Ground Water and Soil Pollution Remediation - Alex Borde - Bog

Human activities have generated a significant amount of waste materials and by-products over time, which have often been carelessly used, disposed of, or stored in ways that lead to contamination of soil and groundwater. This contamination can pose serious health risks, including diseases such as hepatitis, dysentery, and cancer, and even poisoning. As a result, remediation of contaminated soil and water is essential. This book offers a range of soil and water treatment technologies that have been developed in response to global soil and water pollution. The book features contributions from scientists from around the world, highlighting new research and design approaches aimed at preserving the sustainability of groundwater, which is a critical resource under constant threat from solid waste disposal.
