For the investigation, three differently remedied plots and one comparison plot were selected and the main physical and chemical proper
26、ties of the soils were tested. The plot with the topsoil removed was still of high contaminants and low pH value. The plot remedied by using industrial mineral amendments showed a reduction in contaminants and a buffering of pH, but it still had level of metals. The subsoil covered plot showed the l
