A Comparison of Different Remediation Technologies of Contaminated Agricultural Soils

Abstract

Soil contamination is a major threat to the sustainability of agricultural fields and the safety of food production. This paper presented the remediation techniques, including surface covering, encapsulation, thermal restoration, stabilization, solidification, phytoremediation, bioremediation, and combined remediation. Bioremediation, which uses microorganisms to break down contaminants, has gained popularity due to its low cost and minimal secondary pollution. In conclusion, remediation techniques for soil contamination in agricultural fields are essential for maintaining the environmental quality of agricultural products. By utilizing a combination of techniques, we can effectively remediate the soil and ensure the safety of food production.
