Studies and Research on Soil Analysis in a Derelict Area, where there Was a Landfill

In this paper, a study was made regarding the quality of the soil, from a disused area, where there was a garbage dump, which operated illegally. Soil samples were taken from different depths, namely 10, 20, and 30 cm deep, from 3 areas, covering the entire area where was the landfill. In the soil samples taken, the proportion of heavy metals and the pH were determined, thus being able to highlight how the quality of the soil was affected.
