Abstract: The current status of the arsenic polluted soil at home and abroad was summarized. The research progress and advantages and disadvantages of the remediation techniques, including solidification/stabilization, soil washing, electrokinetic remediation, bioremediation, phytoremediation and agro-ecological restoration, were discussed. Meanwhile, prospects of arsenic pollution in soil were proposed: influencing factors and mechanism under arsenic contaminated soil remediation need to be researched and explored at higher level, new remediation techniques need to be developed, and the research and application of the combined remediation technologies need to be attached importance to.
