Estudio ambiental sobre el riesgo ecológico que representa el plomo presente en el suelo / Environmental study on ecological lead risks in soils

Abstract: En el contexto de la Ingeniería Ambiental es bien conocido que el plomo es un metal altamente tóxico que genera problemas graves para la salud humana. La Agencia de Protección Ambiental de los Estados Unidos, indica que una cantidad de 15 µg de plomo por litro, es preocupante, porque puede causar daño en el cerebro y el sistema nervioso.

“…In soils, heavy metals can originate from natural sources such as parent material, pedogenesis, and weathering conditions that maintain an equilibrium in the concentration of these elements, contributing to the biological cycles. On the other hand, the anthropogenic origin of heavy metals in soils can be traced to industrial and agricultural activities (use of fertilizers and/or pesticides), sewage and debris, or mining operations [2].…”
