Review of Remediation of Hg & Cd from Industrial Waste water Using Different Methods
Abstract: Global modernization increasing adverse impact to the aquatic environment mainly due to industrial discharge of waste water. The industrial waste containing nutrients and heavy metals i.e. Hg and Cd leads to eutrophication in water bodies. Various industries released various heavy metals to the natural water bodies. Any kind of heavy metals released to the environment is carcinogenic or toxic in nature. So removal of heavy metals from waste water is …

Risk Assessment of Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in Fish Samples from Otamiri River, Imo State, Nigeria
Abstract: The presence of Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in water poses human and ecological health risks in Nigeria. Polychlorinated biphenyls present in three fish species (T. Zilli, E. Fimbriata and C. Nigrodigitatus), and its related health risk via consumption of fish from Otamiri river in Imo State Nigeria has been duly investigated in this study. A risk quotient (RQ) for fish consumption was applied to evaluate the related health risk. A total …
