    Summary

    The introduction of regional, national and international measures for the protection ofsoil and water strongly depends on the acquisition of accurate, precise and especiallycomparable analytical data. The aims to equalize (normalize, standardize) all involved procedures leads to the use of international norms like DIN, EN, ISO, ASTM, (EPA)etc. If norms are not applied, data cannot be compared with existing regulations.Inaccurate sampling in the field and even small, not documented changes in the wholechain of the analytical procedure, or the processing of attained data, could lead to sig-nificant differences in the final results.Economic or legal conclusions drawn from these final results are in general focused onsustainable life quality and economic effectiveness. So planning on a faulty databasecauses enormous losses.

    Here guidelines for soil quality sampling and heavy metal analysis in soil with refer-ence to international norms are presented. We have incorporated in this paper somehints from our practical work, especially in the Damascus Ghouta in Syria and theBekaa plain in Lebanon.

    Also other than the here mentioned norms and standards are important guidelines howto plan, proceed and present activities in all sectors of development, construction, production, control, research and even customer service.

    Operating according to ISO STANDARDS will lead to comparable results from whichconclusions, influencing economic and legal aspects of life could be drawn.It shall be mentioned here, that for soil-ecological purposes, and here the estimation oflong-term mobilisation rates of elements and matrix components of the soil the extrac-tion with HCL-HNO3 (aqua-regia) after ISO 11466 is obligatory.

    1 Introduction

    Any kind of successful survey needs to be planned beforehand. Comprehensive work-ing concepts for the collection and evaluation of data and its management have to bedeveloped beforehand.

    Decisions on alternatives of sampling and analysis have to be taken. With a view to theevaluation of results, methodologies for the later appraisal have to be selected. For ex-ample: our results of the heavy metal analysis were supposed to be related with thresh-old-values measured in Aqua Regia after ISO 11466.The documentation of data, their storage, access, handling, evaluation and presentationhad to be pre-planned accordingly. An adequate quality control of soil analytical dataas well as remote sensing data and others had to be assured.

    For further information on the soil protection concept itself please refer to the Guide-line for Soil Protection - Concepts for the Assessment of Soil Pollution, volume 9 ofthis series.

    2 Collection of Data and Data Handling

    In order to secure a complete collection of relevant data from soil sampling the follow-ing Minimum-Data-Set (Scheme 1) must be respected. If all of the here mentionedaspects are filled with the respective information a secure data storage, data manage-ment and data evaluation is possible.

    The latter describes minimum requirements for data identification.The procedures and alternatives for problem oriented field activities should be drawnfrom international norms.

    The use of international norms assures a comparison of results and hence enables theresearchers to use existing thresholds and sound recommendations. These ISO Normsmay not yet be available in all regions but they can be reached easily.

    2.1 ISO Norms for Soil Sampling and Comments

    Many different sampling patterns may be adopted in soil sampling for contaminatedsoil, a good overview of alternatives is given in the ISO 10381-1 to 5, and they con-form to international standards.

    ISO/DIS 10381-1, Publication date: 1995-11Soil quality - Sampling - Part 1: Guidance on the design of sampling programs

    Scope:ISO 10381-1 sets out the general principles to be applied in the design of sampling programs for the purpose of characterizing and controlling soil quality and identifica-tion of sources and effects of contamination of soil and related material. Detailed in-structions for specific sampling situations are given in other parts of these internationalstandards.

    Annex B provides a Procedure for the determination of a sampling plan.

    Annex C gives an overview about Examples for different sampling patterns used insoil sampling programs.

    DIN ISO 10381-2, Publication date: 1996-02

    Soil quality - Sampling - Part 2: Guidance on sampling techniques (ISO/DIS10381-2: 1995)

    This part of ISO 10381 contains an overall guideline of the soil sampling, samplehandling, transport and storage for the determination of soil fertility and contamina-tions.

