Vol 11: Soil Pollution et Phytoremediation
Description
Soil pollution is le presence de any harmful liquid, solid or sludge material, chemical, substance or object en soil en high enough concentrations that may cause adverse effects to human health et ecosystem. Soil pollution mainly develops through man-made activities like accidental spill et leakage de chemicals; foundry, manufacturing, mining, construction, agriculture et transportation activities et dumping de household, medical et industrial wastes en landfills leading to groundwater contamination et generation de toxic gases. Everyone including humans, plants, animals et ecosystem coming en close contact avec contaminated soil is susceptible to soil pollution. Un number de en situ et ex situ techniques has been developed to decontaminate polluted soils. These methods include removal de contaminated soil et deposit it en landfills or to incinerate it. Various soil washing techniques have been developed pour removal de heavy metals including physical et chemical methods. However, none de these methods is ideal pour remediating contaminated soils et often, more than one method is applied to get le desired result. Phytoremediation is a latest alternate technology developed pour treatment de soil contaminated avec organic et inorganic contaminants. Phytoremediation makes use de living green plants et associated soil microbes pour en situ removal, reduction or containment de toxic effects or concentrations de range de contaminants including metals, pesticides, solvents, explosives, crude oil, polyaromatic hydrocarbons et landfill leachates en soils, sludges, sediments, surface water et groundwater. With le above background, le topics covered en this volume include: • Soil pollution et phytoremediation • Major sources et types de soil pollutants • Study de factors et environmental monitoring de urban soils contamination • Effect de soil amendments sur le mobility et availability de potentially toxic trace elements en phytoremediated contaminated soils • Behaviour de heavy metals en soils-distribution et interaction avec soil constituents • Un overview de phytoremediation • Phytoremediation de heavy metals by catharanthus roseus linn • Phytoremediation et bioremediation de contaminated soils • Phytoremediation pour soil health improvement • Phytoremediation de abandoned mining areas using native plant species • Electrokinetic et electrochemical remediation de contaminated soils • Levels assessment et origin study de PAHs en organisms et sediments • Adsorption de heavy metal cations sur bentonite et bentonite/iron oxide composite • Behaviour de flazasulfuron et tribenuron-methyl sur soil biology • Phytoremediation et bioremediation de Pb, Cu, Hg, Cd, Ni et Zn • Eco-friendly techniques pour heavy metal toxicity removal from polluted soil et water Le present volume contains 16 articles from 48 researchers, academicians et professionals representing 12 nations, namely Bulgaria, China, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Inde, Italy, Morocco, Russia, Slovak, Spain et Syria giving an overview de le various research activities being taken en different parts de le world sur Soil Pollution et Phytoremediation.
