Author Description

Learn about the Impact, Assessment and Remediation of Heavy Metals Pollution. Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements that have played a significant role in human progress. Industrial development led to the use of heavy metals in a wide variety of fields-construction, industry, medicine, agriculture-and the unrestricted applications of these materials have had adverse effects on the environment. This book highlights recent research and technology in monitoring and remediation strategies for heavy metal contamination in the air, water and soil. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of heavy metals pollution, this material will be of interest to environmental scientists, policymakers and other key stakeholders working to address environmental pollutants.
