Biophysico‐Chemical Processes of Heavy Metals and Metalloids in Soil Environments
Abstract
Written by a multidisciplinary group of soil and environmental scientists, Biophysico-Chemical Processes of Heavy Metals and Metalloids in Soil Environments provides the scientific community with a critical qualitative and quantitative review of the fundamentals of the processes of pollutants in soil environments. The book covers pollutants' speciation, mobility, bioavailability and toxicity, and impacts on development of innovative restoration strategies. In addition, the development of innovative remediation strategies for polluted soils is covered.

Toxic elements in anionic form sorb primarily to variable charge minerals, carbonate, and the edges of phyllosilicates.
“Toxic elements in anionic form sorb primarily to variable charge minerals (metal oxides and noncrystalline aluminum silicates, allophanes), carbonate, and at the edges of phyllosilicates.”

Organic matter and variable charge minerals are much more effective scavengers of polyvalent cations because complexation processes are the dominant binding mechanisms.
“Organic matter and variable charge minerals (metal oxides, allophanes, imogolite) are much more effective scavengers of polyvalent cations because complexation processes are the dominant binding mechanisms [5, 6, 9, 10].”

Usually, anionic toxic elements are not sorbed on soil organic matter, but certain elements (borate, arsenate, arsenite, selenite) are found bound to humic substances.
“Usually, they are not sorbed on soil organic matter, but certain elements (e.g., borate, arsenate, arsenite, selenite) are found to be bound to humic substances [1, 2, 10, 13, 14].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
