Toxic substances have a deleterious effect on biological systems if accrued in ecosystems
beyond their acceptable limit. A natural ecosystem can become contaminated due to the …

Phytoextraction, as the most commonly used technique in phytoremediation, involves the
utilization of plant-hyperaccumulators for the absorption pollutants (primarily heavy metals) …

Previous studies on phytoremediation reported contradictory or inconsistent results on the
Cd, Pb, and Zn accumulation in and among plant parts of willow (Salix) species. We …

Soil pollution by metal (loid) s is one of the most significant problems in Europe. To
remediate and potentially rehabilitate these contaminated sites, phytoremediation …

Mining activities lead to widespread environmental pollution of terrestrial ecosystems due to
the presence of metal (loid) s in tailings. These contaminated areas present a health risk and …

Phytotechnologies have been used worldwide to remediate and restore damaged
ecosystems, especially those caused by industrial byproducts leaching into rivers and other …

Purpose Anthropic activities induce severe metal (loid) s contamination of many sites, which
is a threat to the environment and to public health. Indeed metal (loid) s cannot be degraded …

Willow species have been suggested for use in the remediation of contaminated soils due to
their high biomass production, fast growth, and high accumulation of heavy metals. The …

The aim of this study was to assess the spatial distribution of arsenic and heavy metals (Cd,
Cr, Cu Hg, Ni, Pb and Zn) in a riparian area influenced by periodical flooding along a …

The rise of different heavy metals in different ecosystems is a cause of concern as it may
deteriorate the quality of these ecosystems. The increase in these metals may reach to …
