Soil Pollution: CRISIS AND CONTROL, Volume II

Bys: Mishra, Rajesh Kumar, Mishra, Divyansh, Agarwal, Rekha

Soil Pollution: Crisis and Control - Volume II focuses on the detection, assessment, remediation, governance, and prevention of contaminated land. It examines traditional soil sampling and laboratory analysis alongside emerging approaches based on artificial intelligence, remote sensing, GIS, precision agriculture, sensors, and digital soil mapping. The volume explores major remediation strategies, including physical and chemical treatment, bioremediation, phytoremediation, nanoremediation, and integrated technologies, emphasizing that effective treatment must be site-specific and risk-based. It also examines international environmental governance, national regulatory frameworks, liability, monitoring infrastructure, and enforcement. Case studies from different regions demonstrate the diverse environmental, health, agricultural, and socioeconomic consequences of soil contamination. The final chapters shift from remediation toward prevention, sustainable soil management, restoration of soil biodiversity, ecological resilience, and the goal of zero soil pollution. The book emphasizes integration: reliable field measurements should provide scientific ground truth.
