Development of technologies during the remediation process of the contaminated environment

Development of methods for removal and transformation of toxic elements from contaminated rock environment. The objective is the selective extraction of toxic elements with an over-limit concentration depending on the contamination. By analysing bacterial activity under laboratory and natural conditions, the factors of selective mobility of toxic elements will be determined depending on the composition…
