Remediation of mercury-polluted soils using artificial wetlands

摘要: ABSTRACTMexico's mercury mining industry is important for economic development, but has unfortunately contaminated soils due to open-air disposal. This case was seen at two sites in the municipality of Pinal de Amoles, State Queretaro, Mexico. paper presents an evaluation dynamics and biogeochemistry (mining waste soil) using ex-situ wetlands over 36 weeks. In sampled former mines initial concentrations were 424 ± 29 433 12 mg kg−1 La Lorena San Jose, mines, respectively. Typha latifolia Phragmites australis used 20 reactors constructed (with without plants). The weekly amended with a nutrient solution (NPK), each plant, pH 5.0. For remediation from Jose 70–78% removed T. 76–82% P. reactors, Lorena, content reduced by 55–71% 58...
