Abstract

An important indicator of pollution is the bottom sediments of reservoirs and watercourses, where metals are strongly bound. Depending on the factors at the bottom of the reservoir, metals can be a secondary source of pollution of the water body. Therefore, developing methods to immobilise metals in bottom sediments is one of the priorities for caring for surface water quality.
