Assessing the level of contamination of metals in surface soils at thermal power area: Evidence from developing country (India)
The purpose of this study was to determine the concentrations and contamination level of heavy metals and metalloid (i.e., Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn, Pb and As) in sediment samples taken from a thermal power station's 5 km buffer area (Bandel thermal power station-BTPS) in West Bengal, India. The atomic a...
