A global meta-analysis of heavy metal(loid)s pollution in soils near copper mines: Evaluation of pollution level and probabilistic health risks.
Li Chen,Mingxi Zhou,Jingzhe Wang,Zhang Zhi-qin,Duan Chengjiao,Wang Xiangxiang,Zhao ShuLing,Bai Xiaohan,Zhijie Li,Liang Zimin,Linchuan Fang +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the pollution status and probabilistic health risks of heavy metal(loid)s of soils associated with Cu mines, have rarely been studied on a global scale, and the authors indicate that the control of Cu, Cd, and As should be prioritized because of their high incidence and significant risks in soils near Cu mines.

Apportionment and location of heavy metal(loid)s pollution sources for soil and dust using the combination of principal component analysis, Geodetector, and multiple linear regression of distance.
TL;DR: In this article , a method combining principal component analysis (PCA), Geodetector, and multiple linear regression of distance (MLRD) in soil and dust, taking a multi-functional industrial park in Anhui Province, China, as an example, was used to determine the type and possible location of the source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced recovery of copper from reclaimed copper smelting fly ash via leaching and electrowinning processes
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of current density and electrolysis time on the recovery efficiency of Cu were studied, and the results indicated that the Cu was 92.52% in the leaching process when the mass ratio of RCA and H2SO4 was 1:0.5, leaching temperature was 50 °C, the solid liquid ratio was 40 g/L, and leaching time was 1.5h.

Heavy Metals in Contaminated Soils: A Review of Sources, Chemistry, Risks and Best Available Strategies for Remediation
TL;DR: The principles, advantages and disadvantages of immobilization, soil washing and phytoremediation techniques which are frequently listed among the best demonstrated available technologies for cleaning up heavy metal contaminated sites are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remediation techniques for heavy metal-contaminated soils: Principles and applicability
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive assessment indicates that chemical stabilization serves as a temporary soil remediation technique, phytoremediation needs improvement in efficiency, surface capping and landfilling are applicable to small, serious-contamination sites, while solidification and vitrification are the last remediation option.
