Avaliação de indicadores de poluição de solos e águas e suas implicações no sistema de abastecimento público de Juazeiro do Norte - CE

Abstract

This study evaluates the indicators of soil and water and its implications for the public supply of Juazeiro system pollution from interactions between aquifers and soils that makes up part of the drainage area of the stream of the Apes. For this, a characterization of the soils of the area as the physical, chemical and biological aspects was conducted through qualitative indicators of total organic carbon, total nitrogen, basal respiration and C / N ratio. Surface waters were also characterized in terms of COD and BOD parameters and groundwater for the parameters of Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate and chloride. The data obtained in the characterization of the soils of the study area were analyzed using multivariate statistical methods Principal Component Analysis and Cluster Analysis Hierarchical Agglomerative; and those obtained in the characterization of surface water were contrasted with the framework set out by the CONAMA Resolution No. 357 for classes of freshwaters. Data from qualitative monitoring of groundwater, provided by CAGECE, were analyzed regarding the classification according to the predominant uses, by Resolution No. 396 of CONAMA and how to meet potability standards, by Ordinance No. 9214 MS. It was found that the soils of the drainage area of ​​the stream of the Apes are degraded by human interference in the area, standing surface water polluted by sewage to the fullest extent analyzed, not fitting into any of the classes of freshwater, based the parameters analyzed. Of groundwater supply wells included in the study area meet the required legal standards, but already show signs of pollution by domestic sewage.
