contents A pot experiment was conducted to determine the effects of three biochars and compost on plant growth and the immobilisation of Cu in a contaminated soil obtained from a former wood preservation site in the Gironde County Saint Médard d'Eyrans, France (N 44° 43.353, W 0° 30.938). To assess Cu mobility, amended soils were analysed using CaCl**2 leaching tests pre- and post-incubation, and post-growth. Amended and unamended soils were planted with sunflower, and the resulting plant material was assessed for yield (mass and height) and Cu concentration. All amendments significantly reduced leachable Cu compared to the unamended soil, however, the greatest reductions in leachable Cu were associated with the higher biochar application rate. The greatest improvements in plant yields were obtained with the higher application rate of biochar in combination with compost. pH, DOC, EH were measured in soils to help explain the leaching and plant growth trends. Soil pore water was collected during plant growth and analysed for metal concentration, pH and EH. Prior to treatment, background analyses were carried out on the soil and individual amendments (including PAH + metal concentrations measured by gas chromatography mass spectrometry and ICP-AES respectively).
