Abstract:

Heavy metal pollution of ground water is an extremely serious environmental problem and a costly one to remediate. In this study the Aries river water quality affected by anthropogenic factors was investigated. Usually the Aries is contaminated in two ways: by accidents, when a huge quantity of pollutants flows from tailing ponds in tributary rivulets of Aries and by anthropogenic inputs of metals and various chemical substances. The results of the analyzed parameters (total and dissolved Cu, Pb and Zn, pH, suspended solids, total dissolved solids, chemical oxygen demand and dissolved oxygen) showed that the water of Aries river is polluted mostly with Cu and Zn due to mining activities in Aries hydrographic basin.


Keywords: water quality, heavy metals, pollution, Aries hydrographic basin
