leaching
Leaching is the process by which substances are dissolved and removed from a solid material, often soil or rock, by percolating water or other liquids. The dissolved substances are then transported to another location, potentially causing environmental problems or changes in composition of the original material. This process is often used in various industries such as mining and agriculture.
