Their depth distribution in soil and soil water will be simulated by a numerical model. Heavy metal contents in soil and soil water are gathered on an experimental field plot, located on the former Berlin sewage farms. Measured data will be used for fitting and validation.

It refers to the naturally occurring processes like dispersion, diffusion, sorption, volatilization, degradation and transformation, all of which can substantially decrease contaminant concentration, mass, toxicity and/or mobility within soil and groundwater. The efficiency of Natural Attenuation processes depends to

Deze stoffen behoren tot de groep poly- en perfluoralkylstoffen (PFAS) en zijn door mensen gemaakt. Deze stoffen zijn in veel producten toegepast. Daardoor, en door fabrieksemissies en incidenten, zijn PFAS in het milieu terechtgekomen en zitten nu onder andere in de bodem, in bagger en in het oppervlaktewater. Bagger komt vrij als watergangen worden onderhouden om bijvoorbeeld de bevaarbaarheid en de waterafvoer zeker te stellen. Deze bagger wordt vaak op het aangrenzend perceel gelegd. Op deze manier kunnen PFAS op agrarisch land terecht komen. Het RIVM heeft de risicogrenzen bepaald voor PFAS in grond voor de landbouwvormen akkerbouw en veeteelt. Dit is gedaan omdat er (nog) geen landelijke normen bestaan voor PFAS in grond en bagger voor deze bodemfuncties. Een aantal decentrale overheden, waaronder de provincie Noord-Holland en de gemeente Haarlemmermeer, hebben daarom zelf lokale normen voor grond...

To this purpose, the possibilities and tools for the derivation of function specific GSVs, i.e., GSVs that depend on the actual contact of humans and ecosystems with groundwater and groundwater-related mediums, are elaborated in this study. Application of GSVs geared to the specific use and function of specific groundwater volumes could result in a more effective and cost-efficient groundwater quality management, without compromising the protection of human health and the ecosystem. Therefore, a procedure to derive function specific GSVs was developed. For illustrative purposes, risk limits have been derived for human health and ecological protection targets, for arsenic, benzene, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and vinylchloride. Agriculture and Nature reserves (combined), Residential and Industrial land uses have been considere...

Elemental arsenic and inorganic arsenic induce a range of toxicological effects and has been classified as proven human carcinogens. The combination of easy access to the beach and the presence of arsenic raised concern about possible human health effects by the local authorities. The objective of this study is therefore to investigate human health risks from the presence of arsenic-containing iron ore lumps in a beach setting. The exposure scenarios underlying the human health-based risk limits for contaminated land in The Netherlands, based on soil material ingestion and a residential setting, are not appropriate. Two specific exposure scenarios related to the playing with iron ore lumps on the beach ('sandcastle building') are developed on the basis of expert judgement, relating to children i...
