The aim of presented study was to determine the influence of long-term inundation on the changes in the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Two soils (B, MS) with differentiated properties were selected for the presented study. The experiment was carried out in 5-l containers, irrigated with distilled or post-sewage water for seven days. The study samples were collected directly after the water had been drained and then after seven, 14, 28 and 50 days. In the material collected, the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was determined by means of the HPLC-UV method. The soils used for the presented experiment were characterised by differentiated PAH content levels. However, in both soils 28 days after water had been drained, a gradual increase of the PAH sum was noted. This increase was in relation to beginning of the experiment significantly higher in soil MS characterised by a lower PAH content (43% and 86%, respectively in the experiment with distilled and post-sewage water). The range of the PAH sum increase in soil B was from 28% to 38%. After the 28th day of the experiment, a decreasing trend was noted. The trend persisted until the last experimental date. Only in soil B, a decrease in the PAH up to a level close to the PAH level on the onset of the experiment was observed. In soil MS, PAH content on the last experimental date was still 25% (distilled water) and 52% (post-sewage water) higher than at the beginning of the experiment. In control soils (non-flooded), PAH content did not undergo any significant changes during the whole experimental period. In the presented studies, significant relationships between the values of some PAH content levels and Ca²⁺ ions content was noted.
