“…Iron pipes are a source of arsenic. Zinc, arsenic, and copper are heavy metals that pose health risk issues, and their concentrations must be monitored in DWDS [24][25][26][27][28][29]. WHO has stated that although some epidemiological studies lack precision in the evaluation of exposure and the methodology development, there is clear evidence that cancer development is related to the consumption of elevated levels of drinking water contaminated with arsenic [30].…”

The inner walls of the drinking water distribution system (DWDS) are expected to be clean to ensure a safe quality of drinking water. Complex physical, chemical, and biological processes take place when water comes into contact with the pipe surface. This paper describes the impact of leaching different compounds from the water supply pipes into drinking water and subsequent risks. Among these compounds, there are heavy metals. It is necessary to prevent these metals from getting into the DWDS. Those compounds are susceptible to impacting the quality of the water delivered to the population either by leaching dangerous chemicals into water or by enhancing the development of microorganism growth on the pipe surface. The corrosion process of different pipe materials, scale formation mechanisms, and the impact of bacteria formed in corrosion layers are discussed. Water treatment processes and the pipe materials also affect the water composition. Pipe materials act differently in the flowing and stagnation conditions. Moreover, they age differently (e.g., metal-based pipes are subjected to corrosion while polymer-based pipes have a decreased mechanical resistance) and are susceptible to enhanced bacterial film formation. Water distribution pipes are a dynamic environment, therefore, the models that are used must consider the changes that occur over time. Mathematical modeling of the leaching process is complex and includes the description of corrosion development over time, correlated with a model for the biofilm formation and the disinfectants–corrosion products and disinfectants–biofilm interactions. The models used for these processes range from simple longitudinal dispersion models to Monte Carlo simulations and 3D modeling. This review helps to clarify what are the possible sources of compounds responsible for drinking water quality degradation. Additionally, it gives guidance on the measures that are needed to maintain stable and safe drinking water quality.

At part per billion (ppb) concentrations, heavy metals and pesticides both pose a significant health risk. Over-ingestion of pesticides and heavy metals in the environment may cause various diseases and effects on human life. So, a systematic analysis for detecting and removing pesticides and heavy metals from the environment is required. This review provides a comprehensive study of the several analytical methodologies employed in the quantification of heavy metal ions and agrochemicals in environmental samples. Furthermore, the detrimental impacts of these substances on both human health and plant life are also discussed. Moreover, a concise overview of the latest developments in the design of nanomaterial-based sensors, specifically focusing on colorimetric and electroanalytical approaches. These sensors are utilized for the detection and analysis of heavy metals and pesticides. In addition, the information garnered from the study will improved the capability to detect and remove contaminants from environmental samples.

Surface sediment samples obtained from 46 sites of the Unete River in Casanare (Colombia) were analyzed to evaluate the concentrations of the heavy metals As, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn as well as to determine their geographic spatial distribution and potential ecological risk. The measured concentrations were compared with the background values (BV), threshold effect concentration (TEC) and probable effect concentration (PEC) from consensus-based Sediment quality criteria guidelines (SQGs) for heavy metals in freshwater ecosystems in order to determine the level of concern of the contaminant concentrations. Based on these results and on the indices of determined potential ecological risk, As and Pb were shown to be the heavy metal contaminants of most concern in surface sediments. The possible sources causing the concerning concentrations were then discussed.
