| Abstract |
The term phytoremediation was introduced in 1991 and is understood to mean that plants can be used to address a variety of contaminants, such as organic chemicals, inorganics and heavy metals. Phytoremediation technologies are sun-driven and are relatively inexpensive. There is wide spread interest in using this technology to treat contamination in soils and groundwater. Researchers in several countries are working to advance their understanding of the interactions that occur between contaminants, plant exudates, microorganism and a variety of other abiotic and biotic processes. Other research focuses on gaining a better understanding of the agronomics, silvaculture and economic factors that must be considered when choosing which plants to use in a phytoremediation system. The conference consisted of a number of platform presentations by the speaker panels and audience discussion. |
