Soil contamination with heavy metals is a global problem, and these metals can reach the
food chain through uptake by plants, endangering human health. Among the metal …

Glass fiber and liquid-modified polyvinyl alcohol polymer (SH Polymer) are used to reinforce
granite residual soil. In this paper, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) tests and drop …

Titanium gypsum is a solid waste produced by sulphuric acid titanium dioxide producers
when they neutralise the waste acid with calcium method, and the annual emission is quite …

Tailings are one of the largest quantities of hazardous waste in the world, and their treatment
is difficult and expensive. In this work, a new, low-cost technique coupling microbially …

A novel scheme was proposed to prepare magnetic adsorbents by co-pyrolysis of titanium
gypsum (TiG) and agricultural biomass wastes for phosphate (P) recovery. Co-presence of …

The demand for sustainable ground improvement methods is rising as urban development
expands into areas with challenging soil conditions. Traditional approaches, mostly reliant …

Ecotoxicological studies on soil metal toxicity often rely on artificially contaminated soils. A
major difficulty in using soils contaminated by anthropogenic activities (eg, mining and …

Soil amendment effects on the mobility of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) have been hardly
investigated under snowmelt flooding conditions. This research quantifies and compares the …

Thermal conductivity of soil is the key factor affecting utilization efficiency of ground source
heat pumps (GSHPs). The microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) technology …

While zinc protects plants from copper in hydroponics, its behavior in soil remains unclear.
We investigated the potential of zinc sulfate to protect ryegrass from copper toxicity in …
