Phytostabilization of Soils Contaminated with Cadmium by Peristrophe bivalvis

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology
This study aims to investigate the ability of cadmium (Cd) accumulation in Peristrophe bivalvis cultivated in a pot experiment for 60 days at various Cd amounts of 0, 20, 60, and 100 mg/kg. Throughout the experiment, no toxic effects were observed, and the presence of Cd did not inhibit the growth of the plants. A linear correlation coefficient (P

Bioavailability/Phytostabilization of Xenobiotics in Soil

2017
Bioavailability of xenobiotics is not a single value that can be measured by a single chemical or even biological method. It is a process that, as any processes in nature, varies in time and space. Total xenobiotic concentrations in soil are, and most likely will be, considered in risk assessment of contaminated sites, even though they do not reflect ...

PHYTOSTABILIZATION OF IRON ORE TAILINGS THROUGHCALOPHYLLUM INOPHYLLUML.

International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2012
The phytostabilization of waste material generated during mining and processing of iron ore through Calophyllum inophyllum L. have been investigated. Iron ore tailings and its varying composition with garden soil were taken to study plant growth, chlorophyll content and metal uptake pattern of Calophyllum inophyllum L.

Phytostabilization Potential of Quailbush for Mine Tailings

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2007
ABSTRACTAbandoned mine tailings sites in semiarid regions remain unvegetated for extended periods of time and are subject to eolian dispersion and water erosion. This study examines the potential phytostabilization of a lead‐zinc mine tailings site using a native, drought‐tolerant halophyte, quailbush [Atriplex lentiformis (Torr.) S. Wats.].

Challenging synergistic activity of poplar–bacteria association for the Cd phytostabilization

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2015
The synergistic activity between plants and microorganisms may contribute to the implementation of proactive management strategies in the stabilization of contaminated sites, although heavy metals, such as cadmium (Cd), are potentially toxic to them. The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of tolerance to Cd contamination (supplying twice 40 ...

Phytostabilization of Lead-Polluted Sites by Native Plants

2009
The Cartagena–La Union Mining District in southeast Spain is an example of a lead-polluted site that exhibits a wide range of environmental problems. Risks associated with the high concentrations of heavy metals present, especially lead, and their large affected surface areas make such sites excellent candidates for phytostabilization. However, for the

Poplar Trees for Phytostabilization of Abandoned Zinc-Lead Smelter

Practice Periodical of Hazardous, Toxic, and Radioactive Waste Management, 2002
Poplar trees represent one vegetation option for phytostabilization of heavy metal-contaminated sites. The objective of this study was to investigate the suitability of deep-planted hybrid poplars for phytostabilization of a heavy metal-contaminated site. Tree survival was greatly improved when trees were planted using cattle manure as a soil amendment

A greenhouse study on phytostabilization of sulfidic mine tailings

2023
The reclamation of sulfidic mine tailings with the potential to release toxic metals into the surrounding environment, has been an urgent, yet difficult, task for a long period. Direct revegetation is a more cost-effective reclamation method than a multilayer covering system on tailings. Phytostabilization can stabilize toxic metals in the rhizosphere,

Phytostabilization of Heavy Metals: Understanding of Principles and Practices

2019
Pollution with toxic metals causes severe menace to the ecosystem, and phytostabilization of heavy metals using green plants is nowadays receiving more consideration as it offers a cost-effective, eco-friendly technique, and moreover it is an aesthetically pleasing one.
