Method and mechanism of chromium removal from soil: a systematic review.

Heavy metal pollution has increasingly affected human life, and the treatment of heavy metal pollution, especially chromium pollution, is still a major problem in the field of environmental governance. As a commonly used industrial metal, chromium can easily enter the environment with improperly treated industrial waste or wastewater, then pollute soil and water sources, and eventually accumulate in the human body through the food chain. Many countries and regions in the world are threatened by soil chromium pollution, resulting in the occurrence of cancer and a variety of metabolic diseases.

The effect of phosphate mining activities on rhizosphere bacterial communities of surrounding vegetables and crops.
