Integrated Remediation Processes toward Heavy Metal-Contaminated Environment

<p><span style=color: rgba(23 43 77 1)>The rapid development of urban industrialization and mineral resource utilization has led to the widespread release of toxic heavy metals into water soil and the atmosphere posing serious threats to ecological security and human health. This reprint is dedicated to advancing the fundamental theories and engineering practices of heavy metal remediation. It showcases high-quality original research on a range of innovative technologies and strategies including the application of environmental microorganisms functional materials and multi-technology combinations. It also encompasses biogeochemical processes of heavy metals (migration transformation and fate) advanced remediation technologies (targeting persistence and mechanisms) and ecological safety assessment methods ultimately contributing to the co-achievement of a cleaner environment.</span></p>
