A Review on Studies on Effect of Heavy Metals on Man and Environment
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
The presence of heavy metals in the water is harmful to man and environmental. These heavy metals include elements like cadmium, nickel, lead, copper, zinc, manganese, mercury etc. Many heavy metals have their toxic effects on man and environment. The presence of heavy metal results in bioaccumulation and further it can affect the biological and ecological cycles. The current review summarizes the studies and research carried out to know the effect of heavy metals on man, environment, aquatic life, plant and ecology.
