Abstract
More and more, sites of heavily contaminated soils are being detected in most industrialized countries. In Germany alone, about 138 722 sites were registered within the past few years, while estimates of 244 926 sites are being discussed (data from Umweltbundesamt, Berlin 1994). According to the increased standards for polluted soils (e. g. German sewage sludge standards/Klarschlammverordnung from 1992), demand is high to find solutions to the problem of safe contaminant disposal.
