A Systematic Review on the Phytoremediation Potential of Grass Species in Ethiopia. [PDF]
ScientificWorldJournalEnvironmental contamination has shown an increasing trend due to urbanization, industrialization, and the intensive use of pesticides and fertilizers in Ethiopia. In response to this, phytoremediation has gained attention as an inexpensive and eco‐friendly approach to the protection of soil, water, and air from contamination.

Plants from the abandoned Nacozari mine tailings: evaluation of their phytostabilization potential [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Phytostabilization is a remediation technology that uses plants for in-situ stabilization of contamination in soils and mine tailings. The objective of this study was to identify native plant species with potential for phytostabilization of the abandoned

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

Evolution of the Residual Pollution in Soils after Bioremediation Treatments
Applied Sciences, 2020 This study is focused on one of the most important spills that ever happened in Europe, the Aznalcóllar’s mine spill. The extensive application of phytostabilization in the area led to the implementation of the Guadiamar Green Corridor (GGC ...
