摘要：
In the present study, the spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of heavy metals (Cd, Hg, As, Pb, Cr, Cu, Ni, and Zn) in soil around 19 centralized drinking water sources in Wuhan were investigated. Single-factor and comprehensive pollution indexes were used to determine soil pollution levels. The potential ecological hazard index was employed to evaluate soil potential ecological risks. The correlation and cluster analysis were conducted to identify pollution sources. The results showed that higher concentrations of heavy metals were present in soil from centralized drinking water source located in core area than suburb area of Wuhan. The concentrations of heavy metals in soil from centralized drinking water sources near the Yangtze River were higher than that in the sites near the tributaries of the Yangtze River. The average single potential ecological risk index of Hg, As, Pb, Cr, Cu, Ni, and Zn were lower than 40, which suggests a slight potential ecological risk. The average single potential ecological risk index of Cd was 80-160, which indicates a high potential ecological risk. The average comprehensive potential ecological risk index of heavy metals in soil around centralized drinking water sources in Wuhan was 142.12, which corresponded to a slight potential ecological risk. The correlation analysis showed that the sources of Cu, Pb, and Cr were similar and came from transport. The sources of Ni, As, Cr, and Cu were similar and could be attributed to metallurgical industries. The sources of Zn, Hg, and Cr were similar and could be related to antiseptic and catalytic industries. The long-term monitoring of Wuhan Dijiao and Baishazhou waterworks indicated that the concentrations of heavy metals around centralized drinking water sources in Wuhan were markedly decreased after 2017 and that ecological risk may be further reduced in the future. © 2021, Science Press.
