Phytoremediation is a promising and cost-effective strategy to manage heavy metal polluted
sites. In this experiment, we compared simultaneously phytoextraction and phytostabilisation …

Soil phytoextraction is based on the ability of plants to extract contaminants from the soil. For
less bioavailable metals, such as Pb, a chelator is added to the soil to mobilize the metal …

The increase in heavy metal terrestrial ecosystems' contamination through anthropogenic
activities is a widespread and serious global problem due to their various environmental and …

Enhanced phytoextraction of heavy metals using chelating agents and agricultural crops is
widely discussed as a remediation technique for agricultural soils contaminated with low …

For heavy metal–contaminated agricultural land, low‐cost, plant‐based phytoextraction
measures can be a key element for a new land management strategy. When agents are …

In general, hyperaccumulators are low biomass, slow-growing plants. High biomass non-
hyperaccumulator plants by themselves are not a valid alternative for phytoextraction as they …

The contamination of soils by trace metals has been an unfortunate sideeffect of
industrialization. Some of these contaminants can interfere with vulnerable enduses of soil …

Synthetic chelates such as ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) have been shown to
enhance phytoextraction of some heavy metals from contaminated soil. In a soil column …

Phytoextraction, the use of plants to extract heavy metals from contaminated soils, could be
an interesting alternative to conventional remediation technologies. However, calcareous …

Enhanced phytoextraction using EDTA for the remediation of an agricultural soil
contaminated with less mobile risk elements Cd and Pb originating from smelting activities in …
