Hydrocarbon Contamination Artificially Inflates Soil Organic Carbon: Impacts on Risk Assessments of Contaminated Land in the UK

2026-06-24

Abstract excerpt

In the UK, contaminated land risk assessments using the Contaminated Land Exposure Assessment (CLEA) model rely on soil organic matter (SOM) values to determine acceptable thresholds for contamination caused by anthropogenic pollution for human health. Soil organic carbon (SOC), total organic carbon (TOC) or loss on ignition (LOI) are routinely used as a proxy for SOM in the industry, both by contaminated land con...
