AB  - A particularly high pollution level of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) was observed in
the soil at the railway junction in the city of Niš (Serbia). The TPH level in most of the
studied soil samples exceeded the limit intervention value of 5000 mg/kg. The
contamination level decreased alongside the train rail route, according to the distance from
the fuel station. This suggests the pollutant role of railway transport, with the fuel station
identified as a pollution hotspot. Health risk assessment of the contaminated soil has been
made by using TPH fraction approach. Among six aliphatic and seven aromatic
hydrocarbon fractions, the highest TPH content in soil was measured for EC16-C35
aliphatic fraction. This aliphatic fraction causes the highest individual non-cancerogenic
health risk, while cancerogenic risk is mostly attributed to EC16-21 aromatic fraction. Both
the total non-cancerogenic risk (expressed as a hazard quotient) of 5.8, and cancerogenic
risk (expressed as an incremental excess lifetime cancer risk) of 11.7·104, notably exceed
safety target values of 1.0 and 1.0·10-6, respectively.
AB  - Značajno visok nivo zagađenja zemljišta ukupnim naftnim ugljovodonicima (TPH)
detektovan je na lokaciji železničkog čvora u gradu Nišu (Republika Srbija). Koncentracije
TPH u većini ispitivanih uzoraka zemljišta premašuju remedijacionu vrednost od 5000
mg/kg. Nivo kontaminacije se smanjuje duž trase železničkih šina, shodno udaljenosti od
benzinske pumpe. Dobijeni rezultati sugerišu značajnuulogu železničkog transporta u
zagađenju, a benzinska pumpa je identifikovana kao žarište zagađenja. Procena
zdravstvenog rizika od zagađenog zemljišta je urađena primenom TPH frakcionog pristupa.
Među šest alifatičnih i sedam aromatičnih frakcija ugljovodonika, najveći sadržaj TPH u
zemljištu izmeren je za alifatičnu frakciju EC16-C35. Ova frakcija uzrokuje najveći
pojedinačni nekancerogeni zdravstveni rizik, dok se kancerogeni rizik uglavnom pripisuje
aromatičnoj EC16-21 frakciji. Ukupni nekancerogeni rizik (izražen kao količnik opasnosti) od
5,8 i kancerogeni rizik (izražen kao inkrementalni višak rizika od kancera u celokupnom
životnom veku) od 11,7·104, znatno premašuju ciljne bezbedne vrednosti od 1,0, odnosno
1.0·10-6.

AB  - Mineral oil leaking from vehicles or released during accidents is an important source of soil and ground water
pollution. In the railway junction Niš (Serbia) total 90 soil samples polluted with mineral oil derivatives were
investigated. Field work at the railway Niš sites included the opening of soil profiles and soil sampling.
The aim of this work is the determination of petroleum hydrocarbons concentration in the soil samples and
the investigation of the bioremediation technique for treatment heavily contaminated soil. For determination of
petroleum hydrocarbons in the soil samples method of gas-chromatography was carried out.
On the basis of measured concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons in the soil it can be concluded that: Obtained
concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons in 60% of soil samples exceed the permissible values (5000 mg/kg).
The heavily contaminated soils, according the Regulation on the program of systematic monitoring of soil quality
indicators for assessing the risk of soil degradation and methodology for development of remediation programs,
Annex 3 (Official Gazette of RS, No.88 / 2010), must be treated using some of remediation technologies.
Between many types of phytoremediation of soil contaminated with mineral oils and their derivatives, the most
suitable are phytovolatalisation and phytostimulation. During phytovolatalisation plants (poplar, willow, aspen,
sorgum, and rye) absorb organic pollutants through the root, and then transported them to the leaves where the
reduced pollutants are released into the atmosphere. In the case of phytostimulation plants (mulberry, apple,
rye, Bermuda) secrete from the roots enzymes that stimulates the growth of bacteria in the soil. The increase in
microbial activity in soil promotes the degradation of pollutants. Bioremediation is performed by composting
the contaminated soil with addition of composting materials (straw, manure, sawdust, and shavings), moisture
components, oligotrophs and heterotrophs bacteria.
