“…However, the United States places greater emphasis on technological innovation, particularly in the fields of biological and chemical cleanup. This approach frequently employs organisms, such as bacteria or plants, that degrade, eliminate, or immobilize contaminants in the soil [11]. The budget allocation for soil pollution control in the United States is comparatively higher in terms of cost [12].…”

Soil pollution is a significant worldwide issue that has adverse effects on food security, public health, and environmental sustainability. The paper aims to examine additional research on assessing the extent of soil contamination, identifying its origins, and evaluating the efficacy of regulatory and technical solutions in addressing this issue. This study examines the soil pollution regulations of China and compares them to those of the United States. It purposes to identify areas where both countries are moving towards sustainable soil management by reducing sources of pollution. This study will utilize a literature analysis to examine the historical background, effectiveness, and diverse factors associated with economic development and environmental conservation programs. Both countries have built risk-based control systems that adhere to the polluter pays principle and comply with internationally recognized standards. The paper identifies the difficulties in putting the regulations into practice and suggests that future research should focus on doing comparative assessments with other nations, evaluating the effectiveness of the implementation process, and exploring technical advancements for soil remediation. This comparative analysis highlights the significance of soil pollution reduction and efficient management strategies, since they hold global significance.
