Abstract: | Summary Barley and cabbage plants grown in the greenhouse on soils amended with refuse incinerator fly ash contained significantly elevated levels of Cd, Pb and Se, with Cd uptake being greatest in both plant species. Cabbage grown on 20% ash amended soil contained 146 times more Cd than controls. Cadmium and Se appeared to be less available in a successive barley crop after overwintering the pots of soil outside, but elemental concentrations still remained elevated. Comparisons with data from other studies indicated that Cd availability was greater from refuse fly ash than from sewage sludge. |
