Abstract

The main aim of the current study was to explore the concentration of heavy metals in River Siran at Parehna sampling station Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. For the study heavy metals were collected from three sampling stations such as Upstream, Midpoint and Downstream. Heavy metals selected in the current study were Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Pb, and Zn respectively. The recorded heavy metals in the current investigation were Zn 1.17-1.75 ppm; Cu 1.05-1.26 ppm; Cd 0.08-1.36 ppm; Pb 0.05-1.28 ppm; Cr 0.04-0.19 ppm and Mn 0.08-0.12 ppm respectively. From the present study, it can be reviled that Cd, Cu, Pb and Cr were found above the permissible ranges while Zn and Mn were within the permissible ranges.
