Abstract:

The present work aimed at analyzing the pollution extent of Eloor, an important industrial hub of Kerala. The study targeted at analyzing the impact of industrial pollutants on the physicochemical soil properties and the plant diversity of the site. The site selected for the purpose was Pathalam Bund zone of Eloor. The chemical analysis revealed that the pH of the polluted sample was alkaline while it was neutral in case of control sample. The polluted soil sample carried more chemical load like sulphate, chloride, phosphate, magnesium, calcium. The percentage of organic matter was found to be less in polluted sample. The plant community study proved that the plant diversity of the polluted zone was evidently lesser than the control.
