Phytoextraction of mercury-contaminated soils

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2022
Abstract Mercury is a naturally occurring element that has become an extremely hazardous pollutant as a result of exceeding natural levels in the environment due to intense human activity. Considered the safest and most economical technology, phytoremediation of soils contaminated with heavy metals has been actively studied by scientists

Phytoextraction of Phosphorus‐Enriched Grassland Soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2009
High soil P contents in agricultural soils in the Netherlands cause excessive losses of P to surface waters. The reductions in P application rates in the present manure policy are not sufficient to reach surface water quality standards resulting from the European Water Framework Directive in 2015.

Tobacco, Sunflower and High Biomass SRC Clones Show Potential for Trace Metal Phytoextraction on a Moderately Contaminated Field Site in Belgium

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Phytoextraction could be a potential management option for diffusely Cd-Zn-Pb-polluted agricultural land in Northeast Belgium. The use of high yielding crops with a sufficiently high metal accumulation is preferred as these are expected to both gradually
