Abstract

Selected heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Pb and Cd) in Sava River water and sediment in Serbia were investigated on three locations in the vicinity of industrial and urban settlements (Sabac, Obrenovac, Beograd) during the period spring 2007-autumn 2011. The fluxes of heavy metals from river water to sediment due to sedimentation and heavy metal re-suspension fluxes due to sediment re-suspension at a high flow were determined, by applying the model for assessment of the transport the pollutants through rivers. Those fluxes were attributed mainly to natural processes.
