About Indian Network for Soil Contamination

Established in early 1999, in the wake of organising an international conference, on the subject of environmental pollution, conference was organized at Hotel Radison in New Delhi, during December 1999. The network brought together several key researchers working on different aspects of contamination in soil environment spread across various academy, agricultural and industrial research institutions. This is an India based scientific network of researchers having interest in environmental aspects in soil environment. Soil contamination refers to the presence of unwanted man-made materials of chemical nature and wastes in the soil environments that are toxic and often injurious to human health and other life forms in the long run. Such contamination typically arises from the application of chemical pesticides on crops and seeds, accidents in chemical plants, rupture of underground storage tanks, percolation of contaminated surface water to subsurface strata, leaching of wastes from landfills or direct discharge of industrial wastes to the soil.
