      ABSTRACT

      Written by a multidisciplinary group of scientists from around the globe Environmental Restoration of Metals-Contaminated Soils provides a summary of the current environmental remediation technology.
      Topics include:

    • Physical-Chemical processes for in situ remediation by adding amendments for stabilization
    • The mechanics of metal retention and release from soils
    • Chemical remediation method for soil contaminated with CD and Pb
    • The effect of soil pH on the distribution of metals among soil fractions
    • Physical and electrical separation methods for soil remediation
    • Relationship between the phytoavailability and the extractability of heavy metals
    • An overview on environmental restoration of Se-contaminated soils
    • Trace elements in the soil-plant system under tropical environment
    • The process of metal removal by chelation using amino acids
    • The effects of natural zeolelite and bentonite on the phytoavailability of heavy metals
    • Metal uptake by agricultural crops from sewage-sludge treated soils
      In many cases an integrated approach to the remediation of metals contaminated soil yields the best results. Environmental Restoration of Metals-Contaminated Soils explores the emerging issues of the biogeochemistry of trace elements in the environment and provides an approach combining elements from biology, geochemistry, hydrology, and soil physics and chemistry.
