Phytoremediation of BTEX contaminated soil by Canna×generalis
Bioaccumulation experiments showed that the canna (Canna×generalis) could accumulate BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes) from root zone and rhizome zone soil and translocate these compounds to the shoot. A comparison among these compounds showed that the sequences for accumulation in the root, rhizome and shoot were strongly related to ...

BTEX removal with bioelectrochemical systems
Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX) are hazardous contaminants that can accidentally impact groundwater. Biological strategies can be used to remove BTEX compounds usually by adding oxygen to sustain the aerobic degradation. However, this approach can be expensive and technically difficult.
