Aims IBRACS
• The overall aim of IBRACS is toprovide policymakers, other authorities and service providers with guidelines on how chemical bioavailability testscan be used in site specific risk assessments.
• To improve accuracy in risk assessments giving more reliable decisions on how much soil that needs to be remediated.
• To open up for management options based on immobilization of contaminants (reducing bioavailability).
• Probably more cost effective site management
Why account for bioavailability?
WP1. Project management
WP3. Comparison of existing risk assessment models for soil with focus on bioavailability
WP4. Ecotoxicity and bioavailability testing
WP5. Uptake of contaminants by plants
WP2. Dissemination and Exploitation
WP6. Application of frameworks on some contaminated sites – cost benefit analysis
WP6. Incorporating soil chemical tests in site specific risk assessment frameworks

Results
Recommended approach for site specific ERA -
PAHs
The theory behind the method -equilibrium partition theory
Cell membrane
Soil organic matter
Mineral
Pore water
KTOCKLIPID
key parameter!
Method for porewater determination of PAHs – equilibration with polyoxymethylene membrane (POM)
Simple and cheap method!
a) 10 g soil + POM + 35 ml 0.001 M CaCl2 + 0.015 NaN3 (biocide).
b) Shake for 28 days
c) Extract POM (aceton/hexan)
d) Cpw = CPOM/ KPOM
Cpw = pore water concentrationCPOM = POM concentrationKPOM = POM-partitioning coefficient
Arp et al., 2014
Biouptake experiments with Enchytraeus crypticus (4 weeks exposure, 22 soils)
Results indicate equilibrium between soil, porewater and worms

Proposed procedure for site specific ERA
Measuring bioavailable
concentration with POM
Relate to risk limits, e.g.
RIVM’s MPC or SRC values
Assume additive effect and
calculate toxic unit (TU) value
TU >1 = risk TU <1 = no risk
Derive porewater
concentration in µg L-1
An Excel based TU calculator, plus instructions, can be downloaded from IBRACS home page http://projects.swedgeo.se/ibracs/
The procedure is in line with recommendations from RIVM (Brand et al., 2013)
Assessing plant uptake of PAHs by chemical methods
Plant uptake of PAHs by Zea mays (5 weeks growth, 14 soils)
Uptake cannot be desribed as a simple partitioning → POM method does not work
Root uptake
•Implementation of methods that determine pore water concentration in risk assessments would not improve predictions of PAH uptake by plants
•Existing models for soil/plant transfer of PAHs should be reconsidered (e.g. Briggs et al.,1982)
•If intake of plants is an important exposure pathway for humans, uptake experiments are recommended to be used in site specifid risk assessments
Conclusions and recommendation
Recommended approach for site specific ERA -
metals
• The approach is based on the concepts in the Excel based program SOIL PNEC calculator .
• SOIL PNEC calculator is based on results from the EU REACH testing protocol for metal ecotoxicity (Zn, Cu, Ni, Co, Pb) using spiked soils.
• Two factors are affecting bioavailability:1. Soil properties (CEC, pH)2. Leaching-ageing factor (dafault, metal specific)
Smolders et al. , 2009
Plant toxicity experiments with 10 historically contaminated soils
1. Bioavailability of Zn and Cu in spiked and field contaminated soils was assessed in plant toxicity experiments
2. Isotopic dilution using a stable isotope technique was applied on field contaminated soils

Isotopic dilution(labile / total)
The isotopic dilution method can be used to determine site specific leaching-ageing factors
A version of SOIL PNEC calculator with option to add a site specific leaching-ageing factors can be downloaded from http://www.arche-consulting.be/metal-csa-toolbox/soil-pnec-calculator/
