Abstract

Contamination of heavy metals in sediments and soils are of increasing concern. Heavy metals sources in sediments and soils mainly include presence of sediments as well as anthropogenic sources. Heavy metals are not biodegradable they tend to persist over long-term periods in the sediments and soil template. They can be mixed or elated to underground and surface water as well as uptake by agricultural crops or food crop which leads to concerns over animal and human health. Heavy metal contaminated sediments have direct adverse effects on aquatic life and ecosystems. Poisoning of food chain and loss of recreational enjoyment are the most potential problems caused by contaminated sediments.
