Environmental and economic implications linked with the proper ecofriendly disposal of
modern day wastes, has made it essential to come up with alternative waste management …

Presence of heavy metals in the wastewater sludge has greatly hindered sludge land
application. Bioleaching has been developed for heavy metal removal from sludge. The pH …

Sewage sludge is an effective fertilizer in many soil types. When applied as an amendment,
sludge introduces, in addition to organic matter, plant nutrients into the soil. When applied …

The current study aimed at evaluating the effects of different sewage sludge (SS)
amendment rates as biofertilizers on growth of Corchorus olitorius plants and soil properties …

Heavy metal composite pollution is widespread in the surrounding environment of tailings
ponds in arid and semi-arid regions, leading to the abandonment of substantial agricultural …

The adoption of sewage sludge as an agricultural management strategy to improve soil
properties and crop production is attracting great interest. Despite many positive effects on …

Microorganisms isolated from contaminated areas play an important role in bioremediation
processes. They promote heavy metal removal from the environment by adsorbing ions onto …

The broader reuse of sewage sludge as a soil fertilizer or conditioner is impeded by the
presence of toxic metals. Bioleaching, a process that leverages microbial metabolisms and …

The removal and chemical speciation changes of heavy metals in the sewage sludge during
the single bioleaching and combined bioleaching/Fenton-like processes were compared in …

The present study was undertaken with an objective to evaluate the effect of different soil-
based and soilless growing media compositions supplemented with treated municipal …
