This diploma thesis deals with the effect of compost on heavy metal (Cd, Pb, Zn) contaminated soil. There are theoretically discussed contaminations, their sources and their impact as well as remediation possibilities. Work validates the assumption that compost has a positive effect on mobility reduction of heavy metals and their bioavailability. Verification is performed by the pot experiment, where the indicator plant lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) has been grown on differently contaminated soils. When the experiment was finished, the lettuce biomass and soils were analysed. Detected concentrations of heavy metals have confirmed a positive effect on Cd and Pb immobilization. The immobilization of zinc was not affected by compost.
