Abstract

This research aimed at investigating the intensity of the mineral pollution of Shirood RIVER located in the west of Mazandaran Province (7 Kilometers from Tonekabon) through environmental geochemical studies and by compiling POLLUTION INTENSITY indexes for the maintenance of sustainable development. To this end, seven sediment samples were collected from different parts of the RIVER and the total concentration of such elements as copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), plumb (Pb), vanadium (V), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn), and iron (Fe) was measured by atomic absorption. To estimate the POLLUTION INTENSITY in the mentioned RIVER, the researchers used the GEOCHEMICAL INDEX (Igeo) and the ENRICHMENT FACTOR (EF), compared the two indexes, quantified the EF index, and equated it with Igeo.The results of the study show that the POLLUTION INTENSITY of the mentioned elements in two stations– mouth of the RIVER and Soleiman Abad (up RIVER)– are as follows: the amounts of Iron and manganese are normal, which indicates too weak an absorption (without pollution) in the environment; vanadium and nickel are in the weak absorption class (without pollution to very slight pollution); elements such as copper, zinc, and plumb are in the medium absorption class (very slight pollution to slight pollution) and intensive absorption class (much pollution to severe pollution). Therefore, the results of the study also show that by combining the above-mentioned indexes, it is possible to develop a sustainable development index for the recognition of environmental pollutions.
