Heavy Metal Concentrations

Abstract Heavy metal accumulation in vegetable tissues often poses a great risk for human health. In the present study, accumulation of heavy metal in green leafy vegetable crops of coriander, garden cress, lettuce and spinach were evaluated under waste water irrigation in fields located in Kahrizak, on the southern edge of the metropolitan city of Tehran, Iran. Atomic absorption spectrophotometery was used for determination of heavy metal concentrations in leaf tissue. The results showed that heavy metal concentrations in soil and irrigation water were significantly high than allowable levels. Analysis of plant leaf tissue showed that spinach and garden cress accumulated higher concentrations of heavy metals compared to coriander and lettuce plants. Central leaves of lettuce showed the lowest heavy metal concentration compared to outer leaves or leaves of other vegetable crops, and can be the safer product for fresh consumption. The results indicate that the vegetables produced in the region are not suitable for fresh consumption and the agricultural activities should change towards ornamental or industrial crops production.

Abstract Water quality parameters were measured in Acı Lake. The measurements were carried out in water samples taken from five different stations over ten months. According to the results of the analyses done on the samples of water, without taking into consideration the differences of seasons and stations, the average annual values of heavy metal concentrations for Cr, Cu and Ni were found to be 0.10 mg/l, 0.11 mg/l and 0.19 mg/l dry weight, respectively. Surprisingly, Co and Cd metals were not detected at any station or at any season. Other water quality parameters, namely pH, turbidity and nitrate, fall in the intermediate value range for these measures. The comparisons of the measured parameters and the metal concentration with the water quality index show that the water quality of Acı Lake prevents the water being used as irrigation water due to high salt levels.

Kegiatan industri di Perairan Muara Sungai Tiram, Marunda, Jakarta Utara, akan berdampak terhadap konsentrasi logam berat di Perairan. Sedimen merupakan tempat akumulasinya logam tersebut dan pada suatu saat akan dapat menjadi sumber bagi kolom perairan diatasnya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui konsentrasi logam berat pada sedimen dasar dan mengetahui korelasinya terhadap ukuran butir serta dan bahan organik. Analisa logam berat diawali dengan proses destruksi menggunakan aquaregia dan supernatannya di baca nilai absorbasninya menggunakan Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Untuk melihat hubungan parameter logam berat terhadap ukuran butir dan bahan organik, menngunakan analisis korelasi Pearson. Berdasarkan penelitian tersebut diperoleh nilai konsentrasi logam berat dengan kisaran 20,19–55,68 ppm. Konsentrasi logam berat memiliki korelasi positif terhadap fraksi silt dan clay.  Distribusi logam berat di lokasi penelitian berasosiasi kuat terhadap fraksi ukuran butir halus dan bahan organik, melalui proses adsorpsi. The waters of the Muara Sungai Tiram, Marunda, North Jakarta, are areas that are surrounded by very dense industrial activities. The existence of these activities has an impact on the concentration of heavy metals in basic sediments in these waters. The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration of heavy metals in basic sediments and determine the correlation between the concentration of heavy metals with grain size on the base sediment in the liquid and the correlation between the concentration of heavy metals with organic matter. Analysis of heavy metal concentrations was carried out using the acid destruction method, then the concentration was read using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS), and processed into a heavy metal concentration map using Arcgis 10.3. Based on these studies the value of heavy metal concentrations obtained in the range of 20.19 - 55.681 ppm. Heavy metal concentrations have a positive correlation with the mud and organic matter fractions with r values of 0.68 and 0.10, respectively. The distribution of heavy metals in this study is strongly associated with the fine grain size fraction and organic matter, through the adsorption process
