Resumo

The problem in Zlatna area is heavy metals pollution. There were two important sources causing environmental pollution in the area: S.C. Ampelum S.A. Zlatna which generated acid emissions in the area years in a row and Zlatna Mining Branch. The study aims to elaborate a complex research in a polluted industrial area; the methodology and the results besides being scientific they also represent an important educational material for the environmental engineering students. We have measured suspension content, pH of mine water and the contents of the Mn, Zn and Fe for 3 years.
