Investigation of pollutant metals in road dust in a post-industrial city: Case study from Detroit, Michigan

Investigation of pollutant metals in road dust in a post-industrial city: Case study from Detroit, Michigan

Inhalation and/or ingestion of toxic heavy metals enriched in road dust have toxic effects on humans. From inhalation and ingestion of dust, release of readily bioavailable elements sorbed on to dust, could lead to health issues such as lung or skin cancer, kidney dysfunction, hypertension, dermal l...
