Assessment of Heavy Metals Contamination using Geochemical Indices and Potential Risks in Road Dust of an Urban Environment in Delta State, Nigeria

This study assessed heavy metals (HMs) contamination in road dust using geochemical indices and their potential risks from an urban environment in Delta State, Nigeria. Fifteen road dust samples were sampled, digested in aqua regia and their HMs concentrations determined using atomic absorption spectrometry.
