【 摘 要 】

As. The average concentrations of Cr, Cd, As, Zn, Cu and Pb in the soil samples are 36.7μg/g, 0.15μg/g, 0.10μg/g, 24.8μg/g, 4.47μg/g and 2.44μg/g respectively. The corresponding contamination factors for these heavy metals are found to be 0.52, 0.76, 0.01, 0.19, 0.13 and 0.15 for Cr, Cd, As, Zn, Cu and Pb respectively. The contamination factors for all the heavy metals are found to be below 1, which suggests that the soil in the area has mild contamination of heavy metals. Pollution load index of the area has been found to be 0.166, which again suggests a Low level of deterioration of the study area due to heavy metals.
