Phytoremediation of Heavy Metals from Industrial Effluent by Aquatic Plants

Water and land are precious natural resources for the agricultural activities, which are prerequisite for any civilization. Rapid industrialization and urbanization exploit and severely pollute these resources. The organic and inorganic pollutants generate an unfavourable environment for the survival of aquatic flora and fauna by affecting the aquatic ecosystems. The increasing urbanization, industrial revolution, advancement of technologies, etc. are the reasons for increased pollution level. Smoke and dust particles pollute the air, solid waste pollutes the land, and in the same way industrial discharge, municipal sewage, and domestic wastewater pollute the water resources (streams, lakes,...

Phyto and Rhizo Remediation

The increasing human population and the associated activities have negatively influenced the ecosystems and life on earth. The continuous addition of agrochemicals, heavy metals and industrial wastes/ effluents in the ecosystems have caused great harm, including loss of productivity, biodiversity, climate change and diseases in plants, animals and humans, resulting in increased marginal lands and endangered sustainability of life on earth. Hence, there is an urgent need to reverse the impact of dangerous pollutants through a holistic, sustainable and biotic approach. Bioremediation involves the utilization of biological systems, mainly plants (phytoremediation) or microorganisms or both in c...
