F172 The influence of root-induced acidifications of the rhizosphere on the mobility of heavy metals in municipal waste incinerator bottom slag.

Field of work:

(4) Environmental indicators, sensors and monitoring

Issues of future research:
1) apparent CO2 content in the root zone of the slag soil 2) release of havy-metals by aboveground uptake through the vegetation 3)continuation of the lysimeter-experiment 4)measuring the root-exudation kinetics over the vegetation period
