The removal efficiencies (CA) ranged from 78 to 82% for Ni, Cu, Zn and Cr. It can completely remove contaminants in sediment with quick results, but it requires a large investment and covers a wide area. As for dredged sediment, most remediation methods are basically increasing the mobilization or immobilization of metals to reduce toxicity and bioavailability. Due to its abundance, persistence, and environmental toxicity, heavy metal pollution has always been one of the hot spots in the world.
