The water quality of Mamasın Dam, the drinking water source for Aksaray in Turkey, is investigated for assessment of ecological and health risks according to data between December 2015 and November 2016. Water quality index, ecological risk, and health risk assessments are determined to depend on the intensity of occurrence of parameters and seasonal and spatial distributions at different depth ranges. As a result, some ions such as Al, As, B, Ba, Co, F, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se, and Zn were found to be exceeding the limit values of the national regulatory standards. Besides, Pb is listed in Priority Substances and Certain Other Pollutants according to Annex II. Because the WQI values of the water quality are low (below 60), the source is suitable for industrial and agricultural usage; however, it cannot be used for drinking water supply without treatment. The trace element levels, especially Ag, Ba, Cu, Cr, and Zn, are potential pollutants for organisms. The non‐carcinogenic health risks of As threaten both adults and children at “medium” and “high” levels through oral ingestion. The B, F, and Pb elements have Hazard Index values above 0.1 and may cause a “low” level risk chronic disease for children by oral ingestion.

土耳其Mamasın大坝的水质评估：使用水质指数法，生态和健康风险评估

根据2015年12月至2016年11月的数据，对土耳其阿克萨赖州的饮用水源Mamasın大坝的水质进行了调查，以评估生态和健康风险。确定水质指数，生态风险和健康风险评估取决于在不同深度范围内参数出现的强度和季节和空间分布。结果，发现一些离子，如铝，砷，硼，钡，钴，氟，锰，镍，铅，硒和锌等都超过了国家法规的限值。此外，根据附件二，铅被列入优先物质和某些其他污染物中。由于水质的WQI值较低（低于60），因此该水源适用于工业和农业。但是，未经处理就不能用于饮用水供应。微量元素的含量，尤其是银，钡，铜，铬和锌，是生物体的潜在污染物。砷的非致癌健康风险通过口服摄入以“中”和“高”水平威胁成人和儿童。B，F和Pb元素的危险指数值大于0.1，并且通过口服摄入可能对儿童造成“低”风险的慢性疾病。
