چکیده

there are many remediating methods for the polluted soils but only phytoremediation is a cost effective, environmental friendly, aesthetically pleasing approach that is most suitable for many countries. the purpose of this study was to investigate the potential of native plants for phytoremediation of contaminated soils with lead, zinc, cadmium and nickel in the rangelands around national lead & zinc factory, zanjan, iran. sampling was done at 11 sites on may, 2014 and plant samples were collected from 14 native plant species. three soil samples were taken at each site. soil samples were taken from the rooting zone. extraction of pb, zn, cd and ni from plants was done by acid digestion. plant samples were digested in the di-acid mixture (3:1) of nitric acid (hno3) and perchloric acid (hclo) and soil samples were digested with 4m hno3 acid. metals of pb, zn, cd and ni were extracted from plant and soil samples were determined using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy “icp-oes”. in general, the results showed that no hyperaccumulators of pb and zn were identified in the area. all plants were classified as low lead accumulators, excluder and moderate accumulators, low zinc accumulators or excluders; though pb and zn concentrations in the plants were higher than standard range. standard range of lead and zinc in rangeland plants is 0.2-20 and 1-400 mgkg-1, respectively whereas the species of brassica juncea and scariola orientalis were classified as cd hyperaccumulators and scariola orientalis and echium amoenum were classified as ni hyperaccumulators. the normal value of cd and ni in these plants were 0.1-2.4 and 0.02-5.0 mgkg-1, respectively. thus, these native plants had an implication of carrying out phytoremediation in the rangeland soils around national iranian lead & zinc factory, zanjan.

Introduction 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 ...

Ability of some crops for phytoremediation of nickel and zinc heavy metals from contaminated soils

The present study was aimed at comparing the ability of three crop plants for phytoremediation of zinc (Zn) and nickel (Zn) from soils. A factorial (3×2×3) experiment based on RCBD was used to compare the treatments, and was repeated three times. The first factor was crop type (wheat, clover and rapeseed), the second factor was heavy metal types (zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni)) and the third factor ...

Phytoremediation of Lead, Cadmium and Chromium Contaminated Soils using Selected Weed Plants

Human activities like mining, transport, agriculture, industrial waste disposal and military actions release inorganic pollutants in high concentrations that are toxic to natural ecosystems. Heavy metal pollution causes potential ecological risk. Heavy metals like Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb) and Chromium (Cr) when present in high concentrations in soil exert potential toxic effects on overall growt...

The experiment was carried out in 1999-2001 at the University of Agriculture in Krakow (Poland) to study the capacity of nine crops (red beet, field pumpkin, chicory, bean, barley, white cabbage, maize, alfalfa, and parsnip) to remove cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) from different soil horizons (0-20, 20-40, 40-60 cm). The content of exchangeable Cd, Pb, and Zn decreased along with the de...
