商品描述

This book sheds light on this global environmental issue and proposes solutions to reduce contamination through multi-disciplinary approaches. Water is considered a vital resource because it is necessary for all aspects of human and ecosystem survival. However, due to natural processes and anthropogenic activities, various pollutants have been added to the groundwater system. Among these, heavy metals are some of the most serious pollutants. Cd, a toxic heavy metal used in Ni-Cd batteries, the coloration of plastic and various discarded electronic products released into the water system causes serious health issues. The chronic exposure to Cd produces a wide variety of acute and chronic effects in humans.

This edited book brings together a diverse group of researchers to address the challenges posed by global mass poisoning caused by cadmium contamination of water bodies.

This book contains three sections. The first section describes the different sources and distribution of cadmium in water ecosystem. The second section explains the health risks linked to cadmium toxicity. The third section addresses sustainable cadmium toxicity mitigation strategies and the potential applications of recent biological technology in providing solutions.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書闡明了這個全球環境問題並提出了多學科方法來減少污染。水被認為是一種重要的資源，因為它對人類和生態系統的生存的各個方面都是必需的。然而，由於自然過程和人類活動的影響，各種污染物已經被添加到地下水系統中。其中，重金屬是一些最嚴重的污染物之一。鎘是一種有毒的重金屬，用於鎳鎘電池、塑料著色和各種棄置的電子產品，這些都會釋放到水系統中，引起嚴重的健康問題。長期接觸鎘會對人體產生各種急性和慢性影響。

這本編輯書籍匯集了一群多樣化的研究人員，來應對由鎘污染水體引起的全球大規模中毒所帶來的挑戰。

這本書包含三個部分。第一部分描述了鎘在水生態系統中的不同來源和分佈。第二部分解釋了與鎘毒性相關的健康風險。第三部分探討了可持續的鎘毒性緩解策略以及最近生物技術在提供解決方案方面的潛在應用。
