520 |a Beneficial Elements for Remediation of Heavy Metals in Polluted Soils provides readers with comprehensive information on soil pollution and beneficial elements. Each chapter summarizes the beneficial elements interaction in soil and its impact on the environment. In addition, the book covers many current environmental issues, such as pollution and monitoring of various heavy metals, organic pollutants, and environmental hormones such as pesticides. The book goes a step further by offering information on substances that have been recently confirmed and suspected to be carcinogenic, chromogenic, and transtoxic. Toxicological issues such as the type and condition of the pollutants, toxicity, mechanism of action and influencing factors, metabolic processes in vivo, and toxic damage manifestations are also addressed.
