AB  - This article aimed to identify sources and transport pathways of macro- and microelements in large urbanized rivers under significant anthropogenic pressure. To achieve the objective of this study, the geochemical characteristics of the sediments of the Sava and Danube Rivers and the soils flooded by the Kolubara River were determined. The high content of Mg indicates the dominant origin of the material from loess deposits. The significantly higher contents of Cr and Ni in sediment and soil samples from the Obrenovački Zabran (OZ) than in the samples from the Veliko Ratno Ostrvo (VRO) are the result of increased anthropogenic pressure. Sediments from the VRO show increased Sn and Sb contents. The increase in the content of chalcophile elements is the highest in the sediments from the OZ and ranges from 1.8 to 2.7 times, compared to their concentrations in the Earth’s crust. The soils from OZ and the sediments from the VRO show a decrease in the content of chalcophile elements compared to the sediments from the OZ so the increase is 1.2–1.5, and 0.9–2.3 times, respectively compared to the Earth’s crust. The obtained results revealed that the yield of sedimentary material that has higher concentrations of microelements decreases already at a distance of several km.

AB  - Microplastics are tiny plastic particles and 
fragments that are less than 5 millimeters in size. 
These particles can be found in various 
environmental compartments. They are a growing 
concern due to their potential environmental 
impact and the challenges they pose for ecosystems 
and human health. Microplastics can vary in shape, 
composition, and size, with some being so small 
that they are not visible to the naked eye (nano 
dimensions). This diversity makes the detection 
and analysis of microplastics a complex scientific 
field. 
When conducting microplastics analysis, it is 
essential to choose the appropriate combination of 
instruments and techniques based on the sample 
type, and expected particle sizes. 
Additionally, methods for the analysis of 
microplastics are still being developed and have 
not been brought to the level of standards. Like all 
other methods of analysis, this procedure involves 
the extraction of particles from the matrix [1] and 
then an analysis that enables the confirmation of 
the identity of the polymer from the point of its 
particle composition. Particles that are mixed 
polymers also often appear. That is why it is most 
practical, and at the same time the most expensive, 
to have several different techniques to determine 
the type of particles. Everything gets complicated 
when applied to micro and nano particle sizes.
Today, different instrumental techniques are 
used for the detection of microplastics, depending 
on the dimensions of the particles to be identified.
FTIR Spectrometer works by measuring the 
absorption of infrared light by the sample, 
providing information about the types of polymers 
present. Raman Spectrometer is uses the scattering 
of laser light to provide information about the 
molecular structure and composition of 
microplastics. SEM with Energy-Dispersive X-ray 
Spectroscopy (EDS) capable to visualize the 
surface morphology of particles and when coupled 
with EDS, it can also provide information about the 
elemental composition of the particle. Micro Raman spectrometers are specialized for 
micrometar sizes particles. Pyrolysis instrument 
and GC-MS system that burns microplastics and 
this products are analyzed using GC-MS.
None of these techniques have been accepted as 
standard so far. And this will probably be decided 
for a long time, because the particle sizes are in a 
very wide range and not all of these techniques are 
sensitive and reliable enough for particles of micro 
and nano size. The choice of technique will also be 
influenced by the way the results are expressed

AB  - This study aimed to investigate the impact of road and rail traffic on the soil through the analysis
of the presence of heavy metals in soil samples collected next to a busy highway, local roads, and
next to an active railway line. Results showed that cars emitted higher levels of heavy metals than
trains. Soil samples near the highway had higher levels of Cu, Ni, and Hg. The values of the
calculated indices like geo-accumulation index, potential toxicity response index, ecological risk
factor, contamination factor, pollution load index, Nemerow’s pollution index, and degree of
contamination confirm that the soil samples sampled near the highway are the most polluted and
highway have the greatest negative impact on the soil environment. These results suggest that
controlling car emissions through strict regulations and promoting public transportation could
effectively reduce the heavy metal concentrations in soil, particularly from highway emissions.

