Ecosystem services provided by soils of urban, industrial, traffic, mining, and military areas (SUITMAs)
TL;DR: In this paper, a categorization of soils of urbanized areas, i.e., areas strongly affected by human activities, according to their ecosystem services, is proposed, and the characteristics and number of services provided by soil groups of urbanised areas and their importance are given for each soil group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agromining: farming for metals in the future?
Antony van der Ent,Antony van der Ent,Alan J. M. Baker,Alan J. M. Baker,Alan J. M. Baker,Roger D. Reeves,Rufus L. Chaney,Christopher Anderson,John A. Meech,Peter D. Erskine,Marie-Odile Simonnot,James Vaughan,Jean Louis Morel,Guillaume Echevarria,Bruno Fogliani,Qiu Rongliang,David Mulligan +16 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that "agromining" (a variant of phytomining) could provide local communities with an alternative type of agriculture on degraded lands; farming not for food crops, but for metals such as nickel, to build the case for the minerals industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term effects of biochar on soil heavy metal mobility are controlled by intra-particle diffusion and soil pH increase
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of biochar on the mobility of metals in soils are investigated, focusing on a possible kinetic limitation by transport in biochar particles, the evolution of the biochar mineral phases, and the effect of bio char on soil pH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving the Agronomy of Alyssum murale for Extensive Phytomining: A Five-Year Field Study
TL;DR: Cropping sown A. murale was more efficient than enhancing native stands and gave higher biomass and phytoextraction yields, and in natural stands, the control of graminaceous weeds required the use of an anti-monocots herbicide and weed control procured little benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current status and challenges in developing nickel phytomining: an agronomic perspective
Philip Nti Nkrumah,Alan J. M. Baker,Alan J. M. Baker,Alan J. M. Baker,Rufus L. Chaney,Peter D. Erskine,Guillaume Echevarria,Guillaume Echevarria,Jean Louis Morel,Jean Louis Morel,Antony van der Ent,Antony van der Ent,Antony van der Ent +12 more
TL;DR: Nickel (Ni) phytomining operations cultivate hyperaccumulator plants (metal crops) on Ni-rich (ultramafic) soils, followed by harvesting and incineration of the biomass to produce a high-grade "bio-ore" from which Ni metal or pure Ni salts are recovered as mentioned in this paper.
