Heavy metal analysis of industrial discharges in Lagos, Nigeria

Heavy metal analysis of industrial discharges in Lagos, Nigeria

~ 240ca031c46a8745a0e5a21c35168180.200x200
An atomic absorption spectrometric analysis of the heavy metal components of waste water samples from three different industrial areas in Lagos state (Ikeja, Apapa and Victoria Island) spanning the dry and wet seasons was carried out. The heavy metals analyzed were Pb, Cu, Cd, Mn and Fe. The mean values of Fe were within the FMEnV and WHO limits used as standard while the mean values of Cd, Cu,...
