Professor George Fouad Antonious of Kentucky State University’s College of Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources has been selected to serve as Guest Editor for a special issue of the journal Applied Sciences, published by MDPI.

The upcoming issue, Soil Pollution and Remediation: Recent Developments and Future Perspectives, 2nd Edition, follows a successful first edition edited by Dr. Antonious in 2022, which focused on contaminants and remediation innovations.

“Contaminated soils present risks to ecosystems, food supplies, and human health. Through this special issue we want to provide an international forum where researchers can share the most current findings and practical applications,” he said.
