Soil Pollution Treatment through Water harvesting.
Treatment of agricultural Land polluted by waste water in Khalit Aldar, Kelkis- South of Hebron- Through Water harvesting Technique and by phyto-bioremedaition?
The project will introduce reliable remediation techniques at low cost for contaminated soil. A remediation method using phyto-degradation and enhancement of microbes - will be introduced by the project as a pilot for cleaning site to moderate or medium degree, depending mainly on the degree of contamination. The agriculture land in the wadi Abu Samn was the flow channel of municipal waste water that included synthetic and organic waste from the domestic and agricultural sources, the tannery and stone manufacture waste was disposed as well. The tannery uses heavy metals like Cr, and calcium stone factory, that makes the land non productive and the soil unsuitable for agriculture.