AB  - The main objective of this study is to determine the possibility of predicting the impact
of land use and soil type on concentrations of heavy metals (HMs) and phthalates (PAEs) in soil
based on an artificial neural network model (ANN). Qualitative analysis of HMs was performed
with inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectrometry (ICP/OES) and Direct Mercury
Analyzer. Determination of PAEs was performed with gas chromatography (GC) coupled with a
single quadrupole mass spectrometry (MS). An ANN, based on the Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–
Shanno (BFGS) iterative algorithm, for the prediction of HM and PAE concentrations, based on land use and soil type parameters, showed good prediction capabilities (the coefficient of determination (r2) values during the training cycle for HM concentration variables were 0.895, 0.927, 0.885, 0.813, 0.883, 0.917, 0.931, and 0.883, respectively, and for PAEs, the concentration variables were 0.950,0.974, 0.958, 0.974, and 0.943, respectively). The results of this study indicate that HM and PAE concentrations, based on land use and soil type, can be predicted using ANN.

AB  - Microplastic (MP) pollution is one of the most pressing environmental problems of 
the 21st century. In the EU, between 75.000 and 300.000 tons of MP are released 
into the environment every year. MP are ubiquitous, being found in seas, lakes, rivers 
and estuaries, air, sediments, landfills, and wastewater treatment plants because of 
improper human disposal of plastics and inadequate waste management. Life cycle 
assessment (LCA) is frequently promoted as a tool to assess environmental impact. 
LCA is regulated in accordance with ISO 14040 and implies a process that examines 
environmental aspects and potential environmental impacts on the product or 
service life cycle. While LCA is a valuable environmental tool, its application to MP 
has not been sufficiently developed and investigated. The purpose of this paper is to 
critically review the LCA modeling of MP. Several leading LCA software were 
analyzed. Based on the conducted research, it was concluded that there are very few 
databases used by LCA software, which can be connected to MP. In addition, it was 
concluded that for these types of analysis, it is best to observe the life cycle of plastic 
waste, focusing on the concept according to which waste is considered a resource.

AB  - Purpose To anticipate the impact of illegal landfills, development of new models should become a part of environmental 
risk management strategies. One of such approaches includes applications of the artificial neural network (ANN). The main 
objective of this study was to elucidate the impact of illegal landfilling on the surrounding soil environment and human 
health, as well as to establish an artificial neural network (ANN) models for predicting the hazards of illegal landfilling as 
an effective tool in decision-making and environmental risk management.
Methods The identification of heavy metals source in soil was performed by principal component analysis (PCA). To assess 
the sensitivity of the soil ecosystem to heavy metal concentrations, Soil Quality standards and quantitative indices were used. 
The possible health effects were valued using the average daily doses (ADDs), hazard quotient (HQ), hazard index (HI), 
and carcinogenic risk (CR). ANN modeling was used for the prediction of heavy metal concentrations in the soil based on 
landfill size, municipality size, the number of residents, plant species, soil, and landform types.
Results The average values of the pollution indexes for Cd were in the moderately contaminated and very high contamina tion categories. The HQ values were lower than the safe level. Cr and Pb posed a significant CR for adults and children, and 
Ni for children. The ANN models have exhibited good generalization power and accurately predicted the output parameters 
with a high value of the coefficient of determination.
Conclusion Concerning heavy metal concentrations, illegal landfills near agricultural soil have a significant impact on the 
soil ecosystem and people’s health. The developed ANN models can be applied generally to anticipate the heavy metal 
concentrations in soil, according to the before mentioned input parameters, with high accuracy.

AB  - In the period from 2017 to 2022, 4,500 soil samples from the territory of Vojvodina were 
analyzed as part of the program for monitoring non-agricultural land. The results showed that 
the biggest problem was the presence of phthalate esters, which in certain locations were higher 
than the maximum allowed concentrations. Phthalate esters are plasticizers that are added to 
plastic products to improve their characteristics. A big problem appears in countries that do not 
have or do not implement waste management regulations and a large number of plastic products 
end up in landfills. Phthalates can be washed out from evreday plastic products as well as from 
plastic films, sewage irrigation, sludge, composting and mulching films used in agriculture and 
thus end up in soil and water bodies. The next risk is the possibility of the decomposition of 
plastic products under the influence of environmental conditions (photodegradation, 
thermooxidative degradation, hydrolytic degradation, and biodegradation by microorganisms). 
They can be broken down into smaller particles with dimensions smaller than 5 mm, which is by 
definition microplastics. Given that both polluting substances generally have the same origin it 
is necessary to quantify the correlation between the amount of microplastics and the 
concentration of phthalates. This results helped us in the exposure assessment process and in 
prediction the environmental concentrations of phthalates associated with microplastics in soil 
which was the goal of this research.

