Assessment of Phytoremediation Potential of Alyssum Maritimum in Remediation of Lead-Contaminated Soils
Background and Aim: Phytoremediation is a promising method for improving soils that can easily absorb heavy metals, resulting in decontamination of the soil. The objective of this study was to assess the phytoremediation potential of Alyssum maritimum in the remediation of lead-contaminated soil. Materials and Methods: A randomized complete block design was used with five levels of lead (Pb) c...
متن کاملPlant screening of halophyte species for cadmium phytoremediation.
Chloride (Cl-) has been related to increased phytoavailability of cadmium (Cd) in soil. A glasshouse experiment using a historically contaminated soil was undertaken to evaluate the effect of chloride on Cd uptake by salt-tolerant plants and possibly quantify the uptake of discrete Cd species (e.g. Cd2+, CdCl+, CdCl(0)2). Chloride treatments were applied as 100 mM NaCl and compared with equival...
متن کاملAccumulation of heavy metals in plants and potential phytoremediation of lead by potato, Solanum tuberosum L.
The use of sewage sludge as a source of nutrients in crop production is increasing in the United States and worldwide. A field study was conducted on a 10% slope at Kentucky State University Research Farm. Eighteen plots of 22x3.7 m each were separated using metal borders and the soil in six plots was mixed with sewage sludge, six plots were mixed with yard waste compost, and six unamended plot...
متن کاملThe Potential of Corn (Zea mays) for Phytoremediation of Soil Contaminated with Cadmium and Lead
ABSRACT A study was carried out to investigate the potential of Corn (Zea mays) for phytoremediation of soil contaminated with Cadmium and Lead. Soil samplings of 0-20 cm depth were taken from the Chaharmahal Bakhtiari province in the western of Iran. Corn plantlets were planted in pots containing 3 kg of these soils. The experiment consisted of 9 treatments including soil without cadmium and L...
متن کاملIntroduction of Hyperaccumulator Plants with Phytoremediation Potential of a Lead- Zinc Mine in Iran
Contamination of heavy metals represents one of the most pressing threats to water and soil resources as well as human health. Phytoremediation can be potentially used to remediate metalcontaminated sites. A major step towards the development of phytoremediation of heavy metal impacted soils is the discovery of the heavy metal hyperaccumulation in plants. In this study, the several established ...
