Pollutants are omnipresent in soils. They originate from industry, agriculture, traffic and private households, for example, but also from natural sources. If pollutants accumulate in the soil, they can pose a risk to humans and the environment.

However, pharmaceuticals need to be used sparingly and with due care, for their positive effects also entail human and environmental risks and collateral effects.
