Abstract---In a soil ecosystem irrigated with low-quality water out at
El-Rahway village, Giza Governorate, Egypt, a completely randomized
field trial was carried out to assess the suitability of some soil
biochemical remediation technologies on minimizing the inorganic
contaminants hazards, their bioavailability as well as the relationship
between potential toxic elements (PTEs) distribution in remediated soil
ecosystem, the bioavailability index (BI) and pollutants uptake by
cultivated hyperaccumulated plants. Turnip Brassica rapa and radish
Raphanus sativus were separately cultivated in the contaminated after
being enriched with elemental sulfur (T1), elemental sulfur fortified
with a mixture of Thiobacillus Thiooxidans and Thiobacillus
ferrooxidans (T2), rock phosphate impregnated with phosphate
