Spatial distribution of iron and aluminum in pore water and bottom sludge of the meromictic acid lake no 54, Łuk Mużakowski, Poland

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 11

Abstract

The spatial distribution of iron and aluminum in bottom sludge and pore water of the meromictic acid pit lake no 54 situated in Łuk Mużakowski, Poland were examined. Samples were taken three times from two places located within the meromictic zone and one out of it. Chemical composition of pore water and sludge in vertical profiles were analysed. Two patterns of the distribution of elements between solid and liquid parts depending on the sampling location were found. Samples taken outside meromictic zone had comparable high concentration of iron in the sludge associated with its low amounts in pore water - and on the contrary: low concentration of alum in sludge associated with its high amount in pore water. Samples from the meromictic zone characterized reversed relations.<br/><br/>
