An assessment of atmospheric deposition of metals and the physico -chemical parameters of a rainwater harvesting system in Rio de Janeiro Brazil, by means of statistical multivariate analysis

Abstract: This study evaluates the rainwater harvesting system to determine the chemical quality of the water and allocate it for use. Samples were collected in the city of Rio de Janeiro at the points of Direct Precipitation (DP), First Flush (FF) and Reservoir (RR). The methodology involved carrying out an analysis of Ca, Cd, Cu, Na, Ni, Fe, K, Mg, Pb, Zn, conductivity, turbidity, pH and chloride. The R language was used for the principal component analysis, Pearson coefficient correlation, hierarchical cluster analys… Show more

“…Because of the intensive use of ethanol/gasoline fuel in Brazil, rainwater composition shows different constitution in comparison with other countries. Therefore, quantifying rainwater chemical composition can contribute to know how human activities have influenced the hydrological cycle (da Silva et al, 2020).…”
