Phytoextraction: Where’s the action?
Journal of Geochemical Exploration, 2015 Abstract Many articles concerning phytoextraction of trace elements state that it is “an emerging technology that can be used for the low-cost clean-up of contaminated land…”. Given the lack of commercial phytoextraction operations or even successful field trials, we sought to determine whether phytoextraction could ever compete with existing ...

Phosphate‐Assisted Phytoextraction in As‐Contaminated Soil
Engineering in Life Sciences, 2004 AbstractIn this paper, the effect of phosphate on As phytoextraction was examined. The effect of phosphate on As dissolution, the As uptake of plants, the internal plant translocation, and phytotoxic effect were investigated. Lupine plants were grown on As‐contaminated soil collected from an industrial site containing 670 mg/kg As and were treated with

Phytoextraction to promote sustainable development [PDF]
Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2013 Mining makes a positive contribution to the economy of Indonesia. Significant earnings accrue through the export of tin, coal, copper, nickel and gold. Of these commodities, gold carries the highest unit value. But not all gold mining is regulated.

Use of Willow in Phytoextraction
International Journal of Phytoremediation, 1999 ABSTRACT Willow is shown to be able to accumulate high levels of heavy metal ions such as cadmium and zinc. The properties of willow to be used in phytoextraction therefore have been studied. In this article, results from different studies on heavy metals and willow have been used to demonstrate the capacity and possibility of using Salix in ...

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 The management of initial planting density can be a strategy to increase barium phytoextraction from soil, reducing the time required for soil decontamination. To delimit the ideal planting density for barium (Ba) phytoremediation using Typha domingensis,

Phytoextraction of Cr(VI) from soil using Portulaca oleracea [PDF]
, 2013 Cr(VI) represents an environmental challenge in both soil and water as it is soluble and bioavailable over a wide range of pH. In previous investigations, Portulaca oleracea (a plant local to the United Arab Emirates (UAE)) demonstrated particular ...

Interaction of Ni and Cu in accumulation in leaves of the Ni-hyper accumulator, Alyssum murale [PDF]
Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2022 Plants that can accumulate metals to exceptionally high concentrations in their shoots are so-called hyper-accumulators. To further quantify potential interactions between Ni and Cu, the Alyssuem murale grown in soils with factorial additions of NiSO4·6 ...

Long-term field metal extraction by pelargonium:phytoextraction efficiency in relation to plant maturity [PDF]
, 2011 The long length of periods required for effective soil remediation via phytoextraction constitutes a weak point that reduces its industrial use. However, these calculated periods are mainly based on short-term and/or hydroponic controlled experiments ...
