Advances in Remediation of Contaminated Sites: Volume I
This special issue belongs to the section “Environmental and Green Processes“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the development of the social economy, the population has increased sharply, and the land area involved in production and human life is also gradually increasing. To meet the production and development needs of society, land resources have been synchronously damaged and polluted to certain extents due to human activity. As land resources are non-renewable, developing land restoration and improvement approaches with efficiency is an important approach for achieving the sustainable development of human society. Site remediation technology has developed rapidly in recent years and has brought hope for land remediation. However, after this rapid development, land remediation technology has also encountered bottlenecks, and new breakthroughs are urgently required.
This Special Issue “Advances in Remediation of Contaminated Sites: Volume I” aims to collect the latest progress in contaminated site remediation, in order to help solve the new bottleneck in the development of site remediation technology. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Survey and assessment of contaminated sites
- Environmental processes and effects of pollutants
- Remediation technology and its application in contaminated sites
- Remediation strategy and management in contaminated sites
