THE USE OF ENZYMATIC TESTS FOR QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF SOILS IN REMEDIED POST-INDUSTRIAL AREAS
Journal Title: Folia Pomeranae Universitatis Technologiae Stetinensis Agricultura Alimentaria Piscaria et Zootechnica - Year 2016, Vol 39, Issue 328
Abstract
In this study, communicative enzymatic indicators were applied to assess the quality of soils in remedied post-industrial areas. The research encompassed soils at the former railway grounds in Lublin and Radom, and soils at the ZA Puławy SA site and at the ZE Dolna Odra SA ash dumpsite in Nowe Czarnowo. The study revealed high biological inactivation in these post- -railway areas. In the case of soils near the site of ZA Puławy SA and at the ash dumpsite in Nowe Czarnowo, the results obtained indicate that the utilised reclamation systems have been effective. The suggested communicative indicators, reflecting the metabolism of the soil ecosystem, enable quick assessment of the quality and health of the soils, as well as quantification of the ecological effects of the utilised remediation systems or protection programs for post-industrial area ecosystems.
