Abstract

Electroplating industrial waste contains considerable concentration of some potentially toxic heavy metal wastes. These wastes have toxic effect on environmental flora and fauna. One of the potentially toxic content is the cadmium present in toxic waste. This paper aims to compile the toxic effects of electroplating processing waste and available methods for the removal of cadmium. This paper reviews about the different removal methods available for cadmium and the research studies associated with the topic. The studies of toxic effect of cadmium on different environmental segments are also described.
