Soil Contamination from Cassava Wastewater Discharges in a Rural Community in the Niger Delta, Nigeria

Soil Contamination from Cassava Wastewater Discharges in a Rural Community in the Niger Delta, Nigeria

Ten soil samples were collected with a 9mm Dutch auger along two transects for six months for the purposes of investigating the effects of cassava wastewater on the physico-chemical characteristics of soils around a cassava processing plant in a rural community in the Niger Delta. It was observed th...
