Abstract

In the area of transport infrastructures, spontaneous vegetation is exposed to a considerable safety risk and combated by chemical or mechanical means [1]. Glyphosate is one of the most widely used agents worldwide. Glyphosate is harmful to the environment and to health; As a result, alternative and environmentally friendly solutions are being researched in many places [2]. As part of the research project Green Logix of the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences, an analysis of the plant growth with different rock materials and recycling products was carried out [4]. For this purpose, test boxes with different rock materials - different types of track ballast and recycled products - were filled and observed. The germination and growth behavior of the emerging plants on the different substrates was systematically documented. The analysis of plant growth in connection with different rock materials and recycling products with different test arrangements (exposures, contaminations with organic components) is the main objective of this research paper.
