Description
Written by a multidisciplinary group of scientists from around the globe Environmental Restoration of Metals-Contaminated Soils provides a summary of the current environmental remediation technology.
Topics include:
Physical-Chemical processes for in situ remediation by adding amendments for stabilization
The mechanics of metal retention and release from soils
Chemical remediation method for soil contaminated with CD and Pb
The effect of soil pH on the distribution of metals among soil fractions
Physical and electrical separation methods for soil remediation
Relationship between the phytoavailability and the extractability of heavy metals
An overview on environmental restoration of Se-contaminated soils
Trace elements in the soil-plant system under tropical environment
The process of metal removal by chelation using amino acids
The effects of natural zeolelite and bentonite on the phytoavailability of heavy metals
Metal uptake by agricultural crops from sewage-sludge treated soils
In many cases an integrated approach to the remediation of metals contaminated soil yields the best results. Environmental Restoration of Metals-Contaminated Soils explores the emerging issues of the biogeochemistry of trace elements in the environment and provides an approach combining elements from biology, geochemistry, hydrology, and soil physics and chemistry.
