Abstract Arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) are potentially toxic elements capable of developing
several diseases in human beings such as cancer. Several adsorbent materials, including …

Globally, tons of soils and sediments are experiencing degradation due to the presence of
high concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs), such as arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) …

Soil contamination by potentially toxic elements (PTEs) is one of the greatest threats to
environmental degradation. Knowing where PTEs accumulated in soil can mitigate their …
