Abstract:
:Solid waste from the Tripoli Sewage Treatment Plant is being used for manuring various crops in Al-Hadba production project. To monitor concentrations of several heavy elements, essential and nonessential to plants that are potentially hazardous to animal and human healthy by entering food chain via soil-plant system, samples of solid waste were collected monthly (every four weeks) during the years 1980-1981. These samples were appropriately handled and analized for total -N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Na, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Ni, Co, and Pb.The sludge samples were found to contain an average of 2.00-2.22-0.31% when expressed as a mixed fertilizer (N-P2O5-K2O) respectively. Concentrations of Zn, Pb, Ni, and Cd were greater than their critical levels of 1500, 550, 150, and 15 ppm in 54, 58, 8, and 29% of the samples respectively. The concentrations of Cu and Cr were less than their critical levels of 750 and 500 ppm in all samples respectively.
