Important information :

Groundwater contamination by arsenic is often due to natural high concentrations of arsenic at deeper groundwater levels. Arsenic contamination in the Ganges Delta caused severe poisoning in a huge population of humans. A 2007 study found that over 137 million people in more than 70 countries are most likely affected by poisoning of drinking water. The problem became more widely known after the massive poisoning of water in Bangladesh. Groundwater contamination with arsenic is a problem that many countries are facing, including the USA.

About 20 serious cases of bluetongue in groundwater have been reported. Of these, four serious incidents occurred in Asia, Thailand, Taiwan and Mainland China. China has indeed mapped areas infected with arsenic.

Arsenic reaches the human in the following ways:

• Mining: Arsenic is naturally in the rocks. There is almost in all sulphurous copper, lead and zinc minerals and accompanies these minerals in mining operations.
• Volcanic actions.
• Destruction of natural matter.
• Combustion of coal and oil by humans.
• Fertilizers and pesticides.

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Union have set a limit of 10 μg / l (micrograms per liter). In several areas of Axios, Chalkidiki, Larissa, Evia, Korinthia and others, arsenic has been detected in drinking water.
