An Overview on Phytoremediation and Related Mechanisms

Today, with increasing population and rapid development of technology the concerns and environmental problems such as pollution of water, air and soil have arisen. Hence, searches to minimize the development impacts on the environment appear to be necessary by researchers and authorities. Among the existing technologies, the pulping plant as an effective way is inexpensive and environmental friendly, which intake and collect pollutants accomplished in removable plant tissue. In this method, pollutants separated from the water and soil matrix by Rhizofiltration, Phytostabilization, Rhizodegradation, Phytovolatilization and Phytoextraction mechanisms. Many plants have been used for filtration of plant by researchers. The inherent ability to adapt with the environment and the climate conditions have a determinative role on the filtration of plant.
