UNIT 05 Marine-Pollution-PPT.pptx
Marine pollution comes from a variety of sources including land-based runoff, oil spills, sewage, heavy metals, and plastics. There are five main types of pollution inputs: direct discharge, runoff, ship pollution, atmospheric deposition, and deep sea mining. Ship pollution includes oil spills and cargo residues while atmospheric pollution includes dust and plastic debris. Deep sea mining disturbs habitats and causes plumes of sediment. Human impacts like eutrophication, acidification, plastic debris, and other toxins threaten marine life. Noise pollution from ships also affects animals, and mitigation requires education and pollution reduction efforts.
Ireland
Ireland is facing many environmental issues that threaten its natural resources. Agricultural intensification is negatively impacting river water quality more so than industry. Vehicle emissions are reducing air quality. Greenhouse gas emissions have risen 30% above 1990 levels, double the target amount set by the Kyoto Agreement. Littering is widespread and damaging landscapes, coastal areas, and habitats. However, Ireland is taking steps to address these problems through new agencies and enforcement of environmental laws, and some signs of improvement have been seen in reducing pollution in rivers and urban air quality. Public concern over the environment is growing and initiatives like a plastic bag levy have increased recycling and reduced emissions.

Price of Gold Mercury Use and Other Issues in ASGM - January 2011
This document summarizes a study on artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) in the Philippines. It finds that ASGM is widespread in around 20 provinces and accounts for the annual discharge of 70 metric tons of mercury into the environment. Mercury is commonly used in gold mining due to its ability to bind to gold, despite its toxic effects. The document examines gold and mercury trading practices, mining and processing techniques, and environmental and health impacts of mercury pollution from ASGM. It concludes with recommendations to reduce mercury use such as banning mercury trade and providing technical support for mercury-free alternatives.
Trg product, asm presentation, cepmlp
The document discusses artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM), which is difficult to define due to its flexible nature varying between countries. ASM is characterized as extraction activities that are subsistence-based, technologically poor, labor-intensive, and often operate informally or illegally. The primary concerns with ASM are that the majority operates illegally, there is a lack of recognition as an economic sector, and ASM faces obstacles to formalization like complex regulations. Addressing these issues requires tailored legislation, provisions for health and safety, and engagement with ASM groups.

This document summarizes a study assessing mercury emissions and recovery from artisanal and small-scale gold mining at Sikonge Gold Mine in Tanzania. The study introduced techniques to optimize mercury use and reduce environmental pollution, such as reprocessing tailings, using a mercury retort to capture mercury during amalgamation, and weighing mercury to determine losses. These methods recovered 73% of mercury lost over two months. While mercury pollution from small-scale mining poses risks, the introduced techniques helped reduce emissions and recover mercury from tailings.

Responsible gold mining and value distribution - Terry Heymann - 2014 FDI Sta...OECD Directorate for Financial and Enterprise Affairs
The World Gold Council developed a new report to quantify the economic contribution of leading responsible gold mining companies. The report provides a collective analysis of the value distributed to stakeholders, including employees, suppliers, governments, communities, and investors. It found that 15 participating gold mining companies employed over 220,000 people in 2012. The companies spent $55 billion total in 2012, with 79% or $44.7 billion spent in the countries where operations are located. The report aims to show how gold mining supports socioeconomic development through jobs, skills training, supply chain opportunities, social investment, and infrastructure.Gold Mining & Exporation Company – Positioned for Responsible Growth - Markus...

Direct smelting of gold concentrates is proposed as an alternative to mercury amalgamation for small-scale gold mining in Ghana. Laboratory and field tests showed direct smelting recovered 99.9% of gold compared to 97% for amalgamation. It is cheaper and does not use hazardous mercury. Challenges include developing alternatives to charcoal fuel and improving crucible integrity for processing different concentrate types. Direct smelting is presented as a viable replacement for amalgamation in small-scale gold mining.Viewers also liked (20)

2012 7 June Panel 2a Jane Dennison
This document discusses artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) and mercury pollution. It notes that ASGM provides livelihoods for 10-20 million people but also causes significant environmental degradation and mercury emissions when mercury is used without proper controls. Projects aim to reduce mercury use in ASGM by demonstrating that other extraction methods can yield more gold with less health and environmental impacts. Negotiations are underway for a global treaty to reduce mercury pollution from ASGM and other sources.
Ensuring harmonious relations among investors and communities in an emerging ...
The document discusses potential areas of conflict between investors and communities in Ghana's emerging oil and gas industry, drawing on lessons from mining areas globally. It identifies several key issues: 1) Economic ventures and influx of non-indigenes could cause tensions as outsiders prosper while locals lack skills; 2) Unequal development and disputes over land use between companies and indigenous groups have occurred elsewhere; 3) A lack of effective communication and consultation about industry risks and impacts has led to mistrust and protest. The document proposes improved information sharing, land management tools to support livelihoods, financial benefits like royalties for communities, and employing local youth, to help ensure harmonious relations.
Microplastics is destroying microworld
Microplastics pollution has become a major issue in the Ganges River, with the highest concentrations found in Varanasi. Untreated sewage and industrial waste released into the river break down into microplastic particles that enter the food chain and are consumed by both marine life and humans. Government programs aimed at cleaning the Ganges such as Namami Gange and Swachh Bharat Abhiyan have had little success in addressing microplastics pollution or proper waste management. While bans on single-use plastics are a step in the right direction, innovation is also needed to develop substitutes and reduce humankind's dependence on plastics.

