Cadmium (Cd) is a major environmental contaminant due to its widespread industrial use.
Cd contamination of soil and water is rather classical but has emerged as a recent problem …

The low nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of fertilizers and aluminum toxicity are major limiting
factors for crop development in red soil (acidic soil) of China. Biochar is a promising material …

Biochar or pyrogenic carbon, obtained from the thermo‐chemical conversion of biomass in
an anaerobic or oxygen‐limited environment, has been in use in agriculture perhaps as far …

Heavy metals (HMs) in soil and water bodies greatly threaten human health. The wide
separation of HMs urges the necessity to develop an expert system for HMs prediction and …

Excessive copper (Cu) concentrations pose significant health risks to both plants and
humans. In this study, sodium alginate (SA)-gelatin (GEL)-polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) …

The physiological mechanisms and phytoremediation effects of three kinds of native quinoa
in a desert mining area were studied. We used two different types of local soils (native soil …

Anthropogenic activities have deteriorated the quality of soil all across the globe. It becomes
extensively essential to improve the soil quality to support various life systems and sustain …

Biochar amendments have shown great superiority in reduction of heavy metals (HM)
toxicity and soil amelioration in severely contaminated mining areas, which suggested to …

Metal (loid) soil pollution is an important issue in Europe, as it induces health and
environmental problems. Phytoremediation processes have been put into place in order to …

Many years ago, widespread and ineffective technologies led to significant ecological
contamination, primarily due to heavy metals (HMs), particularly lead (Pb) and cadmium …
