Journal ArticleDOI
Advanced technologies for the remediation of pesticide-contaminated soils
TL;DR: In most cases, emerging technologies, such as those based on oxidation-reduction or bioremediation, may be incorporated into existing technologies to improve their performance or overcome limitations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil pollution by PAHs in urban soils: a comparison of three European cities

TL;DR: Pyrogenic origins, especially motor vehicle exhausts, are suggested to be the major sources of PAHs in urban soils of the three cities, with the largest concentrations found in sites close to the historic quarters of the cities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization and Sources of PAHs and Potentially Toxic Metals in Urban Environments of Sevilla (Southern Spain)
TL;DR: In this paper, the degree of PAH contamination and the association of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with metals in urban soil samples from Sevilla (Spain) were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behaviour of glyphosate in a reservoir and the surrounding agricultural soils.
TL;DR: The rapid degradation of GPS in surface waters and its practically irreversible sorption on these soils and sediments implies that GPS use in similar agricultural areas is of very low environmental risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Priority pesticides and their degradation products in river sediments from Portugal.
Jaime Villaverde,Alain Hildebrandt,Elena Martínez,Silvia Lacorte,Esmeralda Morillo,Celia Maqueda,Paula Viana,Damià Barceló +7 more
TL;DR: A multiresidue gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method was developed to determine 28 priority pesticides of different chemical families together with some of their transformation products in river sediment collected in Portugal, with acceptable recoveries for the pesticides under study.
