Sorption and speciation of heavy metals in a marine clay

In recent decades, the ever-increasing level of soil contamination by potentially harmful substances such as heavy metals has resulted in increasing interest in understanding the heavy metal mobility and attenuation process in soils. In this study, the capability of a marine clay to immobilise Zn, P...
