Abstract:
Phytoremediation is one of the most recent developments in biotechnology valid in remediating contaminated soil ecosystems. The concept of successive bioremediation protocols had been recently highlighted that involves furnishing the contaminated soil with certain remediative amendments followed by biofortification with varied micro-organisms. The released PTE and decomposed organic toxins are thereafter removed from the soil using phytoremediation techniques. The current article covers phytoextraction, phytodegradation, phytostimulation, phytostabilization, phytovolatilization, phytorestoration, phytotransformation and phytoremediation of multi-inorganic contaminants.
