Pollution assessment

The study assesses the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) and institutional quality on the environment, while also determining the role of institutional quality in the environmental effects of FDI in developing Asian countries. By analyzing panel data from 10 developing Asian economies for the period 1996-2021 using the System Generalized Method of Moments, the research finds evidence confirming the negative impact of FDI on environmental quality in these countries.

In this study, marine debris with a size ≥ 5 mm was collected at seven locations along the coastline of Nha Trang during both dry and rainy seasons, accruing a total of 4436 items. During the rainy season, most beaches had more debris than that in the dry season, and marine debris density ranged between 0.009 items/m2 to 0.418 items/m2 . Results from the beach cleanliness index (CCI) assessment showed that CCI values ranged from 0.2 to 4.4 during the dry season, with beaches classified as either very clean or clean.

This has increased the risk of water pollution and reduced the quality of surface water, resulting in a shortage of clean water for the daily lives of people in the province. The article has studied the application of the MIKE11-ECOLab model and correlation analysis method to assess the current situation of the wastewater receiving capacity of the central river system in Nam Dinh province. At the same time, it also analyzes and predicts the wastewater receiving capacity of the central river system in the province according to the trend of socio-economic development.

This paper aims to evaluate the spatiotemporal distribution of six heavy metals (arsenic - As, cadmium - Cd, mercury - Hg, lead - Pb, zinc - Zn, and iron - Fe) in water and sediment environment and assess the pollution status of the heavy metals based on individual metals and overall metal contamination levels as well as a multiple metals index for the monitoring and sustainable management of estuarine environment of Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province.

The sediment quality assessment showed that trace element concentrations were lower than the limited values in the sediment quality guideline (QCVN 43:2017/BTNMT). According to the Igeo index, the sediments were not polluted by Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr, Fe, and As but were likely polluted by Hg and Mn in some sampling sites. Therefore, it is necessary to invest the future studies to assess the Hg and Mn concentration levels in these sites to protect the marine environment.

Estuary sediments contain toxic heavy metals which can pollute coastal wetlands. Ba Che river estuary is a coastal wetland with an area of 2,844 ha, which is affected by wastes in Ba Che river water and aquacultures. In this study, the accumulation of heavy metals in the Ba Che river estuary was assessed based on the enrichment factor (EF), the geo-accumulation index (Igeo), and the ecological risk index (RI).

In study "Impact of urbanization on seawater quality in Quang Ninh province" the authors use indicators to assess the level of water pollution, such as chemical and microbial pollution and measure the impact of urban factors, such as population growth, wastewater discharge and water consumption. In the survey results of seawater quality in two seasons, the rainy season and the dry season, there is a difference in some specific hydrological indicators, such as Coliform exceeding the allowable threshold in the dry season and iron and ammonium content tending to increase.