Abstract of 'Health Effects of Western Region Illegal Gold Mining':
The presentation concerns:
1. A discussion of conclusions drawn on ground- and surface-
water statistical analysis in the Western Region of Ghana,
since 2010.
The analysis concerns Heavy Metals (HM), as by-product of
gold-mining industries: small-mining (so-called Galamsey)
and large-mining.
2. A survey of the health-effects, available medical investi-
gations and therapy of HM poisoning by polluted water.
Because Mercury, Arsenic and Lead were the main focus
of statistical analysis in the Western Region, the health-
effects of those metals were central in the discussions.
3. The conclusion of the study, with recommendations,
comprising:
a. Transparency in mining practices;
b. Institution of Water-Watch-Groups as representatives
of stakeholders;
c. Replacement of the assigned inspectors;
d. Elimination of Arsenic in waste-water at source;
e. Reduction of all other toxic Heavy Metals in mining-
waste-waters;
f. Urgent update to recent scientific standards;
g. Bring polluters & perpetrators to justice through Fast-
track procedures;
h. The President may take the initiatives mentioned in
the Ghana Constitution, Part II Emergency Powers
Art. 31;
i. Assign Pollution research to an independent
Research-institute, preferably an institute from a non-
ex-colonial country;
j. Introduce, as soon as possible, law-enforced non-
toxic gold-extraction methods;
4. In the Way Forward are mentioned:
a. Mercury suppliers in Ghana and an example of
Mining-Industry with a dubious mission;
b. 3 Examples of Toxic-free chemical Gold-Extraction
Methods;
c. 2 Examples of Chemical-free Gold-Extraction
Methods;
d. concluding: recommended methods for Small- and
Large-gold-mining Industries;
My Tarbell Stories.
This article explores how AI can help address environmental issues caused by industrial and illegal mining in Ghana. It details the significant environmental and economic costs of mining in Ghana, such as air and water pollution, land degradation, and deforestation. The article recommends that Ghana strengthen regulations on mining, invest in AI and remote sensing technologies to monitor mining activities, promote sustainable mining practices, increase public awareness, and improve institutional capacity to preserve the country's natural resources. It argues that leveraging AI can help investigate mining's impact, detect illegal operations, and aid policymaking to mitigate environmental challenges in a sustainable way.
Introduction to Public Administration: Lantugiay
The document summarizes a debate and forum on mining in Cagayan de Oro City. The event discussed the pros and cons of banning mining in the city. Advocates for mining argued it provides jobs and benefits the economy, while opponents linked mining to environmental damage from Typhoon Sendong. Speakers from indigenous groups, NGOs, and the DENR discussed impacts on their communities. While mining is necessary, the author believes the Philippines has a corrupt system that allows destructive mining without benefiting many people. Responsible mining policies are needed that consider environmental and social impacts.
Coastal pollution and management
This document discusses coastal pollution in India. It begins by providing background on India's coastline and sources of coastal pollution such as domestic waste, industrial effluents, and agricultural runoff. It then examines the impacts of pollution on coastal ecology like loss of coral reefs and mangroves. The document presents various methodologies that can be used to reduce coastal pollution, including reducing single-use plastics, participating in beach cleanups, and supporting bans on certain pollutants. It also includes a case study on the impact of pollution on the marine environment of coastal Mumbai. The conclusions state that the effects of contaminants on coastal ecosystems are difficult to assess and that both natural factors and human activities can aggravate pollution issues

