dc.description.abstractThis study assessed the impact of an Anpara and Renusgar coal-based thermal power plants on drinking water sources. In this work, the concentration of trace metals such as Pb, Cd, Ni, and As in groundwater samples obtained from hand pumps located near these power plants were measured. The concentration levels of all the studied heavy metals in groundwater were found to be higher than the maximum acceptable limits of World Health Organization for drinking water. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
