Investigation of The Effect of an Open Waste Site on Groundwater Contamination
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Science
Abstract
This project work focuses on ascertaining the effect of open waste site on groundwater contamination. In the process, an investigation was carried out at different dumpsites, while soil and water samples were collected at those dumpsites and analyzed at the laboratory. Meanwhile, this necessitated the investigation of the nearness of some hand-dug wells to the area where the dumpsites are situated and the effect on the residents. In conclusion, from the result of the analysis the concentration of all the pararneters analyzed shows that there was a minimal effect. But if the result of our own assessment does not guarantee a continuous minimal effect in the future except there is further assessment on the sites.
