Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThermodynamic Modeling and Heat-Moisture Transfer Characteristic Analysis of in Situ Thermal Desorption System for Polluted SoilHuijuan Xu, Yanjun Bi, Lijun Gao, Dongxiao MaIn Situ Gas Thermal Desorption (ISGTD) is one of the effective approaches for organic contaminated soil. To investigate the heat-moisture transfer characteristics of soil during the heating process, a radially layered coupled heat-moisture model of the ISGTD system is established. The temperature and moisture distribution along the radial direction of the heat source, as well as the synergistic action of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2024 · 4,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhytoremedial Potential of Tagetes Erecta Under Mycorrhizal Inoculation in Heavy Metal Polluted SoilI.O. Aina, F.L. Amusa, A.D. Olasupo et al.Investigation of the growth of Tagetes erecta under different levels of contamination of Copper (Cu) and Lead (Pb) in the soil and effects of mycorrhizal species (Glomus mosseae) on Cu and Pb to identify hyperaccumulator plants in tropical environment that could be used in remediation of heavy metal from contaminated soils. It was a greenhouse experiment consisted of factorial combination … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 28 Oct 2019 · 7,471 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhytomanagement of Heavy Metal Lead by Fodder Grass Lasiurus scindicus in Polluted Soil and Water of Dravyawati RiverParul Sharma, Sonali PandeySoil and water pollution with heavy metals is a worldwide issue and is still unresolved. Phytoremediation is a new and rising technology that applies plants for cleanup lightly contaminated soils and water. Lasiurus scindicus have been chosen in this work for decontaminating soil and water from heavy metal (lead). This plant was grown in contaminated soil and water over a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,725 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUtilization of Banana, Pineapple and Watermelon Wastes-Substrate: As Consortiums to Remediating Cyanide Polluted SoilFlorence Obiageli Nduka, Samuel Chibuike Ubani, Victor Eshu Okpashi et al.The act of processing cassava for varied food products has come with unguided and wide-spread contamination of cyanide in the environment. The need for effective reduction in cost to enable remediation of cyanide-contaminated sites from cassava mill factories is the purpose of this investigation. This involves bio-stimulation of organic wastes with indigenous microorganisms to degrade cyanide. The application of organic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2018 · 9,930 accessesView PDFCite
