ASSESSMENT OF HEAVY METAL POLLUTION IMPACT ON SOIL CONDITIONS OF AKTOBE CITY
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article presents the results of a study on soil contamination levels in several districts of Aktobe – Kurmysh, Moscow, AFP (Aktobe Ferroalloy Plant), Aviakalashyk, and the 41st siding – by heavy metals such as zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and copper (Cu). The coefficients of anthropogenic concentration (Kc) and total pollution (Zc) were calculated. Soil samples from various areas were analyzed using atomic absorption spectrometry. In certain districts, particularly Kurmysh and Moscow, zinc and cadmium concentrations were found to exceed the maximum permissible concentrations (MPC). However, the total pollution index across all areas remained below Zc < 16, indicating a low overall level of contamination. The study highlights the need to implement measures aimed at reducing the toxic load on soils and restoring ecological balance.
