Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria for Phytostabilization of Mine Tailings
Environmental Science & Technology, 2008Eolian dispersion of mine tailings in arid and semiarid environments is an emerging global issue for which economical remediation alternatives are needed. Phytostabilization, the revegetation of these sites with native plants, is one such alternative. Revegetation often requires the addition of bulky amendments such as compost which greatly increases ...

Trace metal accumulation by Ranunculus sceleratus: implications for phytostabilization
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2017This study investigated the growth response of Ranunculus sceleratus to pollution and its capacity to accumulate trace metals for its use as a phytoremediator in Lake Maruit, Egypt. Three basins (main basin, fish farm, and southwestern basin) representing the natural distribution of the plant as well as the pollution loads in the lake, were chosen for ...

Assessment of Fescue Cultivars for Phytostabilization Effectiveness
2006Previous research has identified Festuca cultivars as good candidates for use as phytostabilizers in metal-contaminated soils. Festuca species combine good metal sorption properties in root tissues with high metal tolerance and proven cultivation methods.

Phytostabilization of a landfill containing coal combustion waste
Environmental Geosciences, 2005The establishment of a vegetative cover to enhance evapotranspiration and control runoff and drainage was examined as a method for stabilizing a landfill containing coal combustion waste. Suitable plant species and pretreatment techniques in the form of amendments, tilling, and chemical stabilization were evaluated.

Arsenic (As) appears in the environment as various As species, which may vary in plant uptake and toxicity. Moreover, As exposure may vary between habitat due to availability and speciation, both of which are influenced by redox potential. To decrease As uptake, addition of silicate may be a tool.The aim of the study was to investigate how the external

Phytostabilization of Metal Mine Tailings Using Tall Fescue
Practice Periodical of Hazardous, Toxic, and Radioactive Waste Management, 2002Mined areas near the city of Galena, Kansas, provide a source of heavy metal contamination, particularly cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn).

Arsenic fractionation in mine spoils 10 years after aided phytostabilization
Environmental Pollution, 2012Aided phytostabilization using a combination of compost, zerovalent iron grit and coal fly ash (CZA) amendments and revegetation effectively promoted the biological recovery of mining spoils generated at a gold mine in Portugal. Selective dissolution of spoil samples in combination with solid phase characterization using microbeam X-ray absorption near

Chelant‐assisted Phytostabilization of Paint‐contaminated Residential Sites
CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, 2010AbstractFollowing the basic incubation study, a greenhouse experiment was conducted to elucidate the efficiency of vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides L.), with or without chelating agents, in remediating lead (Pb)‐contaminated soils from actual residential sites where Pb‐based paints were used.

Acanthus ilicifolius L. a promising candidate for phytostabilization of zinc
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2017The potential of a halophyte species-Acanthus ilicifolius L.-to phytostabilize zinc (Zn) grown under hydroponics culture conditions was critically evaluated in this study. The propagules after treating with ZnSO4 (4 mM) were analysed for the bioaccumulation pattern, translocation rate of Zn to the shoot, effects of Zn accumulation on organic solutes ...
