Abstract:As,Pb,and Cr in filter-press sludge were analyzed by atomic fluorescence and ICP-AES.The pollutionlevel and potential ecological risk were analyzed.The results showed that all the five heavy metals weredetected in the sludge,and the order ranked from high concentration to low was Cr>Pb>As>Cd>Hg.Thesingle-factor pollution index of Cd was the highest,which reached slightly polluted level.The heavymetal comprehensive pollution index of sludge was 0.94 which is moderately clean level.The potentialecological risk level of Cd was the highest.The total potential ecological risk level reached the mediumrisk level.
