Lakes and reservoirs are the main water resources for household, irrigation, and industrial use. Hence, it is necessary to control water pollution and have reliable information on water quality, which refers to its suitability for a particular purpose. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the suitability of water for drinking and irrigation purposes from ten artificial lakes on the territory of the Republic of Serbia. The physicochemical parameters were determined using standard analytical methods, whereas the optical emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma, ICP-OES, was used to determine the concentrations of 23 macro-, micro-, and trace elements in water. Health risk indices of drinking water and its suitability for irrigation purposes were evaluated. The results of physicochemical parameters, except for total organic matter, indicated that most samples were within the recommended values. Among analyzed elements, the concentration of Mg was elevated in the water of the lakes Srebrno and Prvonek. The results of health risk assessment clearly showed that there was no acute health risk (HQ < 1), whereas long-term risk (HQ) in the studied lakes was observed with respect to As (lakes Grlište and Srebrno), Mn (lakes Srebrno and Prvonek), Ni (Lake Vrutci), and Sr (Lake Grlište). The irrigation criteria indicated that the water from the examined lakes had satisfactory quality for this purpose, except for residual sodium carbonates (RSC). This criterion indicated low quality or unsuitability of the water in 7 lakes. The main outcomes provided valuable information on the suitability of water from the artificial lakes for intended uses.
湖泊和水库是家庭、灌溉和工业用水的主要水资源。因此，有必要控制水污染，并对水质有可靠的信息，即其是否适合特定用途。本研究的主要目的是评估塞尔维亚共和国境内十个人工湖的水用于饮用水和灌溉的适宜性。使用标准分析方法测定了理化参数，而采用电感耦合等离子体 - 发射光谱法（ICP-OES）测定了水中 23 种宏量、微量和痕量元素的浓度。评估了饮用水的健康风险指数及其用于灌溉的适宜性。除总有机物质外，理化参数的结果表明，大多数样本都在推荐值范围内。在所分析的元素中，Mg 的浓度在 Srebrno 和 Prvonek 湖的水中升高。健康风险评估的结果清楚地表明，没有急性健康风险（HQ<1），而在研究的湖泊中观察到了 As（Grlište 和 Srebrno 湖）、Mn（Srebrno 和 Prvonek 湖）、Ni（Vrutci 湖）和 Sr（Grlište 湖）的长期风险（HQ）。灌溉标准表明，除残余碳酸钠（RSC）外，来自这些湖泊的水在这方面具有令人满意的质量。该标准表明，7 个湖泊的水质量较低或不适合灌溉。主要结果提供了关于人工湖的水用于预期用途的适宜性的有价值的信息。
