Combined use of municipal solid waste biochar and bacterial biosorbent synergistically decreases Cd(II) and Pb(II) concentration in edible tissue of forage maize irrigated with heavy metal–spiked water

A pot experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of a municipal solid waste (MSW) biochar and a bacterial strain on the forage maize growth and the concentration of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in the edible tissue of maize irrigated with water contaminated with Cd (5 mg L−1) and Pb (100 mg L−1...
