     Due to rapid urbanization and industrialization that occurred in Al- Muthanna province in southeastern Iraq during the last decade, pollutants such as heavy metals were emitted into the environment and became a serious threat to human health. Environmental pollution could be caused by different types of pollutants, which come from different sources.      This study aims to assess the environmental magnetism efficiency for heavy metal pollution assessment using the magnetic susceptibility technique which became a more rapid and cost-effective compared to conventional methods. Increasing heavy metal contents in soils causes an increase in the magnetic mineral concentration. The study area is located in Al- Muthanna province, southeast of Iraq, and contains three cement plants, an oil refinery, bricks factories, and power plants. Fifty topsoil and subsoil samples (0-50 cm depth) were collected from five sites; Al-Jinoob cement plant (one site), Samawa oil refinery (two sites) and Al- Muthanna cement plant (two sites). In this study, magnetic properties of samples in vertical sections and levels of heavy metal elements; of selected samples from regions with different geological settings were compared. The heavy metals analysis included chromium (Cu), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), Arsenic (As) and lead (Pb), which could give indications of heavy metal pollution in soil. The highest magnetic susceptibility value (65.23 x10-8 m3kg-1) was recorded in Al-Muthanna cement plant (TSL-4) and the highest Cu concentration (602.57 ppm) was also recorded in Al-Muthanna cement plant (TSL-5-3). The results of magnetic properties show the dominance of coarse magnetite, which is supposed to have originated from pedogenic particles in natural soils, causing the positive correlation between magnetic susceptibility (χ) and anhysteretic remanent magnetisation (ARM). According to the results of frequency dependent susceptibility ratio (κfd%), the magnetic particles showed an admixture of multi-domain and pseudo-single domain behaviour. Magnetic susceptibility and heavy metal analyses results indicated emissions from nearby industrial plants. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was carried out for heavy metal analyses which supported our results. Results of this study demonstrate the suitability of applying magnetic techniques for assessing environmental situations.

We studied composition, structure, microstructure, and magnetic properties of percolating (Ni–Fe)x(SiO2)1−x granular thin films. We found that the magnetic susceptibility increases and the coercivity decreases when increasing x toward xt, the critical metallic volume fraction for the metal-insulator transition, and the susceptibility decreases and the coercivity increases when increasing annealing temperature for x just below xt. Comparison of the microstructure and the magnetic properties suggests that the enhanced magnetic susceptibility for x just below xt is probably associated with the labyrinthine structure of the granular magnetic particles where there is an enhanced surface-to-volume ratio of the magnetic particles.

Preparation of micro magnetic particle and its magnetic propertis from iron sand beach of Batang Kapas west Sumatera using Ball Milling method has been done. Prior to the Ball Milling process, the samples were processed by iron sand separator (ISS) in order to separate between magnetic particles and non magnetic one. Next, the concentrates from ISS were crushed by Ball Milling method  as a function of time namely 20, 40, and 60 hours. For separation between magnetic particles and non magnetic one, then NdFeB magnet was utilized. The results showed that the magnetic degree of the sample is about 0,5%. Measurements of magnetic induction solenoids were carried out using a Magnetic Probe Pasco PS -2162 as a function of current (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10) A and a  functions of distance (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) mm. Then the total magnetic induction of the solenoid (solenoid with sample core and concentrate) was measured as a function of an electric current for a fixed distance of 1 mm. The calculation results showed that magnetic susceptibility and mass susceptibility increase with Ball Milling time from (3376,400-7765,130). This value is within the interval of 46-80000 which is the interval of Ilmenite mineral (FeTiO3; Antiferromagnetik). The increase in magnetic susceptibility and mass susceptibility of samples processed by Ball Milling is thought to be due to the increasing number of magnetic particles in the sample.

The work is devoted to the study of pollution by technogenic magnetic particles and heavy metals of soils in the city of Gubakha, Middle Ural (Russia). The aim of the work is the ecological and geochemical assessment of the elemental chemical composition of the soils of the city of Gubakha, and the establishment of the geochemical role of technogenic magnetic particles (TMPs). For the first time, the regularities of the spatial distribution of magnetic susceptibility in the soils of the city of Gubakha were revealed, and the morphology, elemental and mineralogical compositions of magnetic particles in the soils of an industrial city in the Middle Urals were characterized using the methods of the chemical extraction of iron compounds, magnetic separation, ESEM/EDS, and Mössbauer spectroscopy. The magnetic phase of soils contains magnetite/maghemite, hematite, pyrrhotite, intermetallic alloys and chromite. Spherical magnetic particles are hollow, and have a magnetite shell and a varied surface texture. The crystal lattice of magnetite is characterized by low stoichiometry. The heavy metals Zn, Cu, Ni and Cr are concentrated in magnetic particles and have a high correlation coefficient with magnetic susceptibility. The level of contamination of Cu, Ni, Zn, Cr and Mn in the soils of a residential zone of Gubakha, estimated by the value of the pollution load index (PLI), was high. The Igeo index for Fe ranges from 6.2 to 12.2, for Cu–1.1 and Ni–1.1. The combination of methods for measuring magnetic susceptibility, determining the mineralogical composition of iron compounds, and determining the elemental chemical composition by X-ray fluorescence, has shown the effectiveness of an integrated approach for carrying out an ecological–geochemical assessment of the soil cover of Gubakha.

