Mar 19, 2021 · Heavy metals accumulate in their given chemical form or in combination with other metals, making it difficult to remove them from water (Suhada et al., 2016). Trace quantities of these metals (e.g. Co, Cu, Cr, Fe, Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, and Zn), are necessary for metabolic activities, to avoid diseases and syndromes in humans ( Tchounwou et al., 2012 ).

Nov 1, 2016 · This paper aims to review the state of research on heavy metals in drinking water in developing countries; understand their types and variability, sources, exposure, possible health effects, and removal; and analyze the factors contributing to heavy metals in drinking water.
Jun 15, 2022 · Water has become a major threat in today’s world. Collection of heavy metals, a few of them, is potentially toxic and these get distributed to different areas through different pathways. With an increase in the earth’s population, development and industrialization are taking place rapidly and these get the major source of water contamination.
Jun 6, 2023 · Heavy metal contamination of water sources has emerged as a major global environmental concern, threatening both aquatic ecosystems and human health. Heavy metal pollution in the aquatic environment is on the rise due to industrialization, climate change, and urbanization.
Jan 1, 2023 · The activities include blowing of winds, run off water which ultimately leads to enhanced concentration of heavy metals in the soil’s top layer that ultimately pollutes water and air which possess life threatening effects on the living organism residing in these habitats.
Mar 31, 2024 · Abstract. Heavy metal ions can be introduced into the water through several point and non-point sources including leather industry, coal mining, agriculture activity and domestic waste....
Mar 4, 2024 · Water can become contaminated with heavy metals and metalloids because of excessive urbanization, industrialization, coal mining activities, dumping of high metallic wastes, fertilization, anthropogenic activities, and wastewater irrigation.
