Critical Assessment of Chelant-Enhanced Metal Phytoextraction

, 2016
Chelant-enhanced phytoextraction has received a lot of attention in the past decade. In theory, this technique could cleanse metal polluted soils by solubilizing contaminating metals, allowing them to be taken up by plants that would subsequently be ...

EDTA-enhanced phytoextraction: leveraging Ricinus communis for the decontamination of Pb and Cd in agricultural soils

Agricultural soils frequently suffer from human-induced activities, accumulating hazardous contaminants such as lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd). Given the environmental and human health threats posed by these heavy metals, the need for effective purification ...

Rhizosphere characteristics, heavy metal accumulation and growth performance of two willow (Salix × rubens) clones

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2006
High-biomass tree species holds promise for a clean up of metal contaminated soils. Root and fungal activities modify soil characteristics that are important factors for the phytoextraction process (metal availability and toxicity).

Phytoextraction: an assessment of biogeochemical and economic viability

, 2003
8 páginas, 3 figuras, 29 referencias.Phytoextraction describes the use of plants to remove metals and other contaminants from soils. This low-cost technology has potential for the in situ remediation of large areas of contaminated land.

EDTA-assisted Pb phytoextraction

, 2018
Pb is one of the most widespread and metal pollutants in soil. It is generally concentrated in surface layers with only a minor portion of the total metal found in soil solution.

Effect of sewage sludge and digestate from anaerobic fermentation on the accumulation of cadmium (Cd), gallium (Ga), germanium (Ge), and rare earth elements (REEs) in soil and uptake by plants with different nutrition strategies

Frontiers in Environmental Science
This study investigates how sewage sludge and liquid digestate, as biosolid amendments, affect the mobility of cadmium (Cd), gallium (Ga), germanium (Ge), and rare earth elements (REEs) in soil, as well as their uptake by plants with differing ...

Phytoextraction of 137Cs: The Effect of Soil 137Cs Concentration on 137Cs Uptake by Beta vulgaris

, 2002
The last phase for MAGNOX ELECTRIC plc's reactor decommissioning strategy is site clearance and delicencing. Phytoextraction of 137Cs may be able to assist in meeting this objective.

Cadmium phytoextraction: present state, biological interactions and research needs

, 2003
Cadmium is a toxic metal for living organisms and an environmental contaminant. Agricultural soils in many parts of the world are slightly to moderately contaminated by Cd due to long term use of phosphatic fertilisers, sewage sludge application as well ...
