Surface water is heavily exposed to contamination as this is the ubiquitous source for most
of the water needs. This situation is exaggerated by the excessive population, heavy …

Heavy metals in drinking water pose a threat to human health. Populations are exposed to
heavy metals primarily through water consumption, but few heavy metals can bioaccumulate …

Groundwater is defined as water that exists underground in voids or gaps in sediments and
is extracted for human consumption from aquifers. It is critical to our daily lives because it …

This study collected past sampling data on total concentrations of 12 heavy metals (Cd, Pb,
Cr, Hg, Zn, Cu, Ni, Al, Fe, Mn, As, and Co) in surface water bodies, ie, 168 rivers and 71 …

Current work focus on microplastic (MPs) occurrence in the water, sediment, and aquatic
species (fish, crab, and snail) of the Buriganga River, Bangladesh, with an ecological risk …

Contamination of heavy metals in sediment is regarded as a global crisis with a large share
in developing countries like Bangladesh. Four heavy metals such as arsenic (As), chromium …

River water is very much important for domestic, agriculture and industrial use in
Bangladesh which is in critical condition from long time based on research data. During last …

The concentration and chemical fractionation of globally alarming six heavy metals (Cr, Ni,
Cu, As, Cd and Pb) were measured in surface water and sediment of an urban river in …

Heavy metals occur naturally in very small amounts in living organisms, but exposure to their
higher concentrations is hazardous. Heavy metals at hazardous levels are commonly found …

Concentration of eight heavy metals in surface and groundwater around Dhaka Export
Processing Zone (DEPZ) industrial area were investigated, and the health risk posed to local …
