Estimation of soil pollution with wastewater by measuring the content of heavy elements in some vegetables grown in it
الملخص
Abstract: This research was conducted to estimation of soil pollution with wastewater by measuring heavy metals (Lead, Chromium, Copper, Zinc and Manganese) in Samples of imported vegetables (from Egypt), and the vegetables that we sampled are: cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, zucchini, onions and carrots, collected from the central vegetable market in Tobruk City. The samples prepared by dry-ashing digestion method and the concentrations of heavy metals were determined by using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The results showed a significant increase in the levels of heavy metals that were measured in the samples.
