Heavy metals pollution assessment in industrial area soil of Mysore city, Karnataka, India

The Mysore city is second largest growing city in Karnataka state, India. In recent days industrialization is growing in very faster rate than any other activities. Due to industrialization, the pollution load for water, air and soil has increasing day by day. To find out the heavymetal pollution from the industries which they have adopted for their production purposes we carried out the research work by dissolving the extracted soil sample in tri acid mixture method. In the present study it reveals that the heavymetals concentration is at the nearby maximum level. The results shows that iron level ranges from 2.5gm/kg to 6.7gm/kg, copper varies from 6.8mg/kg to 20.3mg/kg, chromium occur in range of 6.6mg/kg to 22.0mg/kg, whereas zinc found in range of 66mg/kg to 121 mg/kg and nickel was found in a range of 10mg/kg to 18.1mg/kg.
