Bioremediation of contaminated soils- Bioremediation is a process or strategy to detoxify the ground or other environments using microorganisms (such as fungi and bacteria) and enzymes. It is based on a process of microbial degradation and on chemical reactions combined with engineering processes to transform contaminants so they no lon (...)

Use of vegetation for the recovery of degraded areas - Projects that employ technologies with lower environmental impact constitute an important strategy for the recovery of degraded areas.
The use of bioengineering technologies for erosion control and phytoremediation for soil decontamination is applied increasingly in situations where (...)

Computer modeling of aquifers and contaminated subsurface soils - The presence of free-phase or dissolved contaminants in saturated soil can be identified based on physicochemical analyses of the subsoil and groundwater. Simulating the conditions of groundwater in the soil matrix using computational models enables interpretation of the diffusion and dispersion of (...)

Diagnosis and remediation projects for contaminated areas - Contaminated areas represent a threat to human health and to the environment. Following the principle of ‘the polluter pays’, environmental legislation establishes that whoever is responsible for contamination must pay for the recovery.
This recovery is made according t (...)
