摘要: The effect of degradation caused by ion leachate migration in the soil Gosa dumpsite was investigated with reference to water and from located at Idu Industrial area- Abuja. This done determine health environmental pollution status heavy metals concentration present its inhabitants within settlement. Soil samples collected during dry wet season were pretreated digested using hotplate. metal concentrations determined Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. analyzed for lead (Pb), cupper (Cu), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni) chromium (Cr). Control taken 300m away dumpsite. divided into four cardinal points including centre which analysis. Water three wells test physiochemical properties PH, chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical (BOD), dissolved (DO), Hardness, Conductivity Alkalinity. result showed significant difference these control. found contain amount toxic metals. analytical results indicates that both season, most above World Health Organization (WHO) Standard Nigeria (SON) standards, is a major concern as pose threats human life, agricultural productivity unsafe inhabitants.
