Bioaccumulation of heavy metals in fish tissues of a freshwater lake of Bhopal.

abstract：:Presence of copper within water bodies deteriorates human health and degrades natural environment. This heavy metal in water is treated using a promising biochar derived from rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum) peel through slow pyrolysis. This research compares the efficacies of artificial neural network (ANN), adaptive n...
