Abstract: Because of the potentially high metal concentrations found in soils immediately adjacent to chromated copper arsenate (CCA)-treated wood structures and utility poles, CCA-contaminated soil ingestion may be a significant ...

Abstract: The ex situ remediation of heavy metals-contaminated industrial sludge (pH = 10.35, Zn = 3,500 mg/kg) by electroreclamation (I = 2.5 A) was studied at pilot scale (42.5 kg of sludge). This research focused on acidification ...

Abstract: Recently, microbial leaching of heavy metals from contaminated soils with indigenous iron-oxidizing microflora has been successfully applied in flask experiments. However, the long hydraulic residence time (HRT) required ...
