This study aims to evaluate the impact of the landfill located in the Al-Jarashi area in Ramadi city, and its contribution to groundwater, air, and soil pollution. The results revealed that the concentration of bicarbonate ion (HCO3) in the groundwater was 8 mg/L, which is less than the acceptable limits ranging from 25 to 50 mg/L. Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels recorded 465 parts per million (PPM), exceeding the permissible limit of 250 parts per million. In comparison, the percentage of dissolved salts in the groundwater was recorded at 2850 mg/L, which led to a change in the chemistry of the groundwater in the study area. The soil texture analysis showed that the clay content was 33.5, silt 57.2, and sand 10.4 g/kg. This composition of the soil texture contributed to the leaching of waste juice and its mixing with groundwater. The study concluded that the landfill in Al-Jarashi poses a major environmental challenge due to the high concentrations of pollutants. The study recommended the need to carry out periodic monitoring and analysis by relevant government institutions, enhance waste management practices, and increase vegetation cover around the study area.

摘要

This study aims to evaluate the impact of the landfill located in the Al-Jarashi area in Ramadi city, and its contribution to groundwater, air, and soil pollution. The results revealed that the concentration of bicarbonate ion (HCO3) in the groundwater was 8 mg/L, which is less than the acceptable limits ranging from 25 to 50 mg/L. Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels recorded 465 parts per million (PPM), exceeding the permissible limit of 250 parts per million. In comparison, the percentage of dissolved salts in the groundwater was recorded at 2850 mg/L, which led to a change in the chemistry of the groundwater in the study area. The soil texture analysis showed that the clay content was 33.5, silt 57.2, and sand 10.4 g/kg. This composition of the soil texture contributed to the leaching of waste juice and its mixing with groundwater. The study concluded that the landfill in Al-Jarashi poses a major environmental challenge due to the high concentrations of pollutants. The study recommended the need to carry out periodic monitoring and analysis by relevant government institutions, enhance waste management practices, and increase vegetation cover around the study area.
