dc.description.abstract | A recreational river may be exposed to some extent of metal pollution. Two rivers, namely Sungai Weh and Sungai Jempul, were selected for this study, as both areas offer recreational activities for residents in Jengka, Pahang, Malaysia. This study examines the concentration of selected metals (Fe, Mn, and Pb), elucidates the possible sources, evaluates the toxicity loads, and estimates the potential health risk. Metal concentrations were analysed using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The concentrations were found in the sequence of Fe > Pb > Mn. Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) suggested that the metals’ origins included both anthropogenic activities and natural sources. About 16.66% of Pb should be removed from the river water to ensure safety, based on the heavy metal toxicity load calculation (HMTL). Children are more vulnerable to non-cancer and cancer risks than adults. The findings indicate that comprehensive monitoring of water quality parameters and thorough exposure assessment should be performed. | en_US |
