Description

The management of solid waste is one of the challenges of large urban centers. The Itaoca dump in São Gonçalo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has existed for 28 years in the mangrove region. This experiment assessed environmental liability through a sedimentary profile collected from a drainage channel adjacent to the mangrove. In this profile, biopolymers (organic matter and total organic carbon) and metals' total and available fractions (Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Hg, Cd, Pb, and Zn) were quantified, serving as descriptors of the local trophic status.
