Scrap metal deposits as potential sources of enhanced risk in soil and vegetation
Original language description
High levels of soil pollution occur worldwide as a result of industrial and agricultural production, automotive and rail transport, and other human activities. In the metal-processing industry, risk elements (As, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, V, Zn, etc.) in the waste produced should be contained, and can be an environmental risk. Our experiment monitored soil contamination levels around metal scrap deposits and their potential impact as a risk to dandelion (Taraxacum sect. Ruderalia) biomass. Sampling was carried out in four open deposits of metallic scrap located in East Bohemia, Czech Republic. The results showed a variety of risk elements in the soils, with no relationship to the soil physicochemical parameters, but affected by the amount, composition, and ageing of the deposited metallic scrap. The element contents in soils varied in a wide range and for some elements reached extremely high levels: 1,68+-2,81 mg/kg of Cd, 62,0+-71,8 mg/kg of Cr, 262+-376 mg/kg of Cu, 193+-355 mg/kg of Pb, and 495+
