Abstract

Bu çalışma, Trakya Bölgesi'nin en önemli ve Türkiye'nin en kirli nehir havzalarından
biri olan Ergene Nehir Havzası içme sularında florür seviyelerinin belirlenmesi
amacıyla yapılmıştır. Ergene Havzası'nda belirlenen 30 istasyondan, 2018 yılı
yaz (kurak) sezonunda,  içme suyu
örnekleri toplandı. Su numunelerindeki florür seviyeleri spektrofotometre
kullanılarak belirlendi ve incelenen yerleşim alanlarının florür içeriğine göre
sınıflandırılması için tespit edilen verilere Cluster Analizi (CA) uygulandı.
Havza içme sularındaki florür birikimlerinin görsel bir özetini sunmak için
Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemi (CBS) kullanılmış ve havza florür dağılım haritası
çizilmiştir. Ayrıca edilen veriler sürekli olarak bu suyu içen yöre halkının
diş sağlığı açısından da değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmamız sonuçlarında göre,
Ergene Havzası içme suyunda florür birikimleri 0.246 ppm (Velimeşe Köyü) -
1.460 ppm (Bayramlı Köyü) arasında olarak tespit edilmiştir. CA sonuçlarına
göre ise, istatistiksel olarak anlamlı 3 küme tespit edilmiş ve bunlar “Yüksek
Florür Kümesi”, “Optimum Florür Kümesi” ve “Düşük Florür Kümesi” olarak
isimlendirilmiştir.

Fluoride Levels in Drinking Water and Assessment of Water Quality in Terms of Teeth Health in a Significant Watershed in Thrace Region: Ergene River Basin

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the fluoride levels in drinking water
of Ergene River Basin, which is known as the life blood of Thrace Region and
one of the most contaminated river basins in Turkey. Drinking
water
samples were collected from 30 stations including residential areas located in
the Ergene River Basin in dry (summer) season of 2018.
Fluoride levels of water
samples were determined by using a spectrophotometer and Cluster Analysis (CA)
was applied to detected fluoride data in order to classify the investigated
residential areas according to fluoride contents. Geographic Information System
(GIS) was also used in order to make a visual explanation by presenting
distribution map of fluoride accumulations and also the detected data were evaluated
in terms of teeth health of local people, who constantly drinks this water. According
to detected data, the fluoride accumulations in drinking water of Ergene River
Basin were determined between 0.246 ppm (Velimeşe Village) – 1.460 ppm (Bayramlı
Village). According to the results of CA, 3 statistically significant clusters
were formed as “High Fluoride Cluster”, “Optimum Fluoride Cluster” and “Low Fluoride
Cluster”.
