Abstract

The present study was focussed about the analysis of selected heavy metal in the five sampling stations from the Ranipet district. Effluent and soil (surface:<30cm and deep: >30cm) samples are collected from all the stations (TCC limited, Emerald Nagar, Puliyanganu lake, Puliyanganu and Karai SRP nagar). By acid digestion method, the heavy metal composition of the samples were analysed. Among the five stations, effluent chromium levels found high in Puliyanganu (S4) whereas high incidence of surface and deep soil Cr levels observed as 990.28±121.3 and 1685.47±221.6mg/Kg respectively.Our results evidenced that the heavy metal levels in the tested sampling stations were above the permissible limits.
