Abstract: In recent years, as China’s industrialization process and urban-rural integration strategy have continued to deepen, some industrial and domestic wastewater has been discharged directly into rivers without effective treatment. This has resulted in the continuous accumulation and enrichment of pollutants in water bodies. This phenomenon results in a significant accumulation of heavy metals in the sediment of water bodies, which not only represents a significant threat to the ecological environment but also ultimately poses a risk to human health. The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive review of the current status of heavy metal pollution in water sediment in China. In addition, this paper analyzes the advantages and limitations of existing techniques for the harmless treatment of heavy metal pollution and forecasts the development direction of this field.
