Heavy metals concentration and pollution index (HPI) in drinking water along the southwest coast of Ghana

Abstract The concentration of seven heavy metals in water samples was analyzed along the southwest coast of Ghana in the wet and dry seasons using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Some physicochemical properties of the water samples were also determined to assess the quality of the water. The ra...
