The effects of potentially toxic metals (copper and zinc) on selected physical and physico-chemical properties of bentonites

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of copper or zinc ions, absorbed by soil on its physical and physicochemical properties. The change in these properties may reduce the soil usefulness as a mineral protective barrier, for example, on hazardous waste landfills. Parameters such as...
