Removal of heavy metals from real mine tailings coupling electrokinetic soil flushing and Bioleaching

Acosta-Hernández I., Muñoz Morales M., Rodríguez Romero L., Villaseñor Camacho J., (Corresponding) Fernandez-Morales F.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
In the present work, polluted mine tailings from the abandoned Pb/Zn mine of San Quintín (Ciudad Real, Spain) have been treated by an innovative in-situ bioleaching process. Bioleaching uses the capacity of certain microorganisms of oxidizing iron and/or reduce sulphur which enhance the process of...Read more

The effects of plant biostimulant and mycorrhiza applications on industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) growth and phytoremediation performance

Karaviti T., Kotoula D., Georgiou P., (Corresponding) Papazoglou E.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is a fast-growing lignocellulosic crop suitable for the phytoremediation of heavy metals, radionuclides, and organic contaminants on polluted marginal lands. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of plant biostimulant and mycorrhiza...Read more
