 What are the impacts of
this issue
The elements associated with air pollution, mainly
Fe, Mn, Cl, forms of nitrogen and high alkalisation are mostly bound
to soil, and they pass into water only in a lesser extent. The most
extensive areal pollution is conditioned in the hinterland of Košice
by agricultural production, and is manifested mainly by the contents
of NO3, SO4 and NH4 ions, that
cause the fact that that smaller streams and dead surface water are
polluted much more than the Hornád River. The contents of sulphates,
manganese, NH4 ions and
increased contents of mercury were found in the VSŽ
area.
