Heavy Metal Pollution

0 - Default Title
Description
Industrialization in developing countries has triggered urban sprawls and indiscriminate exploitation of earth resources leading to environmental degradation and pollution. Heavy metal pollution is only a specific type of problem arising out of it. In a series of 26 papers, this issue on pollution of heavy metals such as Pb, Zn, Cd, Cu, Cr, Co, Ni, Hg etc. has been examined in some strategic sites of India, as case studies. This collection of papers can be considered to be first of its kind to present large amount of analytical data on heavy metal pollution of basic matrices such as air, water and soil in environmentally fragile locales of India and is expected to be of use to a large spectrum of students, Research workers, Environmentalists, Govt. Depts. and NGOs. Even International Organizations and funding agencies may find it useful as reference work for development of their target sites. Most importantly, the collected data here will represent base level pollution in the respective sites during the period of study. Observations made here will help in undertaking precautionary measures to prevent heavy metal pollution of developing sites.
