تأثير المخلفات الصناعية لبعض المنشآت في محافظة واسط في تلوث النباتات المجاورة بالعناصر الثقيلة

Abstract EN

The status of pollution was Studied in the surrounding soils and plants of four industrial facilities located in Wasit Governorate, its the Al-Zubidiya Power plant, the Licorice factory in Al-Azizia, The Textile factory in Koat and the Brick factories in the Alhay district, to find out the effect of emissions resulting from the frequency of incomplete burning of fuel and wastewater from them to Tigris river and effect on soil and plants in the surrounding areas of some heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cu, Cr, Fe, Mn, Co, Ni, V, Zn) and the evaluation of the status of pollution according to some of the adopted global standards for concentration of heavy metals for plants and transfer pollutant element from soil to plant in region.

Soil and plant samples that contaminated probable were taken from 0-500 m from the pollution source for shoot and root with three replicate.

Samples of control were taken from 1-2 Km before the same sources and three replicate for Licorice and the Textile factories and 3-4 Km for power plant and Brick factories, generally The results indicated a high concentrations of heavy metals in plants near the sources of pollution compared with relatively remote plants from these sources, the concentrations of the V, Ni, Cr in the plants within the excessive and toxic concentrations and Cd, Pb, Co within the tolerance concentration and the elements Mn, Zn, Cu within the normal and sufficient range of plants, when adopting a BCF and BAC indicator of studied plants show that Cd, Zn are the most transfer elements from the soil to plant compared to the other elements
