Answer 2

Answer:

Soil pollution is defined as the presence of toxic chemicals (pollutants or contaminants) in soil, in high enough concentrations to pose a risk to human health and/or the ecosystem.

Control measures:

1. Excavation and subsequent transportation of polluted soils to remote, uninhabited locations.

2. Extraction of pollutants via thermal remediation – the temperature is raised in order to force the contaminants into the vapor phase, after which they can be collected through vapor extraction.

3. Bioremediation or phytoremediation involves the use of microorganisms and plants for the decontamination of soil.

4. Mycoremediation involves the use of fungi for the accumulation of heavy metal contaminants.
