The aim of this report is to present long-term (1992-98) trends in percolation water Zn concentrations close to the smelter, to assess whether Zn leaching is likely to affect ground water quality, and to determine whether liming agents could be used to counteract this potential hazard.
Effect of liming (LT) and correction fertilisation (CF) on the Zn concentrations in percolation water (depth 20 cm) at a distance of 0.5 km from the Harjavalta smelter during 1992-1998.
Conclusions Despite the considerable reduction in emissions from the Harjavalta Cu-Ni smelter, there is strong evidence to suggest that the large amounts of Zn that have accumulated in the surface soil of the forest ecostems surrounding the smelter during the past 50 years are gradually being mobilised and carried deeper down into the soil.
