“…This observed behavioural changes was similar to the one observed by Ogelaka et al, (2017), they studied the toxicity of herbicide-paraforce on T. fuscatus. Results of physico-chemical determination (Table 1A), revealed that the pH value of the effluent was 6.75±0.05 which is similar to the pH ranges of 6.25, 6.35 and 6.40 obtained by Onuegbu et al, 2013, Bassey et al, (2018 and Gandhi et al, (2017) respectively in their works but slightly higher than the pH values (5.48±0.07 and 5.8±0.6) obtained by Osobamiro and Atewolara-Odule, (2015) and Jolly et al, (2012). In this study, the pH value indicated that the effluent was slightly acidic.…”

“…Comparing this value with the results of other researchers, it value was lower than the one (0.98±0.01) reported by Bassey et al, (2018) and the one (35.6mg/L) obtained by Oladele et al, (2018). In another report, the zinc value detected in this study, was higher than (0.067±0.004) stated by Jolly et al, (2012). According to Onuegbu et al, (2013), the low concentration of zinc in the paint effluent may be attributed to the low dosage of white and red pigments during the paint formulation.…”

Water pollution as a result of discharge of untreated industrial effluents into water bodies has now become a global problem. Acute and chronic toxicity testings were carried out on paint effluent against Tympanotonus fuscatus var radula and histopathological examination was used in assessment. The Paint effluent was obtained from President Paints Limited, Atan, Ogun State while the periwinkles were handpicked from the mud flat area of the University of Lagos lagoon front. Acute toxicity test was done using varying concentrations (300, 400, 500, 600 and 700ml) of the paint effluents for 96 hours and the mean mortality was calculated using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Physicochemical parameters of the paint effluent were determined following APHA standard methods for examination of water and wastewaters. Heavy metal levels were detected using the Atomic absorption spectrophotometer (SOLAR SERIES S2). The result obtained for these parameters were compared with WHO and NESREA permissible limits. All parameters complied with the standard regulatory limits except for the DO (1.80±0.02mg/L), Phosphate (229.85±3.05mg/L), BOD (132.00±4.00mg/L) and TSS (154.50±2.50mg/L) which were not in conformity with WHO and NESREA guidelines respectively. However, for the metals, zinc had the highest value of 0.1790±0.0020mg/L in the effluent while cadmium and chromium were not detected. The 96-h LC 50 value obtained was 7.51ml and this low value indicated that the effluent was very toxic. Histopathology examination on the whole tissue of the organism exposed to the paint effluent revealed partially destructed digestive tract and foot muscles with several aggregates of inflammatory cells. This result revealed the harmful and toxic effect of the paint effluent on the periwinkles and as such, proper treatment before discharge to the environment is encouraged.

“…And also COD in site Rainbow (RB), Zemilli (ZE), Nifas silk (NS) and MBI are beyond the permissible limit set by ES (250 mg/l) and also GS beyond the permissible limit of WHO (120 mg/l). In view of the overall results obtained for heavy metals contents of the samples from the paint industry's environment, the paint industry effluent did seem to pose serious threat to the environment [25,26].…”

