Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation Techniques for the Remediation of Heavy Metal and Trace Element–Polluted Soils and Water

“…A number of techniques for remediation of metal-contaminated sites and waters include soil washing (Mao et al, 2016a), physical separation, stabilization, bioremediation/phytoremediation (Han & Singer, 2007;Han et al, 2004;Su et al, 2005Su et al, , 2007Su et al, , 2008Sridhar et al, 2005Sridhar et al, , 2007Shiyab et al, 2009), electric coupled phytoremediation (Mao et al, 2015(Mao et al, , 2016b(Mao et al, , 2018, etc. Natural materials such as humic substance and new nanomaterials were developed to remove heavy metals and radionuclides from water (Guo et al, 2015(Guo et al, , 2016(Guo et al, , 2018. Microbially induced carbonate precipitation as a relatively new phenomenon has been developed with potential applications Abstract Heavy metal pollution in soil and water has been of worldwide concern due to their biotoxicity/ecotoxicity in the ecosystem, accumulation in the food chain, and persistence in the environment.…”
