| dc.description.abstract | The pollution resulting from heavy metal elements and their toxic effects, especially lead, which is highly toxic. Whereas high concentrations of heavy metals have become a health concern ,which are transmitted from polluted sources to groundwater sources and crops, as well as to humans and animals.Therefore, the focus of our study was towards estimating the concentration of lead in soil contaminated with sewage water.Where 60 soil samples were collected from different depths,(1-10 cm) for shorter deep and (30- 40 cm ) samples for longer deep. The present descriptive analytical study was carried out in Al-Khums city. PH, and EC were measured and the lead concentrations were determined using an Atomic Absorp Spectrophotometry (AAS) method. The 60sample points were obtained with the lowest concentration at 29ppm and the highest concentration obtained at results 7430ppm.Despite that, two samples that did not contain Analyses of Lead showed that there was a considerable contamination insoil. | en_US |
