The application of sewage sludge with biochar as fertilizer may be a new method improves soil properties. Biochar increases of the crops productivity and reduction of bioavailability of contaminants. In the present study the persistence of sum of 16 (Σ16) PAHs (US EPA 16 PAHs) in a sewage sludge-amended soil (11 t/h) and in a sewage sludge-amended soil with the addition of biochar (at a rate of 2.5, 5 or 10% of sewage sludge (dry weight basis)) was determined. This study was carried out as a plot experiment over a period of 18 months. Samples for analysis were taken at the beginning of the study and after 6, 12 and 18 months from the beginning of the experiment. Application of sewage sludge as a soil amendment did not cause a significant change (P ≥ 0.05) in the soil content of Σ16 PAHs. In turn, the addition of biochar with sewage sludge to the soil, regardless of the contribution of biochar in the sewage sludge, resulted in a significant decrease in PAH content already at the beginning of the experiment. Throughout the experiment, in all treatments the PAH content varied, predominantly showing a decreasing trend. Ultimately, after 18 months the content of Σ16 PAHs decreased by 19% in the experiment with sewage sludge alone and by 45, 35 and 28% in the experiment with sewage sludge and the 2.5%, 5.0% and 10% biochar rates, respectively. After 18 months of the study, the largest losses in the sewage sludge-amended soil were observed for 2- and 3-ring PAHs. In the sewage sludge- and biochar-amended soil, compared to the beginning of the study and the sewage sludge-amended soil, the highest losses were found for 5- and 6-ring PAHs (2.5 and 5.0% rates) as well as for 5- and 2-ring PAHs (10% rate).
