Heavy Metal Soil Mobility & Plant Uptake Simulator

Interactive 3D soil-toxicology simulator: adjust pH, organic matter and contamination level to see how a poisonous heavy metal partitions between bound soil and bioavailable pore water, gets absorbed by plant roots, and whether the resulting crop tissue concentration crosses a food-safety hazard threshold.

Not all of a poisonous substance in soil is equally dangerous — its bioavailability depends on chemistry, not just quantity. This simulator models the real sorption equilibrium that governs how a heavy metal contaminant (cadmium, lead, zinc or copper) splits between soil-bound and bioavailable pore-water phases as a function of pH and organic matter, then carries the bioavailable fraction through root uptake into plant tissue using a metal-specific bioconcentration factor, comparing the result against a food-safety hazard threshold. A live 3D soil column shows individual metal ions glowing when bioavailable and drifting toward root tips, rising into the canopy on capture — a direct picture of the soil-to-crop exposure pathway used in real environmental risk assessment.

⚙ Under the hood

Adjust soil pH, organic matter and contamination level to see a poisonous heavy metal partition between bound soil and bioavailable pore water, then track its uptake into plant tissue against a real food-safety hazard threshold.
