Phytoremediation Potential of Heavy Metals Using Biochar and Accumulator Plants: A Sustainable Approach Towards Cleaner Environments [PDF]
PlantsNative plant species show significant promise for the remediation and rehabilitation of mine tailings contaminated with heavy metals (HM). Nonetheless, the harmful impact of HM can decrease plant survival, growth and reproduction, thereby diminishing the

Peak expiratory flow rate, blood oxygen saturation, and pulse rate among the mine tailing community
Indian Journal of Community Medicine, 2018 Background: Chronic inhalation of dust impairs lung function and may cause respiratory symptoms. Very little attention has been paid to the health of community exposed to dust raised by mine tailing which is deposited for many years without precautionary

Unsaturated mine tailings disposal
Soils and Rocks, 2021 Filtered tailings is the disposal technology that is most likely to yield an unsaturated state of the tailings. Such state has important benefits. A dam to contain the mine wastes is no longer needed, the risk of polluting seepage is minimized, and liquefaction of tailings is prevented. Filtering also allows most of the water mixed with the tailings to

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2022 In the Philippines, legacy mines and active mine wastes pose potential threats since these may contain elevated concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and high natural radioactivity. In this study, legacy mine wastes from the Philippine Iron

Characterization of diazotrophic root endophytes in Chinese silvergrass (Miscanthus sinensis)
Microbiome, 2022 Background Phytoremediation is a potentially cost-effective way to remediate highly contaminated mine tailing sites. However, nutrient limitations, especially the deficiency of nitrogen (N), can hinder the growth of plants and impair the phytoremediation
