How does lead compare to other major contaminants? The infographic below highlights the relative health risks.

So, how do we remove lead from soil without destroying it? The infographic below illustrates the ReSoil® remediation process.

ReSoil® is an innovative EDTA-based soil washing technology developed by that enables the removal of toxic metals from contaminated soils in a closed-loop, emission-free process without wastewater, while preserving the soil as a natural substrate.

The attached scheme below illustrates how process solutions are continuously treated and reused, while residual metals are removed and safely immobilised - preventing secondary emissions. Soil conditioners are added to restore and improve soil quality.
