The concentration of heavy metal content at different operational zone on peat soil at Felcra Sri Mendapat / Mohamad Nazmi Mohamad Sharif
Heavy metals are bioaccumulation and non-degradable elements in the soil. The contamination by heavy metals in soil is one of the important issues and requires attention because heavy metals above the maximum allowable concentration will threatened to both plants and living things. I was therefore o...
