Abstract
Addition of OMW to a soil causes a significant decrease in adsorption and a higher desorbability of Cu and Zn, while Cd is adsorbed to a gre ater extent and is less easily desorbed. These effects are due to chan ges in pH and do not seem to be related with intrinsic changes in the equilibria involved. Therefore in well buffered soils OMW is not likel y to cause harmful increases in mobility of these metals.
