Resumo(s)
At the interface between the atmosphere and the earth’s crust and
being the substrate for natural and agricultural ecosystems, the
soil is open to inputs of heavy metals from many sources. Pollution
of the biosphere with toxic metals has accelerated dramatically
since the beginning of the industrial revolution. In response to a
growing need to address environmental contamination, many remediation
technologies have been developed to treat contaminated
soil, mainly mechanically or physicochemically based remediation
methods, but more recently thermal and biological technologies
seem to call for the attention of the scientific community, remediation
project engineers and the general public. These techniques as
well as their application and viability for the remediation of heavy
metal contaminated soils is discussed.