    Also considered:Groundwater sampling,Soil gas,

    Disturbed and undisturbed sampling for soil density in different depth,Information about typical equipment for special sampling conditions and representa-tive sampling,

    Here you will also find Industries and related polluting substances in Annex B, Table B1(consists of 13 pages), which gives an overview about e.g. airports via chemical works, pet-rol plants, sewage and waste treatments etc. related to their pollution potential, either inor-ganic or organic.

    2.2 Soil Sampling in the Field, some practical Aspects

    We chose a systemic way of site selection for sampling in the Ghouta area, where the soilwas more uniform and the area was plain. It was projected to select the locations in a kindof regular grid and to cover 100 km2 with about 100 pits - and as far as possible equidistant.In the Bekaa plain the distribution of sampling spots was mainly bound to the soil units andtopography.

    The following procedures were used for sampling:

    - because of the lack of uncultivated or virgin sites in the pilot area, onlycultivated sites could be selected,

    - generally a distance of 30 m was kept from roads, ditches, buildings and trees,

    - only pits were used for sampling, this helped to avoid sample contaminationthrough mixing the special horizon sample with down-falling soil. For the same reasonthe horizons were sampled in the order: from bottom to top,

    - the pits were adjusted N to S, the wall exposed to the S was cleaned from top to bottom, horizons were delineated and described in detail according to a soil profile description sheet using F.A.O. system, a photo was taken in full sunlightat noon,

    - samples were only taken by horizon, horizons thicker than 50 cm were divided into twosections prior to sampling.

    Soil samples were taken to a depth of 2 m or until stagnant or groundwater was hit.The pits were approximately 7-0 cm wide, 250 cm long and 210 cm deep.

    3 Analytical Studies

    The heavy metal content of the soil samples was determined in the GCSAR-soil-laboratory for the Syrian soil samples and in the BGR-soil-laboratory for the Lebanesesoil samples, respectively. An adequate quality control is absolute indispensable.The analytical work on possible contamination with organic substances took place in

    the BGR, Hanover, Germany. All laboratory analysis followed ISO Norms.

    Method selection:Only total-decomposition-techniques based on HF are producing comparable resultsfor the total element-spectrum, Real-total-results.

    Restrictions and methodological errors:The fluorescence rays of elements with an atomic number < 19 (potassium) show sig-nificant absorption by the MYLAR-foil; therefore this method is not useable for thequantitative determination of light elements. The sample material has to be < 50 m tominimise so-called shadow effects.

    4.2 XRF Analysis, using fused Sample Beads

    Descriptors: Heavy metal, soil chemistry

    Use:Characterisation of geo-chemical material content of main-and trace-elements, par-tially useful for the upper trace range.Typical parameter spectrum of main- and minor-element contents: SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3,Fe2O3, MnO, CaO, Na2O, K 2O, P2O5. Trace elements e.g. Cr, Rb, Sr, Ba etc.

    Method selection:Only total-decomposition-techniques based on HF are producing comparable resultsfor the total element-spectrum. Real-total-results.

    Restrictions and methodological errors:To receive reproducible and true results the fused sample tablet has to be clear, flat andhomogenous. Generally the determination of the elements starts with atomic number11 (Na). Numerous elements (especially trace elements) evaporate partially or com- pletely during the process of fusion (1500 C). The following elements show signifi-cant losses: S, Halogens, Zn, Ga, As, Se, Ru, Ag, Cd, In, Sb, Te, Re, Os, Hg, Tl, Pb,Bi.For the determination of trace elements hard-pressed sample tablets should be used, because there is no loss of volatile elements. Optimal determination limits will be

    guaranteed, because there is no dilution through flux-mixture. The sensitivity is 10times higher than in fused samples.

    4.3 Total Decomposition, using HF-HClO 4-HNO 3 (open)

    Descriptors: Heavy metal, soil chemistry

    Use:Determination of element concentrations in soil and rock. Comparison with other de-composition- or extraction-methods.Determination of estimated, maximal available element concentrations

    ment concentration according to Deutsche Klrschlammverordnung (AbfKlrV1992) = trace element concentrations in sewerage sludge.

