Nordiczero

Pilot project / Deje / Värmland

DDT stabilisation
in former nursery soil.

Nordiczero is supplying biochar for a pilot project at a former forest seedling field in Deje. The Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU) is leading the project, in close collaboration with the Swedish Geotechnical Institute (SGI).

  1. 01
    Challenge

    DDT and its breakdown products are present in the topsoil.

  2. 02
    Pilot trial

    Two methods of applying Nordiczero's biochar are being compared.

  3. 03
    Objective

    Increase DDT binding without compromising the soil's other properties.

Ongoing project

The pilot trial will inform future in-situ soil remediation at former forest nurseries.

Biochar as a soil sorbent

Biochar can reduce the mobility, spread and bioavailability of DDT by retaining it within the soil matrix.
