Apatite and Phillipsite as Sequestering Agents for Metals and Radionuclides

Journal Article · · Journal of Environmental Quality

Laboratory and greenhouse studies were conducted to quantify apatite and phillipsite (zeolite) sequestration of selected metal contaminants. Results from the laboratory study were used to design the greenhouse study that used a soil impacted by a Zn-Pb smelter from Pribram, Czech Republic.
