Land treatment has become an essential waste management practice. Therefore, soil
becomes a major source of contaminants including organic chemicals and potentially toxic …

Unlike organic contaminants, metal (loid) s do not undergo microbial or chemical
degradation and persist for a long time after their introduction. Bioavailability of metal (loid) s …

Heavy metals are among the most important sorts of contaminant in the environment.
Several methods already used to clean up the environment from these kinds of …

Biogeochemical behavior of lead (Pb), a persistent hazardous pollutant of environmental
concern, strongly depends on its chemical speciation. Therefore, in this review, link between …

Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal that is of great concern in the environment, because of its
toxicity to animals and humans. This article reviews recent papers showing how soil factors …

The low-cost, plant-based phytoextraction technique has often been described as a
promising technique to remediate heavy metal contaminated agricultural land. The …

Purpose Many agricultural and brownfield soils are polluted and more have become
marginalised due to the introduction of new, risk-based legislation. The European …

Aims: As a toxic metal, cadmium (Cd) affects microbial and plant metabolic processes,
thereby potentially reducing the efficiency of microbe or plant‐mediated remediation of Cd …

Chemically enhanced phytoextraction has been proposed as an effective approach to
removing heavy metals from contaminated soil through the use of high biomass plants …

Phytoremediation is an in situ, cost-effective potential strategy for cleanup of sites