    Method selection:Alternatively acid extractions using comparable acid strength: open HClO4-extraction(Hornburg 1991), boiling 7-mol HNO3, boiling 2 mol/l HNO3 (Anderson, 1975, VSBoSchweiz), modified method BZE-working-instructions (BZE 1994): decompose 1 g ofsoil with 20 ml aqua regia.

    Restrictions and methodological errors:Minor Hg-results if Ni or Cu is present in high concentrations. (Interference of the hy-dride-system, if used with NaBH4). Could be overcome by using SnCl2 as reductantfor Hg.

    4.6 Extraction with HClO 4-HNO 3

    Descriptors: Main- and trace-elements, soil-chemistry

    Use:Soil-ecology: Estimation of long-term mobilisation rate of elements and matrix com- ponents of the soil. Depending on the element and matrix composition of the soil 50 100% of the real-total-concentration (compared with XRF or pressurised acid-decomposition) is reached. Silicates and oxide are not decomposed completely.

    Method selection:Alternatively acid extractions using ISO 11466. Open HClO4-extraction offers the ad-vantage that it is usable for soil- and plant-analysis. Even samples with a high concen-tration of organic material (e.g. plant or peat samples) are decomposed without prob-lems. The use of HClO4 (perchloric-acid) demands for especially high security meas-ures. Need of a special perchloric-acid resisting fume cupboard (no organic materialslike wood or plastic).

    Restrictions and methodological errors:

    HClO4-matrix excludes the use of AAS-graphite-tube atomisation. In case of B-determination, boron-free glassware has to be used. Ready-to-analyse-solutions should be stored in PE-bottles.Minor Hg-results if Ni or Cu is present in high concentrations. (Interference of the hy-dride-system, if used with NaBH4). Could be overcome by using SnCl2 as reductantfor Hg.

    4.7 Extraction with hot 7-mol-HNO 3

    Descriptors: Main- and trace-elements, soil-chemistry

    Use:Prospecting method for colored metal ores (Cu, Ni, Co, Zn, etc.)

    Method selection:Prospecting method for colored metal-ores (Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, etc.).Similar extraction force to aqua regia, but less working-intensive. Used in prospecting-campaigns in Germany.

    Restrictions and methodological errors: No possibility to determine Hg, if sample is decomposed without the use of reflux-condenser and absorption-trap.

    4.8 Extraction with HCl (Ca, Mg, K, Na, P & SO 4)

    Descriptors: Plant-nutrients, soil-chemistry

    Use:Determination of nutrient-supply of soil (fertiliser-use or fertiliser-overuse)

    Method selection:

    Actually no comments

    Restrictions and methodological errors:Actually no comments

    4.9 Extraction with EDTA, Determination of mobile and Complex formingTrace Elements (pH 4,65)

    Descriptors: Main- and trace-elements, soil-chemistry

    Use:Judgement and risk-analysis of trace-elements, plant availability and determination oftoxic components for soil-organisms. Estimation of groundwater pollution. In com- parison with total-element-analysis or ISO 11466 plant availability could be calcu-lated.

    Method selection:Solution is buffered; therefore the extraction is not taking place at the real pH-range ofthe sample-material. The strongly pH-dependant mobility of most elements is not re-

    flected. Elements which are preferably bound carbonated or existing as an organiccomplex are extracted by EDTA-solution in significant higher quantities compared tounbuffered salt solutions. The great advantage of the ETDA-method is to avoid secon-

    16/29

    14

    dary reactions like the formation of insoluble phosphates during the extraction. Com- pared to salt solution the higher extraction force allows to determine a higher quantityof elements by flame AAS. Alternatively extractions with other buffer-solutions (0,01mol/l EDTA pH-7,0 or 0,005 mol DTPA-pH 7,3) could be used.

    Restrictions and methodological errors:The EDTA-solution is a pH-buffered complex forming agent; therefore the pH-depending mobility and plant-availability of trace elements are not described suffi-ciently. Elements, bound preferably organically, could be extracted in a range by over80% (Hni & Gupta 1982). If the pH of the soil is < pH 4 minor element concentra-tions will be extracted because of the decreasing complex forming force of the EDTA.

