Revealing the Hidden Toxin of the Bottom Ashes from Open Municipal Waste Burning

(Corresponding) Ramadan B., Rosmalina R., (Corresponding) Rachman I., (Corresponding) Matsumoto T.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

Bottom ashes caused by open waste burning (OWB) contains a large amount of metal, which can harm human health when exposed directly to human or leached into the waterways. This study aims to reveal the metal in the bottom ashes and its potential health impact. Laboratory field studies which consist...Read more
