In this work the anthropogenic sediments from area of Old Town Szczecin (Square of Orła Białego) were characterized. It was found that layer of these sediments had thickness of approx. 4 m and materials contained therein were enriched in organic matter, including humus. These sediments contained a huge amount of mechanical deposits which were dominated by building rubble that formed of 3-meter continuous rubble layer within the anthropogenic layer. Building rubble enriched materials in calcium carbonate and caused their alkalinisation even to level pHKCl=8.7. These deposits caused also a very clear increase of lead and zinc contents, clear increase of copper content and slightly enrichment of materials in cadmium. Not confirmed the effect of mechanical deposits on nickel content. The maximum content of Zn, Cu, Pb and Cd were respectively: 685, 146, 716 and 1.7 mg·kg-1 . These amounts were higher than acceptable level for I group of grounds: seven times in respect of lead, twice in case of zinc according Regulation of Minister of Environment from 1 September 2016 [Dz.U. 2016 nr 0 poz. 1395]. |
