The effect of large-scale firework events on urban background trace metal concentrations was investigated using 24 hr data collected over 3 days at three sites in Busan Metropolitan City, Republic of Korea, during the falls (Oct.) of 2011–2013. The firework events increased local background concentrations of trace metals as follows: K (1.72 times), Sr (2.64 times), As (2.86 times), Pb (2.91 times), and Al (5.44 times). The levels of some metals did not always drop to background level one day after the firework event. The contribution of fireworks to trace metal concentration levels (and emissions) for 2011 event was negligible compared to 2012 and 2013 events due to different meteorological conditions (precipitation). In addition, the impact of firework events on the ambient concentration levels of trace metals was likely to be different depending on their chemical speciation. The impact of firework events in Busan on urban air quality (trace metal) was less intense compared to other similar festivals worldwide. The largest emission of trace metals and elements from firework burning was represented by K (128–164 kg), followed by Pb, Cd, Cu, Mg, Ba, As, Al, Ga, Co, and Na.

Adsorption kinetics of Ni, Cr, and Pb on gravels collected from constructed wetland was studied at varied metal concentrations and contact period for estimating the removal of heavy metals from wastewater. Batch experiments were conducted by shaking 120 ml of metal solutions having 5 concentration levels each of Ni (1.0, 2.0, 3.5, 5.0 and 6.0 mg l-1), Cr (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0 mg l-1), and Pb (1.0, 3.0, 6.0, 8.0 and 12.0 mg l-1) with 50 g of gravels for as function of time. Adsorption of Ni, Cr, and Pb on gravels ranged from 34.8 to 47.2, 42.7-54.9, and 47.5-56.9%, indicating their removal in the order: Pb > Cr > Ni. Freundlich model showed a good fit for Ni and Cr (R2>0.9) while Langmuir model fitted better for Pb (R2= 0.7). The pseudo-second-order model showed the best fit to simulate the adsorption rates of these metals on gravel.
