Contaminated sites

In Drösing west of the train station there was the Drösing petroleum refinery from 1899 to 1937, which produced, among other things, kerosene, mineral spirits, light, medium and heavy petroleum as well as petroleum. Mineral oil contamination was found on a large part of the former company premises, the underground area heavily contaminated with mineral oil being estimated at around 55,000 m² and around 100,000 m³. Acidic, highly viscous mineral oil hydrocarbons that were produced as waste during production were not broken down and used in further processes, but ended up in an acid tar pit that held 2,000 m³ by the end of the production period. Since the spread of pollutants in the groundwater is currently low, no significant pollutant emissions into the groundwater runoff are to be expected in the future either. However, the heavily polluted area of ​​the acid tar pit poses a significant threat to the environment.
