Journal ArticleDOI
The use of chelating agents in the remediation of metal-contaminated soils: A review
TL;DR: This paper reviews current remediation technologies that use chelating agents for the mobilization and removal of potentially toxic metals from contaminated soils and the possible impact of abiotic and biotic soil factors on the toxicity of metals left after the washing of soil and enhanced phytoextraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
EDTA enhanced heavy metal phytoextraction: metal accumulation, leaching and toxicity
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of synthetic chelates such as ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) on the uptake of Pb, Zn and Cd by Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa), mobilization and leaching of heavy metals and the toxicity effects of EDTA additions on plants were examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethylenediaminedissuccinate as a new chelate for environmentally safe enhanced lead phytoextraction.
TL;DR: EDDS was also less toxic to soil fungi, as determined by phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis, and caused less stress to soil microorganisms, as indicated by the trans to cis PLFA ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induced phytoextraction/soil washing of lead using biodegradable chelate and permeable barriers.
Bostjan Kos,Domen Lestan +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that use of biodegradable chelate EDDS and permeable barriers may lead to environmentally safe induced Pb phytoextraction and in situ washing of Pb.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chelator induced phytoextraction and in situ soil washing of Cu.
Bostjan Kos,Domen Lestan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of 5 mmol kg(-1) soil addition of citric acid, ethylenediamine tetraacetate (EDTA), diethylenetriamine-pentaacetate, and [S,S]-stereoisomer of EDDS on phytoextraction of Cu from a vineyard soil with 162.6 mg kg(1) Cu.
