This study evaluated the mutual relationship among arsenic,
iron, manganese, total nitrogen and total organic carbon in the soil of
arsenic affected area, Singair, Bangladesh and the results were compared
with the other arsenic contaminated area in Bangladesh. The present investigation
revealed that high concentration of iron (9138-22071 mg kg-1)
and manganese (22-80 mg kg-1) were accompanied by the high
concentration of arsenic (44-60 mg kg-1) in arsenic polluted
Singair area. In addition, the study showed that the soil of Singair (15-20
m) contained very high concentrations of total organic carbon ranged from
23100-42900 mg kg-1 and the content of total nitrogen was also
very significant in some soil samples, where the concentration of arsenic
was high. Therefore, the research study can conclude that presence of
total organic carbon, total nitrogen, iron and manganese has significant
relationship with arsenic contamination in the soil of Bangladesh. However,
the study found no significant relationship with arsenic and carbon nitrogen
ratio in the soil of Singair. |
