Environmental Restoration of Metals-Contaminated Soils

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
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. It 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. It describes the physical-chemical processes for in situ remediation and covers the importance of environmental conditions and physical, chemical, and biological processes as factors that affect the fate of metals in soil.
