Novel Strategies for the Removal of Toxic Metals from Soils and Waters
D. Max Roundhill
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX 79409

February 2004
Vol. 81 No. 2
p. 275
Abstract
This article surveys the toxicities of mercury, cadmium, lead, copper, cadmium, and the actinides. Strategies for the removal of these metals include surfactants, aqueous biphasic systems, and liquid membranes. For soils, both in situ stabilization and detection are discussed. For extraction from soils, electrokinetic extraction, phytoremediation, and bioremediation methods are critically evaluated. This article provides an educator with the resources to set up a series of lectures on inorganic aspects of environmental chemistry.
