Abstract

Bu çalışmada, insan ve çevre sağlığı için zararlı ve toksik olabilen ağır metallerden biri olan niyobyum (Nb) kirliliğindeki değişimin izlenmesi ve Robinia pseudoacacia ve Cedrus atlantica'nın kirliliğin azaltılmasında kullanılabilirliğinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında 2021 Dünya Hava Kirliliği raporuna göre Avrupa'da havası en kirli 5 şehir arasında yer alan Düzce ilinde benzer yetişme koşullarında yetişen Robinia pseudoacacia ve Cedrus atlantica'nın ana gövdesinden örnekler alınarak Nb konsantrasyonları belirlendi. Çalışma sonucunda Cedrus atlantica'nın Nb konsantrasyonundaki değişimi izlemek için uygun olduğu, Robinia pseudoacacia'nın ise Nb kirliliğini azaltmak için uygun olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Usage of Robinia pseudoacacia and Cedrus atlantica in Monitoring and Reduction of Change of Niobium Pollution in Air

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to monitor the change in niobium (Nb) pollution, one of the heavy metals that can be harmful and toxic for human and environmental health, and to determine the usability of Robinia pseudoacacia and Cedrus atlantica species, which were determined to be biomonitors, in reducing Nb pollution.Within the scope of the study, samples were taken from the main stem of Robinia pseudoacacia and Cedrus atlantica, which grow under similar growing conditions in Düzce province, which is among the 5 most polluted cities in Europe according to the 2021 World Air Pollution report, and Nb concentrations were determined. As a result of the study, it was determined that Cedrus atlantica is suitable for monitoring the change in Nb concentration and Robinia pseudoacacia is suitable for reducing Nb pollution.
