Experts confirm the slurry and marble as the best option to rehabilitate degraded areas.
They have stated this morning researchers and technicians to the external evaluation team of the European Commission reviewed today at the School of Agricultural Engineers UPCT the conclusions of the European project Mipolare.
According to the researchers, the results obtained in the rehabilitation of mining deposits of Santa Antoinette and Gorguel, the use of manure, pig manure, the residue of mud and marble using fitoestabilizadoras species is the best of the alternatives for recovering heavy metal contaminated areas.
Researchers Group Management, Use and Recovery of Soil and Water UPCT have shown that the reduction in heavy metals has been even higher than expected in the initial forecasts of the project, reducing their mobility by 90%.
The project will maintain its continuity in time, "as it has an environmental and cultural value two polluted areas of the municipality of Cartagena, providing them with scenic guided tours, to visitors," said Angel Face, and Maria Dolores Gomez, a researcher at the School Agronomists.
One of the commitments made to the European Commission is the dissemination and transfer of experience and knowledge generated at regional, national and European level through public information and manuals adapted to the different stakeholders.
The Mipolare project (reference LIFE09 / ES / 000439) began in 2010 and ended last June and aims to achieve a methodology for the environmental and landscape rehabilitation of degraded areas, known as assisted phytostabilization.
In this research project they have involved the general direction of Industrial Energy and Mining Activity and Murcia, the Directorate General of Quality and Environmental Assessment, the Marble Technology Center, Portman Golf and the Polytechnic University of Cartagena.
