Abstract
Oil
spill occurs every day worldwide and oil contamination is a significant
contributor for the higher levels of heavy metals in the environment. This
study is purposely to summarize the heavy metals which significant to major oil
spill incidents around the world and effects of toxic metals to human health.
The study performed a comprehensive review of relevant scientific journal
articles and government documents concerning heavy metals contamination and oil
spills. Overall, the heavy metals most frequently been detected in oil spill
related study where Pb>Ni>V>Zn>Cd and caused many effects to human
health especially cancer. In
conclusion, the comparison of heavy metal level between the post - spill and
baseline levels must be done, and implementation of continuous monitoring of
heavy metal. In addition, the result based on the strategies must be transparent to
public in order to maintaining human health.
Keywords: oil spill, heavy metal, human health, contaminants,
water quality
Abstrak
Kejadian
tumpahan minyak berlaku setiap hari di seluruh dunia dan menjadi penyumbang
yang signifikan terhadap tahap logam berat yang tinggi dalam persekitaran.
Kajian ini bertujuan merumuskan spesies logam berat yang signifikan dengan
kejadian tumpahan minyak utama di seluruh dunia dan kesan logam berbahaya ini
terhadap kesihatan manusia. Kajian ini dijalankan dengan membuat ulasan yang
menyeluruh melalui jurnal saintifik berkaitan dan dokumen rasmi kerajaan
berkenaan pencemaran logam berat dan tumpahan minyak. Keseluruhannya,logam
berat yang paling banyak dikesan adalah Pb>Ni>V>Zn>Cd dan
menyebabkan banyak kesan kepada manusia terutamanya penyakit kanser. Secara
konklusinya, perbandingan tahap logam berat selepas tumpahan minyak dengan
tahap asal perlu dilakukan beserta pemantauan berterusan. Selain itu, keputusan
daripada strategi di atas perlulah mudah diakses kepada orang awam dalam usaha
mengekalkan kesihatan orang ramai.
Kata kunci: tumpahan minyak, logam berat, kesihatan
manusia, bahan pencemar, kualiti air
