Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Soil salinization is an escalating threat to dryland agroecosystems, intensified by unsustainable agricultural practices, limited freshwater availability, and increasingly high evaporative demand. Phytodesalination offers a potential water‐saving alternative to salt leaching, yet its efficiency is contingent on appropriate plant selection ...

Utilization of plants for stabilization and cleaning up of metal contaminated soil and water [PDF]
Acta Montanistica Slovaca, 2006 Phytoremediation has been defined as the use of green plants and their associated rhizospheric microorganisms to remove, degrade, or contain contaminants located in soisl, sediments, groundwater, surface water, and even the atmosphere.

Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species
Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 3, March 2026.This study focuses on phytoremediation in a gold mining‐contaminated area in Doko, Guinea. Plant, soil, and rhizospheric soil samples were collected and subjected to physicochemical analyses to quantify heavy metal content. Biological indicators: bioconcentration factor (BCF), translocation factor (TF), and biological accumulation coefficient (BAC ...
