) k (817.0 mg/kg Dm), li (17.5 mg/kg Dm).…”
