Heavy metals are widespread toxic environmental pollutants that can generate enormous
health and public concern. Iron (oxyhydr) oxides are ubiquitous in both natural and …

Heavy metal (HM) contamination is a serious concern across the globe, and in recent times,
HMs' intensity has significantly increased, posing a serious threat to crop growth and …

Iron (oxyhydr) oxides participate in a variety of geochemical processes, and hence control
the cycling of elements and quality of soils. The present work provides information about the …

As consequence of the dual demands for pollution control and carbon (C) fixation in soils, Fe
(II)-catalyzed mineral transformation may be a promising method to simultaneously …

Zinc (Zn) deficiency constrains crop yield and quality, but soil factors influencing Zn
availability to plants and reactions of applied Zn fertilizer are not fully understood. This work …

It has been widely believed that the adsorption mechanism of cadmium on iron (oxyhydr)
oxide is solely the inner-sphere complexation based on extended X-ray absorption fine …

Zinc deficiency is an extended agronomic problem, particularly in staple food crops such as
cereals. The availability of Zn to plants is ruled by soil properties, biological factors in the …

Iron (hydr) oxides and their association with organic matter significantly affect the mobility of
heavy metals in natural soils and sediments. However, the behavior of cadmium (Cd) during …

Tobacco is a super-enriched plant for heavy metals, and its productivity is sensitively
affected by Cd. In this study, tobacco stalk was converted to biochar (TS-biochar) for the …

Despite extensive study, geochemical modeling often fails to accurately predict lead (Pb)
immobilization in environmental samples. This study employs the Charge Distribution MUlti …
