Within the activity are tracked by source, sorption and desorption, mobility and accessibility in the soil, soil degradation, influence the transport of heat transport in soil, groundwater and surface water, binding to the organic matter and other characteristics of a wide range of organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, pharmaceuticals, cleaning and cosmetic products, residues. Controlled substances are not examined separately, but only in mutual interaction. It is also evaluated the potential of waste materials with high content of organic matter, these pollutants be sorbed, or. to contribute to their degradation.
To describe the behavior and the potential transformation, immobilization or degradation of these compounds are utilized adequate extraction and separation techniques (liquid and gas chromatography), mass spectrometry. For a description of the transformation and degradation of substances as well as due to their potential entry into the soil organisms and plant isotopic tracing method is applied with the use of light isotopes.
