  Abstract:  VIEW PDF: ASSESSMENT OF SOIL POLLUTION WITH WASTE IN CHISINAU URBAN ECOSYSTEM

The degree of land pollution within Chisinau Urban Ecosystem refers to the second level, and namely low polluted. One of the most polluted areas in the Chisinau urban ecosystem (CUE) is the Biological Wastewater Treatment Plant (BTP) and the adjacent lands: the village Bic and the agricultural land in the vicinity of BTP. The high content of heavy metals (HM) in the soil of BTP territory and the adjacent sectors is explained by the accumulation of large amounts of mud at the BTP, containing essential quantities of HM and the utilization of this mud as fertilizer for growing crops. Assessment of BTP sector pollution demonstrated that the summary index of pollution (Zc) is of 27.43, which confirms that the land is moderately polluted. The value of this index characterizes the sector as one with a high level of population morbidity.

Key words: mud, level of pollution, industrial sites, summary index of pollution, urbus soil.
