| Abstract: | Heavy metals in soil of a sewage sludge experimental field The total amounts of Zn, Cd, Pb, Cu, Cr and Ni were determined in different depths of soils which have obtained sewage sludges in amounts between 180 and 1620 dt dry matter/ha. The elements Zn, Cd. Pb and Cu have been most enriched in the first twenty cm of the soils. The contents of Zn, Cd and Pb in the depth of 40–60 cm also showed a significant increase. The treshold values for Zn and Cd in soils were almost attained respectivly slightly exceeded in the first twenty cm of the soil which has obtained 1440 dt dry matter sewage sludge per ha. |
