“…[ 18 ] The dominant texture of the agricultural soils in the region is sandy loam. [ 19 ] Data released by the Department of Statistics of Shifang showed that the annual production of cement, sulfuric acid, phosphate rock, and agricultural chemical fertilizers in 2018 was 3.49, 0.66, 0.10, and 0.03 million tons, respectively. [ 18 ] In addition, Shifang is an important production base of cereal and oil plants in Sichuan Province, with a cultivated land area of about 23 500 ha.…”

Metals in soils exert toxic effects on soil quality and human health. In order to carry out metal contamination assessment and human health risk assessment of agricultural soils, a total of 662 cultivated soil samples were collected from two industrially oriented towns and three agriculturally oriented towns of Shifang City, Southwest China. Various indices were applied to analyze the pollution levels of soils caused by metals (Cr, Fe, Pb, Sr, Ti, V, Zn, and Zr). The relatively high values of the geo‐accumulation index (Igeo) and the enrichment factor (EF) suggested that Sr, V, and Zn had cumulative trends in the soils. The average pollution load index (PLI) values of the industrial towns (1.19 and 0.99) were higher than those of the agricultural towns (0.92, 0.53, and 0.43), demonstrating the contribution of industrial activities to soil metal enrichment. The health risk assessment from the five towns indicated that Cr and V were the dominant contaminants in soils with high potential health risks. Dermal contact was the major pathway of the exposure of children and adults to Cr and V. This study improved the understanding of the pollution levels of metals in Shifang agricultural soils and put forward the necessity of minimizing the health risk of Cr and V in agricultural soil.

“…PFCs can also be detected in the soil of fluorosis areas in southwest China. The concentration range is 0.508-6.83 ng/g-mainly perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) and PFOA [38]. It can be seen that the environment has been polluted by PFCs to varying degrees.…”

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are a novel type of environmental pollutant with a specific structure. PFCs have become a global concern due to their environmental persistence and biotoxicity properties. In this paper, we review the hazardous effects, detection technologies, and treatment methods of PFCs. We present the current status of PFCs pollution in water, the atmosphere, soil, and organisms. Moreover, we show that PFCs have toxic effects, such as hepatotoxicity, neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, endocrine disruption, and reproductive and developmental toxicity. Six sample pretreatment techniques and four assays for PFCs are listed in this paper. This review focuses on the analysis of the treatment methods for PFCs, such as physical adsorption, microbial degradation, photochemical oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, acoustic oxidation, Fenton oxidation, and so on. We systematically analyze the treatment effects, removal mechanisms, and future directions of various technologies to provide support and suggestions for PFCs pollution control technologies.
