Short Description 6.2.1 - Total heavy metals load released from industrial installations to the Mediterranean marine environment
Definition Six heavy metals have been identified in SAP-MED. These include:

i. Mercury. The most important industrial sources of mercury are combustion of coal in power plants; chlor-alkali production; manufacture and disposal of batteries; waste incineration and roasting and smelting in non-ferrous metal smelters.
ii. Cadmium. The most important industrial sources of cadmium are zinc and lead metal processing; electroplating; the production of cadmium compounds; pigment production; the manufacture and disposal of batteries; the production of stabilizers for plastics and phosphate fertilizers.
iii. Lead. The most important industrial sources of lead are lead metallurgy; the manufacture and disposal of batteries; additives for petrol; enamels and ceramic glazes and glass manufacture.
iv. Zinc is a commonly occurring trace-metal and is essential to living organisms for enzymatic functions. High levels of zinc are found in coastal areas and biota. Dispersion and diffusion can rapidly remove zinc.
v. Copper: The most important industrial sources of copper are metallurgy, covering of metallic surfaces; electric cables and pesticides.
vi. Chromium: The most important industrial sources of chrome are: chrome metallurgy; covering of metals; tanneries; textile and wool dyeing; corrosion inhibitors in closed cycle cooling systems.
