HEAVY METALS POLLUTION AT MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE DUMPSITES IN KANO AND KADUNA STATES IN NIGERIA

~ 0c7cc68029cb388d525c674b148a7959.200x200
Soil samples collected from two major dumpsites each in Kano and Kaduna states were investigated for heavy metals pollution. Each of the dumpsite was divided into north, south, east and west. Four soil samples were collected at a depth of 0-15 cm from each part and pooled to form a composite sample. Soil samples from reserve areas within the same geographical locations as the dumpsites were...
