Abstract
In second part of the paper a case study is presented for evaluation of long-term changes of the environmental mobility of PTE contaminations in the fish pond system of GödöllÅ town. For vertical and horizontal mapping of PTE content of accumulated sediment layers core samples were taken in 1994, 1995 and 2013. In the sediment layers total soluble PTE content was related to the BCR fractionation. The Chernobyl origine radionuclides were detected by γ-spectroscopy. The BCR sequential extraction procedure for tracking the long-term fate of PTE contamination of different origine in surface water/sediment/systems showed a much potential. By repetition of fractionation of PTEs after 20 years clearly reflects the change of PTE concentrations in different fractions. The decrease of PTE concentrations can be explained by leaching the most mobile fractions by water exchange over the sediment and/or by remediation activity.
