RESEARCH ON PROGRESS IN COMBINED REMEDIATION TECHNOLOGIES OF HEAVY METAL POLLUTED SEDIMENT
Zhang, M., X. Wang, L. Yang, and Y. Chu.
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health 16:5098(2019)

Combined remediation technologies have attracted widespread attention for their unique advantages to remediate heavy metals in sediments. This article introduces combined remediation technologies based on physical-, chemical-, and bio-remediation of heavy metal polluted sediments. It summarizes research progress in physical-chemical, bio-chemical, and inter-organism (including plants, animals, microorganisms) remediation of heavy metal polluted sediments. It also analyzes problems of the process of combined remediation of heavy metals in river sediments and outlooks the future development trends of remediation technologies. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6950138/pdf/ijerph-16-05098.pdf
