As Pollution Evaluation of Vegetable Planting Soil in Suzhou City

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, As pollution in the vegetable planting soil of Suzhou city was measured, analysed and evaluated by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and enrichment factor method. The results show that: As content in the vegetable planting soil of Suzhou city ranged from 5 to 20mg/kg, with an average of 510.51mg/kg; Form spatial distribution, there were a lot of differences between the different vegetable planting areas; The enrichment factor indexes showed that As content in vegetable planting soil was non-polluting or weak pollution level. however, there are certain risks to the environment quality because of As cumulative trend.
