Some Physicochemical Properties of Soils from Three Steel Welding and Fabrication Workshops in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria

Some physicochemical properties were assessed in soils within steel welding and fabrication workshops Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. The study was carried out between May to November, 2020. parameters determined using standard conventional methods of analysis ascertain the different levels selected studied environment. results obtained months revealed that pH average range 6.8±0.08-7.1±0.05, electrical conductivity 65.25±0.83-76±0.71µs/cm, percentage organic carbon 0.396±0.001-0.525±0.001%, soil matter 0.682±0.002-0.904±0.002% for particle size analysis, sand 75±0.71-79±0.71%, clay 9.25±0.83-11±0.71% silt 10.75±0.43-14±0.71% Egbelu, Elioparanwo Saint John respectively. Observation from nature occurrence steel-welding showed has not yet influenced level studied.
