Assessment of Urban Soil Pollution by Heavy Metals (Russian Federation, Republic of Bashkortostan)
Introduction. This chapter presents the results of a study of the quality of soil cover in cities located on the territory of the mining districts of the Trans-Urals of the Republic of BashkortostanTrans-Urals of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The object of the study was the soils of the lands of various purposes of the cities of Uchaly, Sibay and Baymak. During the study of the soils of industrial zones, samples were selected adjacent to the dumps and tailings dumps of mining production, at a distance of up to 500 m. The recreational zone included the territories of parks, all residential neighborhoods where the city’s population lives were included in the residential zone. The territories of collective gardens located near pollution sources were also studied. Material and methods. The total content of heavy metalsHeavy metals was determined by atomic absorption method. To assess the degree of soil pollution, the values of the maximum permissible concentrations and the regional geochemical background generally accepted in ecology were used. To assess the degree of soil contamination, the total Zc index was calculated according to the formula of Yu. E. Saet. Results. As a result of studies, in all studied soil samples, an excess of maximum permissible concentration (MPC) in total forms was revealed in terms of Cu, Zn, in some cases Mn, Cd, Co. The soils of industrial territories are the most polluted. According to the general indicator Zc, calculated by the total content of heavy metalsHeavy metals, urban soils of all types of land have an acceptable category of pollution. Conclusion. The level of polyelement pollution of the soil cover of urbanized areas in the conditions of the mining region depends on the intended purpose of urban lands. Soils of industrial zones, which are located close to industrial enterprises, are subject to the greatest pollution. In all the studied cities, the lack of sanitary protection zones of enterprises led to the development of residential buildings. In these residential microdistricts, there are household plots where the population grows vegetables and fruit and berry crops.
