Yes, but it is complicated. Eh, pH, ORP, microbe population, sulfate, organic carbon and iron are all variables on heavy metal removal. Understand the existing biological and physico-chemical properties of a site-specific conditions before attempting to change them. You will probably have to work within the existing pH range, especially with groundwater. Working with Jan…
