| dc.description.abstract | This study examined the impacts of industrial development on the expropriated households' welfare and surrounding environment in Sabata town, Central Ethiopia. Household survey, focus group discussion, and key informant interviews were used to generate socio-economic data. The samples of industrial wastewater, soil, and vegetables were also collected to measure the concentration of physicochemical parameters and heavy metals in the samples. One-way ANOVA, endogenous switching regression, P-value, principal component analysis, Pearson correlation coefficient, hazard index, and bioacculmation factor were employed to analyze the the acquisition, compensation and expropriation practices; impact of industrialization on welfare of expropriated households; physicochemicalconcentration of river water and industrial wastewater;heavy metal concentration in wastewater, soil, and plants irrigated from industrial wastewater in the sampled area. The comparsion made between expropriated and non expropriated households based on income and expenditure. The results depicted that expropriated households' income decreases and personal expenditure increases contrary to nonexpropriated households'. The electrical conductivity, biological oxygen demand, total suspended solid, total Nitrogen, and total Phosphorus were significant along spatio-temporality variation which depicts the disruption of river water quality by industrial industrial wastewater. The bio-concentration factor of heavy metals was higher than one for copper signifying the increasing probability of health risk for those who consume vegetables grown in the area. The soil and river systems in the industrial areas must be reclaimed/restored using the existing industrial pollution control standard, installation of the treatment plant, transformation of industrial residual into biogas products, and realization of corporate social responsibility. The land acquisition induced compensation practices and expropriated households' welfare must also need to be restored through the implementation of collaborative property valuation, resettlement programs, and allocation of share from the company. | en_US |
