Phytoremediation of Contaminated Soil with Sulfentrazone by Different Density of Crotalaria juncea [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta Daninha, 2019
: In phytoremediation programs of contaminated soil with herbicides, it is necessary to determine the appropriate density of phytoremediation species, since this practice will contribute to the efficiency of the process. The aim of this study, therefore,

Natural and Technical Phytoremediation of Oil-Contaminated Soil

open access: yesLife, 2023
Natural and technical phytoremediation approaches were compared for their efficacy in decontaminating oil-polluted soil. We examined 20 oil-contaminated sites of 800 to 12,000 m2 each, with different contamination types (fresh or aged) and levels (4.2–27.
