ALAM SEKITAR/Environment This book addresses the level of heavy metals Universiti Putra Malaysia Press of WASTE LEACHATE to
accumulation in Tilapia sp. exposed to municipal solid
waste land ll leachate and the health risk associated
through consumption. It highlights the exposure of
waste leachate to sh and how it leaves a signi cant
impact on human. The uncontrolled production and
discharge of untreated land ll leachate pose
environmental pollution. Leachate from waste
contains hazardous contaminants such as heavy
metals that are passed into the food chain through sh
bioaccumulation and end up in human bodies. Tilapia
is a type of sh that can adapt to a wide range of
pollutants in various water conditions and are
resistant to disease. It has high market demand for its
The Harmful E ects
edible nature and it is also vulnerable to leachate
contamination. Based on the ndings of this research,
the risk of heavy metals accumulation in sh highly
occurred in the gills followed by the muscle (the edible
part that we eat). A probable health risk exists from