    4.10 Extraction with DTPA, Determination of mobile, available and slowlyreleased Trace Elements (pH 7,3)

    Descriptors: Main- and trace-elements, soil-chemistry

    Use:Proposal for the use of fertilizer, estimation of capacity of plant absorbance, risk-estimation of trace-elements, risk-estimation of groundwater pollution. In connectionwith total-element-analysis or ISO 11466 plant availability could be calculated, de- pending on the existing element reservoir.

    Method selection:Alternatively extractions with other buffer-solutions which contain complex formingagents: 0,01 mol/l EDTA pH-7,0 (French norm), 0,005 mol DTPA-pH 7,3 (French &Italian norm) could be used. The DTPA solution is buffered, therefore the extraction isnot taking place at the real pH-range of the sample-material. The strongly pH-dependant mobility of most elements is not reflected. Better results for the negative or positive influence of trace elements are obtained by using unbuffered salt solutions.DTPA solutions are extracting elements which are preferably bound as an organiccomplex in significant higher quantities compared to weakly buffered or unbufferedsalt solutions. Compared to unbuffered salt solutions the higher extraction force allowsto determine a higher quantity of elements by flame AAS. The close relationsoil/solution (1:2) causes a problem in peat (humin)-rich samples. (Hornburg 1991) proposes a relation 1:4.

    Restrictions and methodological errors:The complex forming capacity of chelates is decreasing significantly at a pH < 4(Hornburg 1991). Especially for humin-rich soil this method is not suitable because isnot representing the real pH-range of the sample-material.The close relation soil/solution (1:2) causes a problem in peat-rich samples. Extractionis not complete.Unbuffered salt-solution offers a far better choice to analyse the negative influence oftrace elements or the pedo-chemical influence in soils.

    4.11 Extraction with NH 4NO 3, Determination of mobile Trace Elements

    Descriptors: Main- and trace-elements, soil-chemistry

    Use:Risk estimation and description of the mobile phase of trace elements. Estimation of plant availability, toxic influence of pollutants for soil micro-organisms, risk estima-tion of groundwater pollution. In connection with total-element-analysis or ISO 11466 plant availability could be calculated, depending on the existing element reservoir.

    Method selection:Alternatively extractions with other non-buffered salt solutions: 0,01 mol/l CaCl2, 0,1mol/l CaCl2, 0,1 mol/l NaNO3 could be used. The advantage of the NH4 NO3-extractionlies in the advanced normation (DIN ISO 19730) and the presence of reference values(Pre 1994). Compared to the CaCl2-extraction no chlorine-complex-formation (e.g.Cd, Zn), which could cause an overestimation of the mobile trace-element phase oc-curs.

    Restrictions and methodological errors: Not yet completed research seems to proof that the use of AAS graphite-furnace tech-niques could show minor values with some elements (e.g. Cr, Ni). If the temperatureduring the heating phase rises to quickly the NaNO3 seems to ignite uncontrolled, thiscauses element loss. Probably furnace programmes have to be modified, that meansslow drying phase and slow heating phase. Under certain conditions other measure-ment methods have to be used. There are no problems using emission spectrophotome-try, but often detection limits are not sufficient. Trace elements which are mobilised ata low redox potential are often underestimated or not found, analyzing air dried soil.Using fresh, humid soil samples could solve the problem.

    4.12 Water-soluble Salts, (Soil Extraction with Water / Anions Cations)

    Descriptors: Main- and trace-elements, soil-chemistry

    Use:General aspects in soil science and agriculture.

    Method selection:Actually no comments

    Restrictions and methodological errors:Depending on analytical aspects either the extraction- (shaking-) time or the relationsoil / water could be changed to reach optimum salt solubility. Non-constant roomtemperature influences the final extractable salt-concentration. Peat layers must be ex-tracted with higher water amount than mineral soils.

