[Source Analysis, Spatial Distribution and Pollution Assessment of Heavy Metals in Sewage Irrigation Area Farmland Soils of Longkou City].

Farmland soils in sewage irrigation area at Longkou City were collected, soil pH together with the heavy metal content were tested. Taking 70 soil points as the study object, this paper investigated the source of heavy metals in this area based on the correlation analysis and PCA of multivariate statistical analysis theory. We studied the spatial variation and distribution characteristics about heavy metals using both the theory of geostatistics and GIS spatial interpolation method. At last, the heavy metal pollution was evaluated in the way of Nemerow Index and improved fuzzy evaluation method. It turned out that, 9 kinds of heavy metal elements in the soil of research area had a certain degree of enrichment, among them the average of Cd was 3.06 times as high as the background value, and its enrichment was most severe. The result of Nemerow Index showed that, the values of comprehensive pollution index of Cu, Cd and Pb respectively were 7.06, 6.10 and 5.54, and they all belonged to high levels of pollution. According to the results of correlation analysis and principal component analysis, Cu, Zn together with Pb, Cd were mainly affected by human factors, sewage irrigation was their common pollution factor, the pollution sources for the first two heavy metals included excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agricultural production and the accumulation of long time, whereas pollution from northern coal mining and coal gangue piled up as well as plating, machinery manufacturing and other industrial pollution were the pollution sources of the latter two elements. Other elements (Co, Cr, Mn, Ni and As) were mainly influenced by natural factors such as parent material. Comprehensive evaluation results showed that, among the 70 points, 13 points had moderate pollution,23 points belonged to light pollution, 28 points were at alert level, 6 points were in the safe range. From the perspective of spatial distribution,high value areas of heavy metal contents were mainly concentrated in towns of Zhuyouguan and Xufu. This showed that, sewage irrigation caused a certain degree of heavy metal pollution to local soil.