The concentration of selected trace elements and the magnetic properties of samples of the lichen Evernia prunastri exposed for 3 months in Milan (Italy) were investigated to test if magnetic properties can be used as a proxy for the bioaccumulation of chemical elements in airborne particulate matter. Magnetic analysis showed intense properties driven by magnetite-like minerals, leading to significant correlations between magnetic susceptibility and the concentration of Fe, Cr, Cu, and Sb. Selected magnetic particles were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope and Energy Dispersion System microanalyses, and their composition, morphology and grain size supported their anthropogenic, non-exhaust origin. The overall combination of chemical, morphoscopic and magnetic analyses strongly suggested that brake abrasion from vehicles is the main source of the airborne particles accumulated by lichens. It is concluded that magnetic susceptibility is an excellent parameter for a simple, rapid and cost-effective characterization of atmospheric trace metal pollution using lichens.

Magnetic properties studied were magnetic degree, magnetic induction magnetic susceptibility, and mass susceptibility of sample. The samples used were volcanic ash taken from the west part of Sinabung, precisely at Gurukinayan village. The ash samples were taken horizontally on the slopes of the Mountain with the amount of 1.5 Kg each point with the number of 10 points (A to J). Separation of concentrate of ash was done using a Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB). The magnetic induction of ash and concentrate was measured using a Pasco 2162 Probe using a solenoid is 3 cm in diameter, 10 cm in length and 2000 coil turns. Magnetic induction without a core was measured as a current function (2,4,6,8,10)A and a distance of 1 to 5 mm. The total magnetic induction of ash and concentrate was measured as a current function and the particle sizes was measured using a Light Microscope. The results showed that the greate magnetic degree value at point B of 7.02% and the lowerst level of magnetism is at point J was 1.07%. The largest particle sizes is at point B and the smallest is at point J with particle size of 0.175-0.90 mm. The highest average magnetic susceptibility value for concentrate at point B is 87.32 x 10-3 and the lowest at point F is 20 x 10-3. Based on the mass susceptibility value of the concentrate obtained the volcanic ash of Mount Sinabung is at interval (46–80.000) x 10-8 m3/kg of mass susceptibility value at each location point which contains Ilmenite particles (FeTiO3).

Magneto Rheological Elastomers (MREs) are composite materials based on an elastomer filled by magnetic particles. Anisotropic MRE can be easily manufactured by curing the material under homogeneous magnetic field which creates column of particles. The magnetic and elastic properties are actually coupled making these MREs suitable for energy conversion. From these remarkable properties, an energy harvesting device is considered through the application of a DC bias magnetic induction on two MREs as a metal piece is applying an AC shear strain on them. Such strain therefore changes the permeabilities of the elastomers, hence generating an AC magnetic induction which can be converted into AC electrical signal with the help of a coil. The device is simulated with a Finite Element Method software to examine the effect of the MRE parameters, the DC bias magnetic induction and applied shear strain (amplitude and frequency) on the resulting electrical signal.

The main objective of this research was the determination of the geochemical and mineralogical properties of particulate matter: TSP (total suspended particles) and, especially PM1 (particles with aerodynamic diameter not greater than 1 µm) suspended in the air of a selected urban area in southern Poland. Identification of the emission sources of metals and metalloids bound in TSP and PM1 as well as the assessment of potential risk of urban ambient air to human health using hazard indices was an additional aim of this investigation. The daily TSP and PM1 quartz fiber filters collected during heating season were subjected to mass magnetic susceptibility (χ) measurements, SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) observations and geochemical analyses. Obtained results revealed that the concentration of TSP and PM1 well correlated with their mass-specific magnetic susceptibility. The good relationship between the PM concentration and χ suggests that magnetic susceptibility measurements can be a good proxy of low-level atmospheric dust pollution. The rank order of potentially toxic elements (PTE) based on average concentration was Ba > Zn > Al > Fe > Pb > Mn > Ti > Cu > Cr > Ni >As > Cd > V > Tl, both for TSP and PM1. PM1/TSP ratios for PTE concentrations and χ were around or slightly above unity, which indicated that PM1 was the main carrier of PTE (with the exception of cadmium, copper and lead) and technogenic magnetic particles. The non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks were confirmed by very high values of human health indices.
