In fact, when it comes to the heavy metal lead, everyone should be quite familiar with it. It is very common around us. For instance, pencils contain lead. Lead, a heavy metal, is a corrosion-resistant non-ferrous metal material. This article will explore the sources and hazards of lead pollutants in water together with the manufacturers of online water quality monitoring instruments.

What causes the lead content in sewage to exceed the standard seriously?

We know that the heavy metal lead is often used as a material in various industries, such as electroplating, lead glass, matches, pigments, storage batteries, rubber and so on. As a result, the wastewater discharged from factories will contain lead. Once the amount is large, it will cause serious lead pollution. At this point, some methods need to be used to treat lead in water. Some common treatment methods include adsorption, coagulation, sedimentation, etc. Meanwhile, the T8000-PB Lead Online Monitor is utilized to monitor the changes in lead in water in real time.

So, does excessive lead in water pose any harm to the human body?

Some people may ask, while excessive lead can have a certain impact on the ecological environment, does it also pose a threat to human health? Yes! It is a heavy metal element that seriously endangers human health. Once lead enters the human body, 90% of it exists in the bones, and 10% will flow through the blood circulation and then distribute to various tissues, thereby affecting the functions of red blood cells, kidneys, the nervous system, etc. If it is an infant, it is very likely to cause abnormal growth and intellectual development of the infant. What specific symptoms will there be?

1.If the nervous system weakens due to chronic lead poisoning, common manifestations include: memory loss, general weakness, nausea, dizziness, sleep disorders and other symptoms. If classified as polyneuropathy, it can be divided into sensory type, motor type, etc.

· Sensory type is mainly manifested as numbness at the extremities and disorders at the ends of the limbs.

· For sports activities, it is mainly manifested in states such as muscle weakness and muscle paralysis.

· Of course, if it affects the digestive system, the symptoms are manifested as: loss of appetite, discomfort in the upper abdomen, metallic taste in the mouth, dull abdominal pain, constipation, etc.

· It causes problems in the blood system mainly because lead interferes with the synthesis of hemoglobin, thereby leading to anemia.

Under normal circumstances, lead poisoning can be restored to normal after lead removal treatment. In cases where the brain is injured by accident, there are rarely any aftereffects.
