The use of metal-accumulating plants to clean the contaminated soil with toxic metals is the most rapidly developing component of phytoremediation as an environmentally friendly technology. Overcoming harsh soil conditions and accelerating the recovery of degraded soils remain a worldwide restoration challenge. This study evaluated the effect of different concentrations of Pb, Zn, Cu and […]
Environmental pollution with heavy metals is a global disaster that is related to human activities. This study was conducted to determine the extent of heavy metals accumulation by plant species in Lia industrial city (Qazvin, Iran) and to investigate the remediative capacity of native plant species grown in the contaminated soils. Soil and industrial wastewater […]
One of the most important methods to investigate heavy metals as pollutants is more likely to use bio-monitors which can be applied as an appropriate index to express the quality of environment. In current study, in order to investigate the effects of dominant plants in the desired region and role of aquatic macrophytes in monitoring […]
