Book Abstract

Environmental Impact and Remediation of Heavy Metals, provides a thorough analysis of the ecological and health-related consequences of heavy metal pollution, alongside innovative strategies for mitigating these threats. Bridging environmental science with applied engineering, Environmental Impact and Remediation of Heavy Metals is a valuable reference for researchers, environmental practitioners, and policymakers. Its integration of risk assessment, remediation techniques, and real-world examples equips readers to better manage heavy metal pollution and promote environmental and public health. Heavy metals (transition metals, lanthanides, actinides) disrupt aquatic and terrestrial environments by altering water chemistry (e.g., pH, sediment dynamics) and accumulating in organisms across trophic levels, thereby threatening plant, animal, and human health.
