Determination of the mineralogical signatures of excavation residues as a task of this work has demonstrated that the mineral phase inventory has changed characteristically since the mixing and deposition of dead sediments. These changes are caused by the oxidation of pyrite due to aeration. In the mixed sediments deposited, a mean pyrite concentra...

Soil pollution and degradation is a result of population growth and technological development. A wide range of man-made chemicals designed for use in industry, agriculture, pest control, consumer goods, and emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels are the main sources for diffuse pollution. Within the water cycle, soils act as the key zone for...
Centrifugation, filtration, PCS, ICP-MS, AAS, SEM and EDX were compared to each other to characterize the inorganic colloids in the Elbe river. The ICP-MS and AAS-analysis of fractions obtained by centrifugation was found to be the most appropriate combination of methods. Thus the water of the Elbe river at Dresden contains inorganic colloids besid...
