“…Thus, a concentration range of 1.96-126.52 mg/kg Cu in sediments was measured in the Danube River [85] and 40 mg/kg in the Danube Delta [126], whereas, a maximum concentration of 263 mg/kg was reported in the Begej canal [84]. A similar trend was observed for Pb, Hg, Cd, As, Zn, and Cr.…”

“…No comparisons can be made neither for the values of Σ16PAHs or Σ6PCBs in Danube River sediment. Škrbić 's et al study reported values includes tributary, where larger amounts of pollutants are usually found [95], while Radu's et al study does not [84]. In terms of PCBs, Brborić et al reported the sum of seven PCB congeners [94] while Radu et al reported only 6six of them [84].…”

“…The Timiș River gathers its tributaries from Banat, Tarc and Poiana Rusca mountains, and, finally, the Piedmont hills Lugoj and Poganis, with a total length of watercourses of about 462 km and a watershed surface of 5505 km 2 on the Romanian territory, representing approximately 2.31% of the total area of Romania [16]. The Bega Channel and the Bega River are located in Banat, a region that lays down from the eastern part of the Pannonian plain to the south-western slopes of the Carpathians to the Tisza River, crossing the borders of Serbia, Romania and Hungary [17]. Bega River rises from Poiana Rusca mountains, under Pades peak (1359 m), from an altitude of 1150 m [18].…”

“…The Bega Channel represents 2.1 km of the border between Serbia and Romania and represent an artificial canal that flows as an extension of the Bega River from Timisoara, Romania, to its confluence in the Tisza River downstream of Zrenjanin, Serbia [17]. In previous years, starting with 1760 [19], the Bega Channel was an important transnational navigable route between the Danube River in north eastern Serbia and the city of Timisoara, but for political and economic reasons, the navigation of the canal was suspended in 1958 on the Yugoslav-Romanian border [17]. The Bega River provides approximately 70% of the raw water used for the production of drinking water in Timisoara Municipality [20].…”
