This study aims to identify the chemical composition of sargassum seaweed collected from three coastal areas of Côte d’Ivoire. Specifically, it focuses on assessing the mineral and nutritional components as well as the heavy metal content of these macroalgae. Samples from the selected sites were collected and analyzed using an air–argon flame ICP-OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry), Agilent 5800 model. The results revealed that, among the mineral and nutritional components analyzed, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium were present at the highest concentrations compared to the other parameters. Regarding heavy metals, the elements investigated included arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn). The low levels of heavy metals detected in the samples (well below the permissible limits) indicate that the collected sargassum does not pose any risk of contamination by these metals. The concentrations of mineral/nutritional components and heavy metals varied depending on the collection area, highlighting sargassum as an effective bioaccumulator that remains non-contaminating. These characteristics suggest a significant potential for its valorization in agricultural, industrial, biomedical, and biotechnological sectors.
