Elemental Pollution of Sediment near drain in Taungthaman Lake Dr.Aye Myat Mon Six sediment samples collected in 2016 from three different sites near drain in Taungthaman Lake, Amarapura, Mandalay region were examined by EDXRF method to estimate the elemental pollution of the sediments. The concentration values of toxic elements in sediment samples are compared with the recommended values of IAEA - 405 (1 August, 2000). The concentrations of Ni and As in these sediments are lower than the recommended values. The concentrations of (Cu, Cd and Hg) are higher than the recommended values. The enrichment factors of Hg in the sediments at the edge of the drain and from the deposit soil near drain are severe enrichment. The enrichment factor of Hg in the top sediment in agricultural soil around drain is moderately severe enrichment and the bottom sediment is moderate enrichment. 2017 http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12678/0000000538 https://meral.edu.mm/records/538
