Özet
Heavy metal accumulation is observed in urban soils, sometimes due to
anthropological effects and sometimes due to natural geological units.
In order to determine the heavy metal content of the Upper MioceneLower Pliocene Selmo Formation, which is observed in the whole study
area and consists of conglomerate, sandstone and silt stone, soil and
river sediment samples were taken. Within the scope of pollution
assessment, geo-accumulation index (Igeo), enrichment factor (EF)
and pollution index (PI) calculations of Batman urban soil samples
were made and different degrees of pollution values were determined.
High pollution values were obtained for As, Mo and Sb elements in all
pollution indices calculated. The pollution levels of the three elements
were determined as strongly to extremely contaminated according to
Igeo values, the others except As (very severe enrichment) according to
EF values were determined as severe enrichment, and according to PI,
all three were determined as strong polluted. Pollution and element
distribution maps were created with a geographical information system software. According to the results of correlation analysis and
cluster analysis, the elements found to be contaminated are divided
into two groups, whose locations and sources of contamination are
different. The first group (Sn, Zn and Pb) is observed in the approximate
centre of the study area and developed due to traffic emissions. The
elements belonging to the second group (especially As, Mo and Sb)
show high pollution values in the south-southeast of the study area.
These pollutions are thought to be caused by the inadequate storage
of mineral oils and batteries that are changed in the industrial site and
from leaks in the oil production, storage, refining and transmission
phase in TPAO, TÜPRAŞ and BOTAŞ. The analysed samples were compared with the Soil Pollution Control Regulation and WHO standards,
and Co, Ni and As element values were found to exceed the permissible
values for health
