Stabilization of Fly Ash Deposits through Selected Cereal Crops
Fly ash, a waste product from burning coal in power plants, occupies important spaces and is a major harm for environment: water, air, soil and associated ecosystems. New deposits do not have available nutrients for plant growth.

Phytostabilization potential of ornamental plants grown in soil contaminated with cadmium
In a greenhouse experiment, five ornamental plants, Osmanthus fragrans (OF), Ligustrum vicaryi L. (LV), Cinnamomum camphora (CC), Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum (LC), and Euonymus japonicas cv. Aureo-mar (EJ), were studied for the ability to phytostabilization for Cd-contaminated soil.

Phytostabilization as a Remediation Alternative at Mining Sites [PDF]
In the last 10 years, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has reclaimed a number of abandoned mine land (AML) sites, often by removing mine, mill, and smelter wastes and taking them to a repository.
