Sorgun Hoşumlu Göleti Su Kalitesinin İyonik ve Ağır Metal İçeriği Açısından Analizi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada gölet suyunun kalitesi 10 fizikokimyasal parametre ve 7 ağır metal üzerinden değerlendirilmiş, sonuçlar SWQR (2016) ve WHO (2021) standartları doğrultusunda tartışılmıştır. Ölçülen parametreler genel olarak ulusal ve uluslararası standartlarla uyumlu bulunmuş, ağır metaller arasında yalnızca bakır (Cu) ortalama 7,64 µg/L değeri ile SWQR (2016) sınırını aşmasına karşın WHO (2021) kriterleriyle uyumlu bulunmuştur. Sulama suyu indeksleri SAR (1,80) ve %Na (31,19) değerleri bakımından suyun kullanılabilir olduğunu göstermiş, PI (51,43) orta kaliteyi işaret etmiş, MH (62,33) ise sulama açısından yüksek magnezyum tehlikesi ortaya koymuştur. Ağır metal kirliliği indeksleri HPI (10,70) ve HEI (0,39) gölet suyunun ağır metal kirliliği bakımından düşük risk taşıdığını ortaya koymuştur. Piper diyagramı sonuçlarına göre suyun Ca⁺²–Mg⁺²–HCO₃⁻ fasiyesinde yer aldığı belirlenmiştir. Bu durum gölet suyunun karbonatlı kayaçlarla ilişkili doğal jeokimyasal özelliklere sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Genel olarak elde edilen bulgular, gölet suyunun sulama amaçlı kullanıma uygun nitelikte olduğunu, ancak magnezyum birikimi ile bakır konsantrasyonunun düzenli olarak izlenmesinin, suyun uzun vadeli ve sürdürülebilir kullanımı açısından kritik önem taşıdığını göstermektedir.

Analysis of Water Quality in Sorgun Hoşumlu Pond in Terms of Ionic and Heavy Metal Content

Abstract

In this study, the water quality of the pond was evaluated based on 10 physicochemical parameters and 7 heavy metals, and the results were discussed in accordance with SWQR (2016) and WHO (2021) standards. The measured parameters were generally found to be in compliance with both national and international guidelines. Among the heavy metals, only copper (Cu), with an average concentration of 7.64 µg/L, exceeded the SWQR (2016) threshold, while still remaining within the permissible limits of WHO (2021). Irrigation water indices indicated that the water is suitable for use in terms of SAR (1.80) and Na% (31.19), whereas PI (51.43) reflected medium quality, and MH (62.33) revealed a high magnesium hazard for irrigation purposes. Heavy metal pollution indices, HPI (10.70) and HEI (0.39), demonstrated that the pond water poses a low risk in terms of heavy metal contamination. According to the Piper diagram, the water was classified within the Ca²⁺–Mg²⁺–HCO₃⁻ facies, indicating that the hydrochemical characteristics of the pond are associated with carbonate-rich lithological formations. Overall, the findings suggest that while the pond water is suitable for irrigation, regular monitoring of magnesium accumulation and copper concentrations is essential to ensure its long-term and sustainable use.
