摘要

Disposal of the increasing amounts of fly ash from coal-fired thermal power plants is a serious concern to the geo-environmentalists. The generated fly ash being disposed in ash ponds acts as source for heavy metal, which leads to soil and water contamination in the vicinity of power plants. In the present study, an attempt was made to measure heavy metal contamination of soil samples, surface water, and ground water around the Kakatiya Thermal Power Plant, Warangal. Soil samples from two locations and water samples from different water sources in the vicinity of thermal plant were analyzed for heavy metal contamination using microwave plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy. Results highlighted that the presence of heavy metal contamination in water samples found to be more than the permissible limits whereas in soil samples, no traces of heavy metals were found. The water drawn from selected sites was largely contaminated by lead (Pb) and mercury (Hg), whose permissible limits were above the WHO and BIS drinking water standards. It was also noted that high concentration of Pb was witnessed. Furthermore, adsorption studies were carried out to lower the concentration of observed metal ions within the drinking water standards. Biochar, a cost-effective material derived from agricultural waste, is used as an adsorbent in this study. Adsorption studies highlighted that the concentration of Pb was successfully brought within the drinking water standards whereas biochar was ineffective with Hg.
