Heavy metals are hazardous environmental pollutants and are becoming one of the most serious environmental problems because of their persistence, toxicity, non-biodegradability, and ability to be incorporated into the food chain. This book provides state-of-the-art techniques and technologies for the assessment and remediation of heavy metal ions from aquatic ecosystems. It discusses sources, fate, transport, health risk assessment, and remediation of heavy metals and the current methods for source identification and tracking, including the use of stable isotopes, fingerprinting techniques, and advancements in molecular biology for environmental monitoring.
