Disposal of slightly polluted soils. 2: Evaluation of soils polluted by gas utilities; Deponering af lettere forurenet jord. 2: Vurdering af gasvaerksforurenet jord

Abstract

The purpose is to evaluate the possibility of disposal of slightly polluted soils at a usual waste dump and the environmental consequences of such disposal. Soil from a gas utility would be typically affected by following pollutants: coal- and cokedust from storage heaps, containing hydrocarbons and metals; tar components from handling and storage of tar; phenols, ammonia, sulfates and cyanates related to ammonia processing; cyanides, cyanates, sulfides and sulfates related to purification systems and bog iron ore processing; oil from the oil washers. Specially the tar components and cyanide compounds are considered in the present evaluation. Chemical composition of the potential pollutants, soil types, porosity and humidity, biodegradation, ecotoxicology, effects upon plants of chemicals like tar and PAHs, membrane effects and percolation into ground water, evaporation and gas concentration in the air pores of the disposed soils are discussed. Benzene, toluene, phenols, naphtalene, phenanthrene, benzopyrene, quinoline and cyanide acceptable concentration limits for a disposal site were evaluated. (EG)
