Sedimentable particles, meteorological parameters, heavy metals, wind roses, relative humidityAbstract
The objective of this study is to evaluate the concentration of sedimentary particles (SP) and the concentration of heavy metals (Pb, Cu, and Zn) in the industrial Zarate zone, district of San Juan de Lurigancho (Lima). Additionally, it was analyzed the relationship between the concentrations (SP and heavy metals) and the main local meteorological parameters. Four monitoring stations were established and the samples were collected by the passive method during September and October of 2018. Results obtained indicate high SP concentrations with values of 9.16 and 6.12 mg / cm2 per month and high heavy metals contents, at the north of the study area. These were higher when compared with other national and international standards for residential zones, is evident the influence of the meteorological parameters on the concentration of PS. It is necessary to make future investigations on the relationship between this and fine particles such as PM10, PM2.5, the presence of metals in soils and sources identification.
