Assessing the mobility (in water) of pollutants in soils and sediments is a major challenge, both for monitoring sites (risks for humans and water resources), estimating treatment processes and studying the potential for recycling these materials. In this context, this work provides a comprehensive and educational overview of mobility tests for organic and inorganic pollutants and the associated calculation tools, followed by the creation of a 'toolbox' based on the implementation of a laboratory test campaign and the associated modelling tools. The key document in the study is the report containing methodological recommendations ("Task 4", 30 p.) to guide both contracting authorities and service providers in the choice, implementation and interpretation of mobility tests.
