ONTARE. REVISTA DE INVESTIGACIÓN DE LA FACULTAD DE INGENIERÍA
Since well before the mining locomotive from the previous National Development Plan, all the activities related to mineral extraction have been a source of wealth and problems in different parts of the country. This article compiles the results of the research that the EAN University has been performing since 2014, in order to consolidate knowledge about the remediation of soil that has been contaminated with mercury as a result of the poorly developed gold extraction processes, seeking to contribute to the identification of solutions for the recovery of the mercury-contaminated soil matrix.