AB  - The interactions of heavy metals and cement phases in the solidification/stabilization (S/S) pro-cess have been examined. The S/S method was applied to the waste sludge contaminated with heavy metals to determine the conditions under which the treated materials can be safely disposed of at land-fills for inert, non-hazardous, or hazardous waste. Sludge samples were mixed with soil and sand to simulate improper sludge disposal directly into the soil. S/S technology was selected using different cement fractions to treat these contaminated samples. The use of Portland cement or mixtures of dif-ferent types of cement for the treatment of sludge containing heavy metals is widespread. Samples of leached content were analyzed for the presence of the following metals: arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn). The study results lead to the conclusion that the sludge contaminated with heavy metals after the application of S/S with the addition of different cement fractions is transformed into non-hazardous, monolithic material.

AB  - Dimethachlor is an herbicide used for oilseed rape protection. Previous studies have demonstrated its high mobility in the soil, which could lead to water contamination. This research aimed to determine the occurrence of dimethachlor and its metabolites (dimethachlor ethanesulfonic acid ESA and dimethachlor oxalamic acid OA) in surface water using a recently developed analytical method. This article is one of the first to document dimethachlor and its metabolites' presence in surface water samples. The samples were collected from the Danube river and Tisza river. The quantitative determination of dimethachlor and its metabolites in the obtained extracts was done by high-performance liquid chromatography. Descriptive statistical methods, including correlation analysis, cluster analysis, and principal component analyses, were utilized to analyze method validation experimental results. In addition, the artificial neural network (ANN) model was applied as an optimization tool. The developed ANN model adequately predicted observed variables, suggesting the optimum results were obtained at a pH value 7, spike value 1, and injection volume equal to 0.5 mu L. The average concentrations in Danube River samples were 1.51 mu g/L for OA 0.01 mu g/L for ESA, and 0.63 mu g/L for DMC, while the average concentrations of chloroacetanilide herbicides detected in Tisza River samples were 1.43 mu g/L for OA, 0.08 mu g/L for ESA and 1.82 mu g/L for DMC.

AB  - The negative external effects caused by traffic growth have been recognized as the main factors that degrade city quality of life. Therefore, research around the world is being conducted to understand the impact of traffic better and find adequate measures to reduce the negative impact of traffic growth. The central part of this research consists of mathematical models for simulating the negative consequences of congestion and noise pollution. Four non-linear models for determining noise levels as a function of traffic flow parameters (intensity and structure) in the urban environment were developed. The non-linear models, including two artificial neural networks and two random forest models, were developed according to the experimental measurements in Novi Sad, Serbia, in 2019. These non-linear models showed high anticipation accuracy of the equivalent continuous sound level (Laeq), with R-2 values of 0.697, 0.703, 0.959 and 0.882, respectively. According to the developed ANN models, global sensitivity analysis was performed, according to which the number of buses at crossings was the most positively signed influential parameter in Laeq evaluation, while the lowest Laeq value was reached during nighttime. The locations occupied by frequent traffic such as Futoska and Temerinska positively influenced the Laeq value.

abstract = "The negative external effects caused by traffic growth have been recognized as the main factors that degrade city quality of life. Therefore, research around the world is being conducted to understand the impact of traffic better and find adequate measures to reduce the negative impact of traffic growth. The central part of this research consists of mathematical models for simulating the negative consequences of congestion and noise pollution. Four non-linear models for determining noise levels as a function of traffic flow parameters (intensity and structure) in the urban environment were developed. The non-linear models, including two artificial neural networks and two random forest models, were developed according to the experimental measurements in Novi Sad, Serbia, in 2019. These non-linear models showed high anticipation accuracy of the equivalent continuous sound level (Laeq), with R-2 values of 0.697, 0.703, 0.959 and 0.882, respectively.

AB  - Stabilization/solidification (S/S) methods are applied in processes of the treatment of waste before to secure landfill disposal and the treatment of contaminated soil. In Serbia understanding of this method is limited. Republic of Serbia has 375 sites where land contamination is confirmed in laboratoty analysis. The most of identified sites are present in non-sanitary municipal landfills and uncontrolled dumps which require remediation. This paper analyzes possibilities of application of S/S methods in remediation of soil contaminated with copper (Cu). Cement based S/S method is applied to samples of contaminated materials. In some samples, additive, based on natural and synthetic zeolites, is added to cement. The level of Cu leached is indicator of the efficiency of S/S methods. The results show the conditions under which the S/S methods could be used for the most efficient immobilization of Cu in contaminated soil.

