Abstract

During estuarine mixing, dissolved METALS come into the particulate phase due to the flocculation processes. Such processes are biologically vital. In the present study, controlling mechanisms of elemental flocculation during estuarine mixing in northern and southern estuaries of Iran in relation to the various physical and chemical parameters of waters have been compared. Except for zinc and lead, for other studied elements in Minab RIVER, water flocculate at higher rates in comparison with the RIVERs flowing into the Caspian Sea. Redox potential might have negative effect on flocculation process in Minab Estuary. Contrary to RIVERs flowing into the Caspian Sea, in Minab RIVER elemental flocculation is governed by dissolved organic carbon and it shows a non-liner and conservative behavior during estuarine mixing which implies that dissolved organic carbon originates from terrigenous source. The results also shows that maximum REMOVAL of elements occurs in lower salinities (1.5 to 5.8‰) for the RIVERs in North of Iran and 3.3 to 11.4‰ for Minab RIVER in South of Iran. Flocculation of studied metal in different RIVERs results in reduction of overall metal pollution load by various percentages. The initial metal contents on RIVER water and mean discharge of RIVER might lead to higher flocculation rates.
