Soil Pollution is a condition in which various harmful substances are mixed into the soil according to industry and production activities, and various plants such as agricultural products absorb harmful substances. phenomenon can be defined.

Such soil pollution is characterized by indirect, chronic, and difficult to improve or restore. In other words, if the soil is contaminated, it causes contamination of soil organisms and groundwater living in the soil, which indirectly affects humans by damaging them. In addition, rather than acute damage, it has a chronic effect that accumulates over a long period of time and causes damage. In addition, soil pollution, like most environmental pollution, is difficult to improve once it is polluted, and in particular, requires much longer time and a lot of economic investment compared to air or water quality.

On the other hand, in order to understand the pollution status of water systems such as rivers and lakes and to establish purification measures based on this, it is necessary to collect the sediment accumulated in these rivers and lakes to check various pollution indicators.

In order to check the level of soil contamination or sediment contamination described above, samples are collected in the area, in which case a plastic container is usually used. However, if the sample is stored for a long time, the sample is pressed to the inner wall of the container and does not fall off easily, so it is frequently necessary to dispose of it as waste.
