My friend wants to study specific land. This land is contaminated with lots of thing.
What happen through history?
Truck full of waste water from a sewege from different industry has been poured in this land ( they dont have treatment plant to treat water before throw it) so they directly collecting sewege in these trucks and disposed the waste water.
This land I am sure their soil , plant and nearby well or ground water will be contaminted !
My questions:
1) how can I take soil samples?
Do I just collect soil with 1 cm depth every 10 meter x and y?
Is there some procedure that really reflect a scientific sample collection for the soil?
2) is the same thing with water ?
3) when I collect the soil , i am sure will be hubdered of organic compounds on it , the problem the chromatograms will have million of these how can i determine or say this land has x, y, z etc compound and their conc is this?
I am actually looking for methods in term of sample collection, preparation and techniques. Could you point paper that help me started?
Thanks
