Abstract

Data on biogenic and toxic elements in roadside ecosystems of urbanized territories and on the intensity of release of carbon dioxide by micro biota in soils of various biogenicity are presented. Characteristics of toxigenicity of soils and arboreal vegetable residues of green plantations in terms of toxic chemical element content, content of sanitary representative bacteria, and phytotoxicity are given. Inhibition of landscaping plants - clover, meadow grass, phacelia - is compared with respect to germination energy, growth of roots and shoots on composted arboreal vegetable farm wastes. Choice of technologies of aerobic decomposition of municipal refuses for improvement of urban soils is offered.
