Inorganic Pollutants

Substances without carbon which are pollutants, such as heavy metals

Real World Example

Imagine trying to clean up a mess in your kitchen after accidentally spilling a bag of small, non-dissolving plastic beads everywhere. Just like those persistent beads that don't break down and continue to clutter your kitchen, inorganic pollutants such as heavy metals linger in the environment without decomposing, causing long-term contamination. Both scenarios involve substances that are difficult to remove and continue to pose a problem because they don't naturally degrade or dissolve, emphasizing the persistent nature and challenge of dealing with inorganic pollutants.
