RESUMO

Spent nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries and salts of nickel and cadmium were placed in two different columns of soil for a period of two years. A leaching solution was passed through them at ambient temperature in this period. The behavior of metals in each column was then evaluated. Under the conditions of the experiment, cadmium and nickel demonstrated the potential to contaminate and affect the natural cycles of soil. The disposal of Ni-Cd batteries directly to the soil also increased the concentration of nickel (349 mg kg-1) and cadmium (2890 mg kg-1), sometimes exceeding the intervention values defined in CONAMA resolution 420/09.
