Abstract
Rapid industrialization and technological advances made a huge change in the infrastructure setups and construction model. On the one hand, there is an urgent need for transformation and upgrading in some places with high levels of urbanization, while land resources are exceedingly scarce. The urban environment, on the other hand, is overburdened. The human settlement environment is relatively high, and the construction land used for urban redevelopment has hidden environmental dangers influences. Soil contamination may be more harmful to human health, and it has become one of the most visible flaws in the development of a prosperous society. Many countries have developed legislation and governance mechanisms to address issues related to the quality of building land, including pollution of construction land. This study summarizes the research state of domestic and foreign policies and technology in the treatment of land-use pollution.
Keywords: Urbanization, human settlement, soil contamination, legislation, domestic or foreign policies
