Abstract :
In order to quality assessment of some pollutant industrials in Bandar Abbas, 16 effluent samples were collectedfrom important industrial units. Lead, cadmium, copper, Chromium, Arsenic, Mercury, Vanadium and Nickelwere chosen as representative trace metals whose levels in the environment represent a reliable index ofenvironmental pollution. Some discharged effluents to the environment show V, As and Hg pollution probablyrelated to fossil fuel consumptions. Also, effluents used for irrigation of landscapes indicate high TDS constantand so are unsuitable for this purpose.
