City landfills, abandoned wastelands after industrial construction, quarry dumps, sludge storages and tanks, unprocessed waste from any industrial production, spills of fuels, lubricants and oil products, warehouses of expired or prohibited pesticides and venoms – all these are objects of accumulated damage.
Revegetation
Do not forget about the “side” waste of the industrial agriculture itself: these are burial grounds, and bird droppings, and cake storages at oil mills, emissions from technological processes at processing enterprises, beet pulp and filtration sludge from sugar industries.
If reclamation is required at the site of fresh technogenic pollution, then it’s enough to apply measures proportional to the damage: irrigation, soil tedding, sanitation of the pathogenic environment, sowing legumes forage crops, etc. The more neglected the object, the harder it is to rely on self-purification of the environment. Disinfection of such lands becomes more complicated as land degradation expands.
Rehabilitation itself consists in stimulating the ecosystem’s own resources to restore the original or optimal functions of microbiota self-regulation.
Our SatoSoil® peat-sapropel mixtures have been tested on several objects of accumulated damage both in pure form, that is, without additives, and with complementary reagents and binders, when stabilization and reduction of pollutant activity is required, namely with the help of bitumen, phosphogypsum or zeolite, lime, silicon or phosphorus compounds. The introduced reagents promote either the decomposition of pollutants into less toxic substances or delay their effect and mobility in soils and waters.
The peat-sapropel mixture is rich in humic and fulvic acids and binds radionuclides, heavy metals, excess of mineral fertilizers into insoluble and low mobile complexes, restoring the redox potential of soils.
There is a common belief that peat and sand are effective adsorbents for oil spills, but it’s not. For a fresh spill, a number of intermediate steps should be taken to collect and pump out spilled products, neutralize, dry, weather, photo-oxidize, etc. A rational and professional approach to such tasks is important.
