Aquatic plants for phytostabilization of cadmium and zinc in hydroponic experiments
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018Cadmium (Cd) may be toxic to aquatic plants even at modest concentrations, and excessive quantities of zinc (Zn) decrease plant performance. The Cd and Zn phytoremediation potential of several aquatic plant species (Thalia geniculate, Cyperus alternifolius, Canna indica, Eichhornia crassipes, Pistia stratiotes) and one grass species (Vetiveria ...

Challenging synergistic activity of poplar–bacteria association for the Cd phytostabilization
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2015The 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 ...

Bioavailability/Phytostabilization of Xenobiotics in Soil
2017Bioavailability 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 ...

A greenhouse study on phytostabilization of sulfidic mine tailings
2023The 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 a landfill containing coal combustion waste
Environmental Geosciences, 2005Abstract The 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.

Potential of rose for phytostabilization of chromium contaminated soils
Indian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2013Phytoremediation of soils contaminated with heavy metals has received considerable attention in recent years. Because of the contamination of food and vegetable crops with heavy metals, greater emphasis has been given to the cultivation of floriculture plants for remediation of the contaminated soils.

Phytostabilization Potential of Quailbush for Mine Tailings
Journal of Environmental Quality, 2007ABSTRACTAbandoned 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.].

Phytostabilization of Heavy Metals: Understanding of Principles and Practices
2019Pollution 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.

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2009
A phytostabilization process that combined the addition of a synthetic (Calcinit + urea + PK14% + calcium carbonate) or organic (cow slurry) amendment with Lolium perenne L. growth was used to remediate a mine soil moderately contaminated with Zn, Pb, and Cd.
