Application of Isotope Tracer Technique in Source Apportionment of Heavy Metal Pollution in Soil

The formation of heavy metal pollution in soil is closely related to human production and life. In order to effectively control heavy metal pollution and repair damaged soil,the pollution source should be known and judged first. Based on the preliminary analysis of major sources of soil heavy metal pollution in soil,combined with relevant literatures on heavy metal pollution source of soil or sediment at home and abroad in recent years,application progress of isotope tracer technique,especially lead isotope tracer technique,in the study of heavy metal pollution sources in soils and sediments were reviewed. The key points of future isotope tracer technology in the field of heavy metal pollution source apportionment were prospected.