    4.13 Sequential Extraction of Heavy Metals

    Descriptors: Heavy metals, soil-chemistry

    Use:Soil ecological aspects: determination of mobile, often anthropogenic heavy metalcontents in different substrates / soils. Strongly mobile heavy metal components areextracted in the first two steps. Probably a fine differentiation of heavy metal mobilitymakes no sense. Summarizing the percentage element concentrations from each ex-traction step for a single element is possible.

    Method selection:Different extraction sequences are used to determine the actual mineral (binding) formof heavy metals. Also different extraction sequences are proposed depending on dif-ferent sample matrixes. No norms are available yet. Actually the method according toZEIEN & BRMMER seems to be the most promising for soils.

    Restrictions and methodological errors:Determination limits of the used spectrophotometric methods have to be determinedusing matrix-adapted standard series. Determination limits in the trace range are oftenhigher because of the element-blank-concentration of the used chemicals. The de-scribed method could be used to differentiate heavy metal-binding-forms in oxidised,minor carbonated (< 5 % CaCO3) up to carbonate free soils. The method can not beused for other elements.

    More recommended [DIN EN] ISO standards are listed in the bibliography.

    5 Investigations on Contamination with Organic Substances

    Methodologies for the assessment of the ecological relevance of most organic con-taminants are still lacking. Research on soil reclamation under this aspect is ongoing.Some hints and threshold values can be found in SITTIG & MARSHALL (1994) and

    TRENCK (1997).Soil has a significant buffer and transformation capacity for organic contaminants. It isknown that the volatility of organic compounds decreases with increasing molecularweight and that the plant can even take up these compounds. THIELE (1997) found agood correlation between the NH4 NO3 extractable PAH and the PAH uptake of spin-ach.The hydrophobic compounds PAH and PCB do have a high affinity to soil organicmatter and their mobility was estimated to be low. MARSCHNER (1997) found a rela-tively high mobility which was influenced by various biological and chemical factors.Important amounts of PAH and PCB can be transferred to the groundwater by leaching

    with water.

    Samples were taken from the soil surface at selected points with a possible pollutionwith organic contaminants of the pilot area. For this checkup in our case the reconnais-sance level of sampling was adequate (8 samples in Syria, 4 samples in the Lebanon).The sampling took place on the 25th and 26th of November 1998 in the Syrian pilotarea and on the 8th of December 1998 in Lebanon respectively.The samples had to be taken and stored in special glass containers and transportedwithout delay to the BGR laboratory.

    The scope of the investigation for the soils part covered the following:

    - absorbable halogen organic compounds (AOX) after DIN 38414 S18 (micro coulometric procedure),

    - mineral-oil-carbo-hydrates according to DIN 38409 H53 / ISO 9377 4 (Soil)gas-chromatographic procedure for soils),

    - easily volatile halogenated compounds, measured with a BGR designed proce-dure for soils (headspace-gas-chromatography) after DIN 38407 - F5 (Water),

    - easily volatile mono-aromatic compounds, measured with a BGR designed pro-cedure for soils (headspace-gas-chromatography) after DIN 38407- F9 (Water).

    6 GIS Use and Presentation of Data

    Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have emerged as effective tools in decisionmaking in many areas, such as in engineering and the field of environmental assess-ments. The use of attributes, spatial data, methods and their relationship allows for thecreation and visualization of a required localized-area-information.

    The objective of using GIS applications here are research, presentation and to facilitatethe models continued use as an analytical tool in future decision making processes asmodifications and new data become available. GIS use should also provide an inte-grated platform of archiving, analyzing, updating and managing the various compo-nents of the project.

    The maps were created in the partner institutions and with backup through the project,

    they have a scale 1:50,000. All relevant data is stored on a CD for each pilot area at-tached to the individual volumes of the report. Map features are organized in sets oflayers (coverage) of information including the following themes:

    Soil profile point coverageContour lines line coverageRoads line coverageRivers line coverageGrid line coverageTowns polygon coverage
