Iron phytostabilization by Leucaena leucocephala

South African Journal of Botany, 2021
Abstract This study investigated the potential for tolerance, absorption, and translocation of iron (Fe) by Leucaena leucocephala, as well as the response of the photosynthetic mechanism and the phytoremediation potential of L. leucocephala grown in soil with concentrations of Fe (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mg Fe/dm3 of soil).

Decision Pattern for Changing Polluted Areas into Recreational Places

Agronomy, 2022
There are many enclaves in the Mediterranean basin with soils contaminated with heavy metal(loid)s, most of these in natural areas of great beauty that have suffered the consequences of industrial and mining activity for years. These soils pose a risk to

Cadmium and Mercury phytostabilization from soil using Miscanthus × giganteus [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractThe determination of the effects of cadmium and mercury on the growth, biomass productivity and phytoremediation potential of Miscanthus × giganteus (MxG) grown on contaminated soil was the main aim of this paper. The use of bioenergy plants as an innovative strategy in phytotechnology gives additional benefits, including mitigation and ...

Biochar-Assisted Phytostabilization for Potentially Toxic Element Immobilization [PDF]

Sustainability, 2021
In response to the growing threat to the quality of the soil environment, new technologies are being developed to protect and remediate contaminated sites. A new approach, namely, assisted phytostabilization, has been used in areas contaminated with high levels of potentially toxic elements (PTEs), using various soil additives.

Synthesis of Zn(II) and Co(II) Complexes with a Schiff Base Derived from Malonic Acid Dihydrazide for Photo-Stabilizers of Polystyrene

Indonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2023
In this study, novel Schiff base complexes with Zn(II) and Co(II) ions were successfully synthesized. The malonic acid dihydrazide was converted into the Schiff base ligand by combining it with 1-hydroxy-2-naphthaldehyde, and the last step required ...

Phytostabilization of Phosphate Mine Wastes Used as a Store-and-Release Cover to Control Acid Mine Drainage in a Semiarid Climate

Plants, 2021
The abandoned Kettara pyrrhotite mine, located near Marrakech, Morocco, is an acid mine drainage (AMD) producer site. A store-and-release cover system made of phosphate wastes was built to prevent water infiltration and the formation of AMD.
