Project Summary
A pot based trial will be established to investigate and compare
the effectiveness of applying different manures and/or commercial
NPK fertiliser for biological treatment of soils contaminated with
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In particular, effects on
the degradation kinetics of aged PAHs in long-term field
contaminated soils will be investigated.
