ABSTRACT
To understand the heavy metal pollution status of Dongjiang Lake, the contents and species of heavy metals in the surface sediments were investigated during September 2021, and the heavy metal pollution level and potential ecological risk were evaluated. The results showed that Cd, Pb, As, Cu, Zn, Ni, and Cr contents were in the range of 0.40-34.1, 14.8-1688, 6.99-1155, 6.89-280, 26.2-1739, 6.29-55.4, and 23.3-44.8 mg·kg-1, respectively, with extremely uneven spatial distributions. The highest contents of Cd, Pb, As, Zn, Cu, and Ni were found in the site adjacent to Yaogangxian tungsten ore. The proportion of metal species with bioavailability was high, in which Cd in acid-soluble species was 46.7%-71.5% and Pb in reducible species was 46.8%-67.0%. The bioavailable species of Cu, Zn, Ni, and Cr were 35%-68%, 42%-72%, 26%-51%, and 6%-30%, respectively, although they primarily existed in residual species. According to the geo-accumulation index (Igeo), there was a moderate or extreme pollution status of Cd in all sites, moderate or extreme pollution status of Pb in 90% of sites, and moderate pollution status of As, Cu, and Zn in 30% of sites. The ecological risk factor (Eri) of Cd showed high potential ecological risk in all sites with significantly high potential ecological risk in 80% of sites. Moreover, As and Pb had significantly high potential ecological risk, and Cu had moderate potential ecological risk in S7, which was adjacent to Yaogangxian tungsten ore. There was a high total potential ecological risk in all sites and significantly high potential ecological risk in 50% of sites. Therefore, the surface sediments of Dongjiang Lake were under the combined pollution of Cd, Pb, As, Zn, and Cu with high bioavailability and high total potential ecological risk.
