Contamination and remediation of phthalic acid esters in agricultural soils in China: a review

Abstract: Phthalic acid esters have been used as plasticizers in numerous products and classified as endocrine-disrupting compounds. As China is one of the largest consumers of phthalic acid esters, some human activities may lead to the accumulation of phthalic acid esters in soil and result in contamination. Therefore, it is necessary for us to understand the current contamination status and to identify appropriate remediation technologies. Here, we reviewed the potential sources, distribution, and contamination status… Show more

“…It may also be used to remediate contaminated soil [10][11][12] or sequester carbon [13,14]. The processing method and pyrolysis temperature are the decisive elements affecting biochar yield, but chemical and physical properties of the feedstock cannot be ignored [15,16].…”

“…Moreover, PAEs can exist in the soil for a long time and can pass to crops and enter into food chains, posing a risk to environmental and human health [6]. The main sources of PAEs in agricultural soil-plant systems are plastic films (e.g., greenhouse films, mulching film), wastewater irrigation, sewage sludge, and atmospheric (wet and dry) deposition [7][8][9][10].…”
