Short rotation coppice culture of willows and poplars as energy crops on metal contaminated agricultural soils.
phytoextraction, has been placed forward as an environmental friendly remediation technique, that can gradually reduce increased soil metal concentrations, in particular the bioavailable fractions. The aim of this ...
A dynamic model to calculate cadmium concentrations in bovine tissues from basic soil characteristics.
exposure model is an animal-specific average daily Cd intake, which is then taken forward to a kinetic uptake model in which time-dependent Cd concentrations in bovine tissues are calculated. The chain model ...
Determination of the volume-specific surface area by using transmission electron tomography for characterization and definition of nanomaterials.
electron microscopy (TEM) remains an important technique to investigate the size, shape and surface characteristics of particles at the nanometer scale. Resulting micrographs are two dimensional projections ...
Concomitant microbial generation of palladium nanoparticles and hydrogen to immobilize chromate.
Oxidation-Reduction Palladium Abstract: The catalytic properties of various metal nanoparticles have led to their use in environmental remediation. Our aim is to develop and apply an efficient bioremediation method ...
Cadmium exposure in the population: from health risks to strategies of prevention.
The latter might especially be relevant in groups with a lower intake of iron, such as vegetarians, and women in reproductive phase of life. In exposed populations, house dust loaded with Cd is an ...
