摘要
为了解惠州市供水水库沉积物重金属(Cr、Cu、Zn、Cd、Pb和Hg)污染状况和垂直分布特征,于2008年5月在惠州市3座具代表性的水库湖泊区采集柱状沉积物样品,运用ICP-MS法检测沉积物中重金属含量,并采用地积累指数法(Igeo)和潜在生态风险指数法(RI)进行污染评价,同时运用主成分分析(PCA)对沉积物中重金属的可能来源进行分析.结果表明:3座水库沉积物重金属含量随沉积深度的变化差异明显,一些重金属含量的垂直变化不明显,而另一些垂直变化明显(降低或升高),但各种重金属在不同水库沉积物中呈现特有的垂直分布特征.根据地积累指数可知,3座水库中沉积物主要以Zn和Pb污染最为严重,达到轻度至强度污染(含量分别为Zn:49.98～640.29mg.kg-1;Pb:21.94～300.66mg.kg-1),同时沉积物中部或底部受到轻度的Cu污染(含量为16.85～45.46mg.kg-1),基本未受Cr、Cd和Hg污染.据6种重金属潜在生态风险系数[Er(i)]及潜在生态风险指数(RI)可知,3座水库沉积物的重金属潜在风险均处于较低水平.据PCA分析和相关资料可知,矿山开采与冶炼、城市化和农林业快速发展等人类活动影响了3座水库沉积物重金属的分布特征和污染.其中,Zn主要来源于矿产开采与冶炼;除矿产开采与冶炼导致沙田水库Pb污染外,机动车尾气排放和生活垃圾等是3座水库沉积物Pb污染的主要途径;Cu污染主要来源于农业和林业污染.
Abstract： To understand the present status of the heavy metal （Cr, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb and Hg） pol- lution of the sediments in water supply reservoirs in Huizhou, sediment cores were sampled from three representative reservoirs. The heavy metal concentrations were analyzed by ICP-MS, and the pollution status was assessed by geo-accumulation index （Iseo） and potential ecological risk index （RI）. In the meantime, the possible sources of the heavy metals were analyzed by the principal component analysis （PCA）. In the sediments of the three reservoirs, the test heavy metals had dif- ferent vertical distribution, some had less change, the others decreased or increased with depth, and the distribution patterns differed with the reservoirs. According to the Igoo, the sediments in the reservoirs were seriously polluted by Zn and Pb （Zn： 49.98-640.29 mg . kg^1; Pb： 21.94- 300. 66 mg .kg^1 ） , reaching slight to high pollution, and the middle or bottom part of the sedi- ments was slightly polluted by Cu （ 16.85-45.46 mg . kg^1 ）. On the whole, the sediments were not polluted by Cr, Cd and Hg. According to the RI and the potential ecological risk coefficient [ Er（i） ] , the sediments in the three reservoirs were under low potential ecological risk. Based on the PCA and relevant information, the human activities such as mining and smelting, urbanization,
