Abstract

The soil is one component of the Earth that people seldom see due to the growth of concrete structures and roadways. The plants that provide us with food grow on soil, therefore keeping it healthy is critical for maintaining a beautiful environment. Pollution affects soil, just as it does all other forms of nature. Soil contamination is a widespread occurrence these days, but it is caused by the presence of man-made components. The existence of man-made trash is the primary source of contamination in the soil. The waste created by nature, including dead plants, animal corpses, or rotting fruits and vegetables, only contributes to the soil's fertility. Human waste products, on the other hand, are full of toxins that aren't present in nature and cause soil contamination. This study investigates the several types of soil contamination that occur regularly. This study looks at all of the different methods for cleaning up contaminated soil in great detail. Thermal therapy, bioremediation, Biosparging, soil vapor extraction, and electric resistance heating are some of the therapies available. This article's author talks about soil contamination and how to properly treat it. This study will help researchers better understand soil pollution and how to address it in the future.
