Abstract:
... PURPOSE: The evaluation of the ecotoxicity effects of some heavy metals on the plant growth and metal accumulation in Ocimum basilicum L. cultivated on unpolluted and polluted soils represented the objective of the present study. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The basil aromatic herb was evaluated in a laboratory experiment using soil contaminated with Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn, similar to the one fr ...

Abstract:
... PURPOSE: This paper focuses on determining the geochemical fractionation pattern of trace elements (As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Tl, and Zn) naturally occurring at elevated levels in chestnut grove soils of SW Spain. The goal was to explore how environmental changes triggered by land use and management decisions might affect the resilience and adaptive capacity of soil to retain geogenic trace elements. MATERI ...

Abstract:
... PURPOSE: Mine and smelter soil contaminations with Pb, Cu, Cd, and Zn have become serious problems in China, because of anthropogenic activities. Little is known about the efficacy of residual lime (RL) single and integrated with residual Ca-bentonite (RCB), residual tobacco biochar (RTB), and residual zeolite (RZ) on the stability of toxic metals and reduces their uptake by corn after harvesting ...

Ascomycota; Basidiomycota; bioaugmentation; chemical bonding; decontamination; fungal growth; heavy metals; landfills; lead; monitoring; nickel; physicochemical properties; polluted soils; public health; soil pollution; zinc
Abstract:
... PURPOSE: Heavy metals’ contamination of soil is a serious concern as far as public health and environmental protection are concerned. As a result of their persistent and toxic properties, heavy metals need to be removed from contaminated environments using an efficient technology. This study is aimed to determine the heavy metals’ (Ni, Pb, and Zn) bioremoval capacity of consortia of filamentous fu ...

Abstract:
... PURPOSE: Tannery waste–contaminated soil has a high amount of several toxic chemicals and heavy metals including chromium (Cr), which makes it unsuitable for agriculture practices. Majority of studies have reported the use of biochar (BC) as an amendment to restore contaminated soil. The efficiency of BC to immobilize Cr depends on its pretreatment and feedstock. This study aimed to investigate th ...
