Abstract
The available methods for the cleaning of contaminated soil do not always succeed in bringing the concentrations of heavy metals down to limits specified by the central government in the Netherlands [1]. A possible explanation is that the remaining metals may consist of a less mobile fraction of the overall contamination. A reduced mobility, however, implies that the residual concentrations possibly are more acceptable.
