Some approaches to remediation study of the fucoid sandstone in the Straz pod Ralskem site - Nothern Bohemia

  • Chapter

Abstract

The behaviour of acid contaminantion in fucoid sandstone was studied on samples from Straz pod Ralskem, Czech Republic. Long term leaching of solid phase cores of contaminated fucoid sandstone with very low value permeability about 0.6 mD by background groundwater from Cenomanian aquifer was performed and possible chemical reactions were proposed. Results of leaching and modified extraction method divided core samples into two groups, depending on their leaching kinetic parameter (KDM). The KDM is dependent predominantly on pore accessibility for leaching solution and dissolution of secondary minerals. Radioactive 35S and 3H were used to determine effective diffusion coefficients.
