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 ground water system.
Among these, heavy metals are some of the most serious pollutants.
Cd, a toxic heavy metal used in Ni-Cd batteries, the colouration 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.
Cd accumulates in the human body, especially in the kidneys, resulting in kidney damage (renal tubular damage), which is a critical health effect.
Other effects of Cd exposure are disturbances in calcium metabolism, hypercalciuria and the formation of kidney stones.
High exposure to Cd can lead to lung cancer and prostate cancer; hence, poor quality water that may result in Cd toxicity has become a global concern.
Thus, the aim of this study is to determine the concentration of Cd in underground water sources in western U.P.
regions.
Water samples were acidified to 1% with nitric acid and then stored in double-capped polyethylene bottles for further analysis by an atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
After comparing the data to the WHO (2011) permissible limit, the study revealed that the concentration of Cd was higher than the regulatory threshold; therefore, the underground water system is seriously affected by Cd toxicity.
