Impact of tannery effluents on the aquatic environment of the Buriganga River in Dhaka, Bangladesh
Abstract
This study presents an overview of the existence and effects of six heavy metals, chromium (Cr), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), manganese (Mn), and aluminum (Al), in tannery effluents released to the Buriganga River in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The pollutants were found in three different sources, such as effluents from tanneries, contaminated river water and three species of fish—climbing perch ( Anabas testudineus), spotted snakehead ( Channa punctata), and Black tilapia ( Oreochromis mossambicus) caught from the river. Tannery effluents, water, and fish samples were collected from three different factories, five sample stations, and three different harvesting points, respectively. Effluents from all three factories contained significant amounts of heavy metals, especially Cr (374.19 ppm in average), whereas lesser amounts were found in the tissues of the three fish species studied. The trends in tissue elemental concentrations of fish were Cr > Pb > Al > Hg > Mn > Cd. In most cases (Cr, Cd, Mn, and Al), heavy metal concentrations were found to be greater in climbing perch than in Black tilapia and spotted snakehead. Although the river water contained high concentrations of harmful heavy metals, the fish species under study had concentrations well below the permissible Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization levels for those metals and seemed to be safe for human consumption.

The concentration of chromium in tannery effluent determined in our study (0.002 mg/L to 1.85 × 10 mg/L) was significantly lower than that of another study (5.25 × 10 mg/L to 3.74 × 102 mg/L) conducted in the same tannery industrial area but different tanneries.
“However, the concentration of chromium in tannery effluent determined in our study was significantly lower (ranging from 0.002 mg/L to 1.85 × 10 mg/L) than that of another study (ranging from 5.25 × 10 mg/L to 3.74 × 102 mg/L) conducted in the same tannery industrial area but comprised of different tanneries55.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
