Pteridophytes in phytoremediation
Environmental Geochemistry and Health, 2019Soil contamination by heavy metals and metalloids is a serious problem which needs to be addressed. There are several methods for removal of contaminants, but they are costly, while the method of phytoremediation is eco-friendly and cost-effective. Pteridophytes have been found to remediate heavy metal-contaminated soil. Pteridophytes are non-flowering

Transgenic Plants for Phytoremediation
International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2011Phytoremediation is a green, sustainable and promising solution to problems of environmental contamination. It entails the use of plants for uptake, sequestration, detoxification or volatilization of inorganic and organic pollutants from soils, water, sediments and possibly air.

Abstract This chapter discusses phytoremediators. These species have evolved mechanisms to tolerate various metals and to accumulate them in their tissues. A selection of plants commonly used for phytoremediation such as aspen (Populus spp.), berseem or Egyptian clover (Trifolium alexandrinum), Brassica juncea, Brassica carinata, common reed ...

Contamination of soil and sediment causes adverse affects on human health through various routes of exposure such as inhalation of particulate matter, direct contact and ingestion through the food chain. Nevertheless, it is possible to safeguard public health through the remediation of contaminated sites, which can then be reused for various future ...
