“…The presence of heavy metals in excess amounts interferes with the beneficial uses of water because of the toxicity of heavy metals and the biomagnification effect brought on by its accumulation on ecology (Chang et al 2006;Altas 2009). During recent times, heavy metals were focus of attention owing to their hazardous nature and subsequent toxicity studies.…”

This research work is focusing on the toxicities of heavy metals of industrial origin to anaerobic digestion of the industrial wastewater. Photobacterium phosphoreum T3S was used as an indicator organism. The acute toxicities of heavy metals on P. phosphoreum T3S were assessed during 15-min half inhibitory concentration (IC50) as indicator at pH 5.5-6. Toxicity assays involved the assessment of multicomponent mixtures using TU and MTI approaches. The results of individual toxicity indicated that the toxicity of Cd, Cu and Pb on P. phosphoreum increased with increasing concentrations and there was a linear correlation. The 15-min IC 50 values of Cd, Cu and Pb were 0.537, 1.905 and 1.231 mg/L, respectively, and their toxic order was Cd [ Pb [ Cu. The combined effects of Cd, Cu and Pb were assayed by equivalent concentration mixing method. The results showed that the combined effects of Cd ? Cu, Cd ? Pb, Cu ? Pb, Cd ? Cu ? Pb were antagonistic, antagonistic and partly additive. The combined effect of three heavy metals was partly additive.

“…In recent times, attention has been paid to developing methods for the removal of metals from industrial wastewaters because heavy metals create serious environmental problems and are dangerous to human health [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The presence of heavy metals in excess amounts interferes with the beneficial uses of water because of the toxicity of heavy metals and the biomagnification effect brought on by its accumulation on ecology [10][11][12].…”
