Abstract
Pollution of the watercourse of Abidjan, the capital of Ivory Cost, is a major phenomenon affecting the aquatic ecosystem, biodiversity and the health of the population. Although industry contributes to the city's economic growth, it is a major factor in the pollution of the Lagune Ébrié. This article shows the impact of industrial activities on water quality by identifying the main cause of pollution and analyzing the consequences. The article also proposes a solution to reduce this problem and ensure better management of water resources in Abidjan.
