GEOCHEMICAL ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY ON THE SOILS OF INOFYTA AREA, BIOTIA DISTRICT.
Abstract
In the present study we examine the concentrations and the distribution of the heavy metals Pb, Zn, Cr and Ni in the soils of the Inotyta arean and the subsequent levels of the metal pollution. The concentrations of the heavy metals Pb, Zn, Cr and Ni are generally lower than the suggested upper safety limits for cultivated soils. The pollution caused by the high concentrations of Pb and Zn in certain places is probably due to the heavy traffic of the nearby national road and to the various factories, which exist in the surrounding area and belong to the industrialised zone of Inotyta
