| Abstract | ||
| Dust samples were taken from uncontaminated surfaces including closets, fans, and office shelves to identify the source of heavy metals in household dust. The Greater Cairo Environmental Monitoring Program's measurements of the sources of heavy metals in dry and wet air sediments were the primary topic of discussion. Dust from previously contaminated soil and air pollutants from factories in Greater Cairo are two potential culprits. Samples of household dust from the polluted area were examined. Cadmium and lead concentrations in household dust in the affected area were estimated to be expected. | ||
