6. Hazard screening of contaminated sites : bioavailable fractions and biological in vitro tools
Abstract : The environmental bioavailability of contaminants, rather than their total concentrations in the soil compartment play a decisive role for the risks associated with contaminated sites. Various soil constituents and abiotic conditions have strong influence on bioavailability, which may vary substantially between different locations. READ MORE

7. Landslide of contaminated soil into rivers: Environmental impacts and risks
Abstract : Landslide risk assessments and environmental risk assessments are routinely carried out in many countries exposed to landslide hazards and/or contaminated soil hazards, but separately from each other. By combining results from different types of risk assessments and superimposing the results, possible multi-hazards may be revealed, which is not the case when the results are only displayed independently.

8. Chlorinated organic pollutants in soil and groundwater at chlorophenol-contaminated sawmill sites
Abstract : Mixtures of chlorinated organic pollutants can be found in the soils at chlorophenol-contaminated sawmill, including (inter alia) polychlorinated phenols (CPs), phenoxyphenols (PCPPs), diphenyl ethers (PCDEs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and dioxins (PCDDs). These hydrophobic compounds have low water solubility and hence low mobility as truly dissolved compounds. READ MORE

9. Binding of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in soil : effects of solution chemistry, soil properties, and PFAS structure
Abstract : The large environmental mobility and persistence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) along with confirmed or suspected toxicities make the substances one of the great challenges of our time in the fields of chemical management and environmental risk assessment. In order to risk assess PFAS-contaminated sites, improved quantitative and mechanistic understanding of the partitioning and retention in soil is crucial. READ MORE
