Study on the Soil Chemical Pollution in the Area of the Residual Bauxite Lake "Mineri" – Tulcea

Abstract

The paper presents a study on the impact of chemical pollution of the soil, from residual bauxite lake, from "Mineri", in the areal of Tulcea. Soil samples were taken from the lake, and from the immediate area of the lake, where there are agricultural crops. We analyzed the samples in order to determine the chemical elements and pH of the soil, and the bioremediation methods that could be applied to diminish the effects of chemical soil pollution.
