Heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cr, Hg, Mo, Zn, Co, Cu) content was determined in soil and plant samples collected in the different areas of the railway junction Tarnowskie Góry, as well as, near two main railway routes, i. e. Warsaw - Gdańsk and Katowice - Gdynia. In Tarnowskie Góry soil and plant samples were collected in four functional parts of the junction, i. e. the rolling stock cleaning bay, platform area, railway siding and loading ramp. It was found that the contamination of soil and plants by heavy metal was the highest in loading ramp. A particularly high pollution level of copper was observed. The contamination level near the railway routes decreased accordingly to the distance from routes which suggests pollutant role of railway transport.
The distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in plant and organic soil from 14 peatland sites in NE Poland and 7 peatland sites in SE Poland have been investigated. The total PAH concentration in the leaves of Ledum palustre collected from peatlands in NE Poland ranged from 232 ng/g to 1523 ng/g and was higher than the total PAH concentration in pine needles (Pinus sylvestris) taken from those same peatlands (the values ranged from 181 to307 ng/g). A similar trend was observed in the case of plants from the peatlands in SE Poland, except that the overall PAH concentration in the majority of the plant samples was found to be higher than those found in NE Poland. Phenanthrene and fluoranthene had the biggest share in the overall PAH concentration in all the peat and plant samples. The lack of 5- and 6-ringed PAHs in the plant and soil material indicates the lack of any direct emission sources of these compounds in regions adjacent to those examined in the study. Total sum of PAH pollution levels in peats and plants as well as vertical distribution of the concentrations in the soil profile of particular study sites integrates long-range pollution sources. To compare natural and antropogenic PAH input in the pealtlands, we have used parent PAH ratios: ANT/(ANT&PHE); FLT/(FLT&PYR). Our data suggest that PAHs with four and more rings do not allow a simple segregation into combustion or petroleum sources.
Zbadano skażenie gleby PCBs w otoczeniu dwóch szlaków kolejowych (linia kolejowa Warszawa-Gdynia oraz Centralna Magistrala Węglowa) różniących się rodzajem przewożonych ładunków. Zbadano także skażenie gleby PCBs oraz kadmem i ołowiem na terenie węzła kolejowego Iława Główna. Przeprowadzone badania potwierdziły przypuszczenie dotyczące emisji PCBs i metali ciężkich (Cd, Pb) przez transport kolejowy.
The study concerned PCB accumulation in soil at two depths (S1: 0-20 cm, S2: 20- 40 cm) and in Taraxacum officinale plants. It was carried out within railway junctions and near railway lines. Various degrees of PCB contamination were detected in soil and parts of plants above the ground level. PCB content in most soil samples was between 100 and 250 ng/g, while in plants it varied from 100 to 800 ng/g. An analysis of the distribution of different groups of PCB congeners in plant and soil material has revealed that the content of hepta-CB and hexa-CB fractions was the highest of all PCBs for both soil depths, as well as for plants. No significant differences were found for the degree of various PCB congener group penetration into the soil, neither in railway junction areas, nor in the vicinity of railway tracks. Statistical test of pair comparison, performed in order to establish the rate at which plants accumulate different groups of PCB congeners has revealed significant differences in accumulation rates for the following pairs: penta-chlorinated congeners are accumulated at a higher rate than tetra-chlorinated ones and hexa-chlorinated congeners are accumulated at a higher rate than penta-chlorinated ones. This phenomenon occurs in the area of railway junctions (areas heavily polluted with oil derivatives). It was found that in the area of railway lines (areas with low levels of pollution) hexa-chlorinated congeners were accumulated at a higher rate than tetra- and penta-chlorinated ones. No significant differences were found for other pairs of PCB congeners. The use of dandelion as a bioindicator of environmental pollution with PCB congeners seems to be a good and reliable source of information about the emission of those substances into the natural environment.
