Waters and sediments of Subin River, which flows through the industrial and commercial areas of Kumasi in the Ashanti region
of Ghana, were geochemically investigated to ascertain heavy metal pollution levels due to anthropogenic activities. The study
shows preoccupying pollution levels that constitute a threat to public and ecological systems. The waters of Subin River are
neutral to slightly basic, inferred from pH values of 6.89–7.65). Electric conductivity (EC) of the waters ranges from 822
to 1,821 μs/cm and the range of total dissolved solids (TDS) is from 409 to 913 mg/l. Toxic elements contents of sediments
and waters from 10 sites along the river were analysed by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA), and Al, As, Cd,
Cr, Cu and Zn were determined. The concentrations of Al, As, Cd, Cr, Cu and Zn in the waters range between 4.02–15.18, 0.007–0.16,
0.002–0.05, 0.001–0.019, 1.32–7.04 and 4.28–10.2 mg/l, respectively. The contamination factors (CF) computed for the elements
indicate that with the exception of sampling site S10, the sediments are polluted with Cd. Chromium contamination in the sediments
is observed at S6 and S7, where the CF values were 1.39 and 1.52, respectively. The pollution load indices (PLI) were low
(<1) and ranged from 0.14 to 0.75, suggesting that the overall sediment column of the river is not polluted. 相似文献
