Phytoremediation is an effective and low-cost method for the remediation of soil contaminated by potentially toxic elements (metals metalloids) with hyperaccumulating plants. This study analyzed hyperaccumulator publications using data from Web Science Core Collection (WoSCC) (1992–2020). We explored research status on this topic creating a series scientific maps VOSviewer, HistCite Pro, CiteSp...

In this work, the concentrations of the potentially toxic elements in stream sediments in SE Nigeria were assessed for pollution monitoring in mining, quarrying, and farming areas. The levels of iron, molybdenum, vanadium, copper, lead, zinc, nickel, cobalt, manganese, chromium, barium, and beryllium were determined. The concentrations of the elements were in the order of Fe > Ba > Mn > Cr > Zn...

This study was conducted to highlight status and distribution of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in Usangu agroecosystem-Tanzania. The involved 198 soil samples from 10 irrigation schemes including three land use. concentrations selected PTEs (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, As, Hg, Co, Nie etc.) were determined estimate status, distribution, contamination hierarchy. total bioavailable by aqua regia dige...
