The contamination of sediments by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been
widely spread for years due to human activities, imposing the research and development of …

Dredging of sediments is conducted worldwide to maintain harbours and water bodies. As a
result, large amounts of materials generated require proper management and could have …

Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are a valuable source of genetic information
for a better understanding of phylogenetic relationships. However, no mitogenome of any …

Removing bottom sediment from water reservoirs and rivers can, on the one hand, be an
effective method to restore lakes, and on the other—be used for plant production, ensuring …

Phytoremediation is a type of bioremediation process that involves the use of plants to

Improper use of chemical fertilizers has led to land degradation. Organic crops, which are
farmed using organic fertilizers to reduce the negative environmental effects, are considered …

Background The soil microbiota has a direct impact on plant development and other
metabolic systems, such as the degradation of organic matter and the availability of …

The present study was aimed at investigating the effects of different acids and pH
neutralizers applied to dredged marine sediment for the treatment of heavy metals, and the …

In the present experimental study, the co-valorization potential of marine sediments and
construction & demolition wastes (C&D wastes) through alkali activation is investigated …

We studied the effects of bottom sediments on the physical and chemical fertility of a sandy
soil, and on the biomass production and chemical composition of maize and field beans …
