How to Use This Calculator

Enter the treatment area dimensions (length, width, depth in meters) to define the contaminated zone.
Set the soil bulk density (default 1.5 t/m³) and contaminant concentration in mg/kg.
Enter the carbon fraction of your contaminant (diesel ~0.87, PAHs ~0.9) to size nutrient demand.
Input your fertilizer grades (%N and %P) to convert nutrient needs into product quantities.
Review soil volume, contaminant mass, and fertilizer application rates (kg/m²) to plan amendments.