IntroductionIndustrialization is seen as a motor behind many of the processes usually termed "social transformation" and "modernization". Paint industry is one of the industries that cause the water pollution. Wastewater is generated primarily due to cleaning operations of mixers, reactors, blenders, packing machines and floors. Heavy metals have been found to be highly toxic especially when their natural concentrations are exceeded. At normal concentration, they promote the functions of the enzymes but could lead to a lot of adverse metabolic reaction when their concentration rises beyond tolerance limit. The untreated effluents contain a lot of pollutants that are harmful to human beings when they exceed the permissible limits. The Zemilli Paint Factory in Ethiopia produces maximum of 36,000 liters of paint per day and as a result it generates about 500 liters of liquid waste on average per day. This massive quantity of untreated effluent is disposed to the river side and cause considerable load on the water courses leading to widespread damage to aquatic life and to the environment. The problem is more severe in Addis Ababa, where most (More than 40% of large and medium scale manufacturing industries are located. Addis Ababa, like most developing cities, lacks the infrastructure, financial resources, and institutional capacity necessary to effectively manage industrial wastes and adequately control industrial pollution [1]. Paint manufacturing sector in Addis Ababa localized in different part of the sub city, most of them were concentrated in the residential and commercial area such as Nifas silk lafto sub city and Akaki Kality sub city. However, some of them are found in regional state. They have no proper waste discharging mechanism and no modern treatment plant which can handle their effluents waste accordingly. Materials and Methods Study areaThis study was employ on the city of Addis Ababa. Addis Ababa AbstractPaint industry is one of the industries that cause the water pollution by generating Wastewater primarily due to cleaning operations of mixers, reactors, blenders, packing machines and floors. The present research work deals with the study of some of the important physico-chemical and heavy metal parameters of paint industrial waste water effluents which was aimed at the analysis of the untreated effluents from six paint factories in Addis Ababa and the surrounding area. Analysis physico-chemical and heavy metal parameters of selected paint factories samples in Kadisco (KA), Zemilli (ZE), Rainbow (RA), Gastor solar (GA), Nifas silk (NI) and Modern building industry (MBI) were performed to investigate the concentration of status of the parameter. In this study, like; physico-chemical and heavy metal parameters pH, EC, TDS, TSS, COD, Cd, Cr, Pb, and Zn of the nine wastewater samples were analyzed using, Dana multi-meter, Jenway Model 4510 Conductivity/Temp Meter (451 001), Gravimetric, Volumetric, Colorimetric, flame emission photometry, and Atomic Absorption spectrometry (AAS)analyses methods.

“…In addition to the production process, other activities, such as site traffic and mechanical services, can also leach metals into the soil. Jolly et al (2012) measured the metal content in soil and plants in the vicinity of a paint factory and found that the concentrations of heavy metals in the agricultural soil were only slightly higher than those in unpolluted soil. Inobeme et al (2014) also found moderate contamination in a number of soil samples collected from the vicinity of an industrial paint site.…”

Soil samples from the site of the former largest paint and varnish factory in ex-Yugoslavia were analyzed for arsenic and eight heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Zn, Cr, Ni, Cu, Fe, and Hg). Several additional soil properties (pH, sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus, and water content) were also measured. Multivariate analysis showed strong correlations between Pb and Zn; and a moderate correlation between Cu and Ni. There was no correlation between heavy metals and any of the analyzed soil properties parameters. A factor analysis grouped most heavy metals, except Cd, which showed different behavior, and Fe and As, which associated with soil properties. The soil samples were clustered into two distinctive groups. Positive matrix factorization receptor modeling clearly identified Zn and Pb as belonging to the traffic vehicle factor. The second factor dominating arsenic was industrial chemical emissions, while the third factor containing most of the heavy metals was attributed to natural background variation. The last non-metallic factor, dominated by sulfur, was the result of past activities in the paint facility. The average enrichment factor values were for the metals analyzed were: 0.73; 0.71; 2.4; 0.58; 2.3; 0.87; 1.6; and 0.76; for Cr, Cd, Pb, Ni, Zn, Cu, As, and Hg, respectively. Only moderate soil enrichment by Pb and Zn was found. The geoaccumulation index values showed a moderately polluted soil with Pb and Zn, but most contributing to the ecological risk were Cd with 63% and Hg with 19%. These two metals are of major concern in this case study due to their high toxicity, even though they are present at very low concentrations. Generally, a moderate ecological risk was estimated for most soil samples, except for a small number of high-risk samples. Spatial distribution mapped three severely polluted sub-areas. In general, the paint and varnish industry moderately contributes to the contamination of soil. The main ecological risk from metal contamination is not related to the paint technological production process itself, but from other activities at the site that deposit of heavy metals into the soil.
