The polluted K.lodnica River affects bad water quality of the canal. For example the concentrations of chlorides (Cl), sulfates (S04), sodium (Na), potassium (K), conductivity and dissolved substances quality of water is out of standards. In the case of BOD and COD the water quality is changed from out of classes to II class. pH and oxygen concentration are in I class. Although no salinity waters flow into the canal, the water quality get improved slightly only. The decrease of pollutants concentration is related to theirs dispersion. In the case of water quality the self-purification processes are of secondary importance.}, type={Artykuł}, title={Hydrochemical Research on Gliwice Channel, Selected Physicochemical Parameters of Water Quality}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/124041/PDF/6_AE_VOL_27_4_2001_Kostecki_Badania.pdf}, keywords={cascade-channel, hydrochemistry, water quality}, }
