Soil amendments for immobilization of potentially toxic elements in contaminated soils: A critical review. (2019, background): “GIS-based and multivariate statistical analyses have found that Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn are commonly detected in urban soils contaminated by vehicle traffic, paint use, and other industrial discharges (Davis et al., 2009; Lee et al., 2006; Luo et al., 2012), whereas As and Hg primarily come from coal bur”
