In this book chapter, the sources of heavy metals in the environment, pathways, ecological fate and footprints, eco-toxicological effects, regulatory frameworks, treatment technologies, valorization options and recovery in light of the future perspectives are explicitly discussed. The possible resources ...

The concentrations and sources of heavy metals in shallow sediments in Lake Bafa were investigated. The concentrations of nine heavy metals and the total organic carbon content in sediment samples were determined for between Summer 2015 and Spring 2016. The mean contents of heavy metals were in dec...
However, establishing a natural background of Pb is challenging as Pb has been used since the Neolithic or New Stone Age, which predates both the Copper and Bronze Ages7,8,9,17. Furthermore, the onset and degree of Pb pollution in the environment in the Northern Hemisphere show considerable...
Heavy metals (HMs) are considered crucial toxicants of the environment as they are very toxic, tenacious, easy to accumulate, and nondegradable in nature. HM pollution include some natural sources such as breakdown of rocks possessing metals, eruption of volcanoes and certain human activities like...
