What is Trace Metals in Soil Near Cement Factory about?
The study investigates trace metal concentrations in soil and plants around a cement factory in Pretoria, South Africa, revealing moderate pollution levels with significant differences in metal concentrations based on sampling direction. The results indicate that certain plants, particularly Panicum maximum and Lantana camara, bio-accumulate trace metals, exceeding safe limits for consumption. The pollution source is attributed not only to the cement factory but also to vehicular emissions.
