What Role Does Catalysis Play in Soil Remediation?
Soil contamination can be addressed through catalytic processes:
In-Situ Chemical Oxidation (ISCO): This technique involves injecting oxidizing agents and catalysts into the contaminated soil to degrade pollutants. Phytoremediation: Plants enhanced with catalytic agents are used to absorb and break down contaminants in the soil. Bioaugmentation: The introduction of catalytically active microorganisms to degrade pollutants in the soil.