Methods: We used methodology appropriate for social science: analyses of documents, historical approach and comparative analysis. Results: The finding shows the urgent need for accepting of crises and emergency risk communication principles, or some similar concepts, in Serbia, and implementing effective two way communication especially in multiethnic region. The pragmatic value of the paper lays in information about the recent improvement of health workforce and emergency services in emergencies using new concept of communication and as source of numerous useful documents published in USA and few recent Serbian examples. Conclusion: Health workforce has significant role in the process of protection of population in emergencies. Policy makers should work on finding a way to improve their coordination and communication, creating new academic programs, providing of adequate training, and financial means in order to give them different role in society and provide visibility. From other side health workforce should build back to the citizen trust in what they are doing for society welfare using all their skills and abilities.

AB  - Kontaminacija zemljišta nastaje kao rezultat ekscesnog ispuštanja opasnih materija i njihovog 'mešanja' sa supstancama koje su prirodno prisutne u zemljištu. Odlaganje otpada na neadekvatno opremljenim deponijama predstavlja potencijalnu pretnju po zagađenje životne sredine. Deponije otpada mogu da naruše kvalitet okolnog zemljišta, površinskih i podzemnih voda. Po podacima iz Izveštaja o stanju zemljišta u Republici Srbiji (2010), na području Srbije identifikovano je 375 kontaminiranih lokaliteta, među kojima najveći procenat čine deponije komunalnog otpada (1700 ha zauzetih odlaganjem otpada). Pomenute deponije su u većoj ili manjoj meri neuređene, i imajući u vidu njihove specifičnosti, do sada nisu sprovedena istraživanja u cilju procenjivanja njihovog uticaja na zagađenje okolnog zemljišta i podzemnih voda. U radu je predstavljen segment istraživanja izvršenih u okviru Doktorske disertacije: 'Razvoj metodologije za sanaciju zagađenih područja', kroz analizu mogućnosti imobilizacije arsena, kao zagađujuće materije, prisutnog u zemljištu na lokaciji odlagališta otpada, primenom metode stabilizacije/solidifikacije uz dodatak različitih matriksa: cementa i smeše cementa i imobilizacionog agensa na bazi prirodnih i sintetskih zeolita. Cilj istraživanja je utvrđivanje nivoa izlučivanja arsena iz S/S uzoraka i s tim u vezi ispitivanje mogućnosti njihovog daljeg korišćenja u formi korisnih proizvoda. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na mogućnost različite primene dobijenih solidifikata (zavisno od udela cementa i cement/aditiva u efikasnoj imobilizaciji arsena) kroz bezbedno odlaganje na deponijama inertnog ili neopasnog otpada kao i kroz dalju upotrebu u građevinskoj industriji. Zavisno od potencijalne primene dobijenog solidifikata potrebno je izvršiti dodatna ispitivanja koja se odnose na kvalitet zahtevanih karakteristika.
AB  - This paper analyzes the possibility of immobilization of arsenic, as pollutants present in soil at the landfill site by using the method of stabilization / solidification with cement and/or cement with aditives addition. The survey aims to study level of As immobilization by using leaching test from S/S samples and is in this connection to examine the possibilities of their safe disposal. The results indicate that the arsenic contaminated soil after treatment with S / S method with the use of cement as well as cement/additive mixture, as a matrix can be safely disposed of in landfills for inert and non hazardous waste. There are some possibilities for use such blocs as a construction material in the construction industry, but further investigation must o be carried out. The paper presents selected results from research activities developed in Doctoral dissertation: 'The development of the rehabilitation of polluted areas'. Main focus is in application of remediation technologies on soil contaminated by As, originated from waste disposal sites. Remediation is based on process of solidification, by using cement and cement/additives as a matrix (in the S/S).

AB  - Sector of tourism, as well as other sectors sensitive to climate changes, requires certain measures of mitigation and adaptation to those changes in order to minimise its consequences. This paper analyses two-way connection between tourism and climate changes, i.e. influence of the climate on tourism and vice versa, with special attention given to measures of mitigation and adaptation. Adaptation could be defined as process of generation of strategies for adequate dealing with consequences of climate changes, while mitigation of climate changes influences implies changes in social, technical and economy sector in order to reduce GHG emission. For the purpose of adequate implementation of climate changes adaptation and mitigation strategies in the sector of tourism, among other tasks it is necessary to introduce sustainable tourism, which represents branch of economy having minimum influence on environment and local culture, simultaneously supporting profitability, new working places and protection of local ecosystem.
