Implications of Asphalt Plant Discharge Water on Agromorphological Parameters and Photosynthetic Processes of Edible VegetablesBy Akpovbovbo D. P, Duru C.M, Abara P.N, Ukaoma A. A, Nwachukwu M.O, Engeronu U.U, Obi U.D, Ude P.C
Abstract: Untreated industrial waste discharges emitted into the environment have a negative impact on all components of the ecosystem, especially the soil properties. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of heavy metal concentrations present in asphalt plant discharges on the soil properties, photosynthetic activities and agromorphology of the vegetable plants. Soil samples used for the experiment were collected from Federal University of Technology Owerri Botanical Garden. The …
