Isotopic and Geochemical techniques to study Groundwater Pollution
Sajjad Munir is a young, motivated Geo-scientist from Bahria University
Islamabad, Pakistan. His areas of interest are Isotope Hydrology, Geochemistry, Seismic interpretation and GIS and Remote Sensing. He has worked
on many environmental and geological issues in Pakistan including groundwater characterization of Islamabad water resources (published) and impact of industrial waste waters of Wah Cantt., Taxila and Hattar Industrial Estates (Analytical work in progress).

Groundwater (deep and shallow) in Islamabad particularly in vicinity of
Lei Nala were characterized by environmental stable (δ13C) and
Radioactive (tritium) isotopes as well as hydrogeochemical parameters
such as physiochemical (pH, EC, TDS, DO and temperature), major cation
(Ca+2, Mg+2, Na+1, K+1), anion (NO3-1, SO4-2, CO3-2, HCO3-1, Cl-1)
and toxic metals (Zn, Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni, Fe, As, Cr and Co). Piper diagram
reveals that Ca-Mg- type of water is dominant in the studied area. The
percentage of samples falling under Ca-Mg-type was 53.86 %. For anion
concentration, HCO3-type of water predominated with 96.15 % samples.
Stable isotope techniques in combination of conventional classical
techniques have been applied for this investigation Stable carbon
isotope techniques have helped to understand the level and source of
contamination in groundwater. The more depleted δ13C (TDIC) values
around –8 to –11 ‰ PDB are mainly indicative of inventory of domestic
sewage pollution. As such, this study indicates the potential of δ13C
(TDIC) technique in relation to physiochemical techniques for
assessment of the sources of pollution.

good effort :) keep it up
Thanks buddy ;)
Buddy but some people are behaving ridiculous to ths effort
Another Bulshit.....
Em Given A demand note by HoD instead of acknowleding my effort.....
Real Bulshit man.... THats the way they treat their researchers....
A big one :)
Great