This document discusses the proposed Tampakan Copper-Gold mining project in Mindanao, Philippines. It outlines some key points in favor and against allowing the project, including potential economic benefits but also significant environmental and social impacts. It notes that over 1,000 families would be displaced and critical watersheds supplying water to thousands could be damaged. The document calls for a total economic valuation of ecosystem services and adoption of a watershed approach to properly assess the full costs and impacts of the proposed mine.
The Poisoned Poor
The document discusses toxic pollution from industrial chemicals, mining, and agriculture that affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide. A review of over 3,000 toxic sites found as many as 200 million people are directly impacted. Toxic pollution disproportionately affects poor communities and can hinder economic development if not addressed. The Global Alliance on Health and Pollution was formed to help low- and middle-income countries implement solutions to toxic pollution problems.
Task 4!
Surfers Against Sewage (SAS) is an environmental charity established in 1990 to campaign for clean, safe recreational waters. SAS undertakes conservation, education, and research to protect oceans, waves and beaches. Their campaigns have addressed issues like water quality, marine litter, and climate change through community organizing, petitions, and raising awareness. SAS now mobilizes thousands of volunteers for beach cleanups and educates the public on responsible behaviors to reduce pollution and protect coastal environments.
2012 7 June Development Conference Readout
This document summarizes discussions from a conference on enhancing development potential in artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM).
Key points discussed include: partnerships are needed to address ASM challenges; clarifying property rights and addressing issues like overlapping claims are important for strengthening ASM; while ASM brings poverty, proper investments could make it a viable economic activity; and technical assistance is needed to help miners reduce environmental damage and adopt safer techniques.
Panel discussions covered topics like opportunities and constraints facing ASM in different countries, best practices for preventing environmental harm and facilitating site rehabilitation, and examples of projects providing alternative livelihoods to miners through activities like fish farming and market gardening to rehabilitate mined land.

23 March 2012Mine Waste A Social Deviance
This study aimed to assess abandoned mine waste from the Maricalum Mining Corporation (MMC) in Sipalay City, Philippines. The researchers conducted direct observations of MMC areas including the tailings pan, open pit, drilling and blasting sites, watershed, residential areas, and mine foot. They also analyzed documents on MMC's mining operations and impacts. Through interviews with former MMC employees, the researchers found that large quantities of abandoned mine waste had been left behind, destroying the local ecosystem. The Mines and Geosciences Bureau determined the waste needed removal. However, due to the large volumes, a systematic removal plan was required. The researchers thus proposed a mine waste cleanup and management implementation plan

With little or no post-mining land reclamation or rehabilitation activities occurring in East Kalimantan, one of Indonesia’s most heavily mined provinces, SETAPAK partners have been working with a coalition of NGOs to press for improved government regulation.
"Turning Garbage Into Trees"
This proposal suggests mainstreaming the National Greening Program (NGP) into the Provincial Greening Program (PGP) in Southern Leyte, Philippines. It proposes establishing 150 community school tree nurseries that would produce 3 million coffee and cacao seedlings per year. This would generate an estimated PHP 1.05 million in annual income for farmers after 3-5 years and PHP 525 million annually thereafter. It would provide livelihoods for communities involved in composting, bamboo and nipa production for the nurseries. The goal is to empower schools through community-shared agriculture and environmental education while alleviating poverty and building climate resilience.
Future watch development_banks_and_greenmining
The development banks, particularly the World Bank and Inter-American Development Bank, provide significant financing for mining projects in developing countries and have focused on improving the environmental performance and formalization of artisanal and small-scale mining. These banks have provided technical assistance for reforming mining sectors and improving livelihoods in the artisanal and small-scale mining industry. There remain opportunities to support this industry through improving health, safety, technology and socioeconomic conditions in countries across Latin America, Africa, and Asia where artisanal and small-scale mining is prevalent.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Artisinal and Small Scale Gold Mining in Bagong Silangan
- 1. Reducing Mercury Pollution in Artisanal and Small-scale Gold Mining (ASGM)
- 2. Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is a significant global development issue. As a vital contributor to the Philippine economy, the magnitude of pollution from small-scale gold mining activities presents a major threat to human health and the environment.
- 4. For Ban Toxics and the international community, the prevalent use of mercury among ASGM communities in the Philippines is a major disaster waiting to happen – and correlates to an even more serious threat to the health of the people, its environment and the rest of the world.
- 5. An urgent action is needed to address this major problem – and requires partnership among the CSOs and the international community, local governments and ASGM communities.
- 12. The Project, Reducing Mercury Pollution in ASGM aims to prevent mercury pollution by technical training, awareness raising and strengthening of civil society organizations to eliminate the use of mercury in small scale gold mining.
- 14. One of the project sites in Ga’ang, Kalinga, exhibited a very positive response to BAN Toxic’s intervention.
- 19. The outcome of BT’s three-year presence in the area resulted to the conversion of 95% of the small-scale miners in Ga’ang to use mercury-free methods.
- 20. This translates to preventing at least 2 tons of mercury from being released during the mining process.
- 30. This success would not have been possible without the miners’ openness to change, the local government’s support, and the wisdom of the elders of the Banao-Bodong Association to understand the problem. And they acted on it.
