“…Nitrate (NO 3 − ) is one of the most common inorganic pollutants [6], because in the last decades, the overconsumption of both synthetic and organic nitrogen fertilizers has resulted in soil and groundwater contamination. Due to this reality, nitrogen groundwater pollution became one of the most challenging environmental concerns [12][13][14]. Infiltration from landfills, mining activities, and wastewater discharges lead to pollution with other inorganic substances, toxic substances, and compounds that can be associated with water salinity due to high concentrations of Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Na + , Cl − , and F − [7,15,16].…”
