Phytostabilization of Soils Contaminated with Cadmium by Peristrophe bivalvis.

This study aims to investigate the ability of cadmium (Cd) accumulation in Peristrophe bivalvis cultivated in a pot experiment for 60 days at various Cd amounts of 0, 20, 60, and 100 mg/kg. Throughout the experiment, no toxic effects were observed, and the presence of Cd did not inhibit the growth of the plants. A linear correlation coefficient (P < 0.

Effects of Drought Stress on the Growth and Heavy Metal Accumulation by Chromolaena odorata Grown in Hydroponic Media.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of drought stress on cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) accumulation in Chromolaena odorata grown in an artificially contaminated nutrient solution for 15 days. Polyethylene glycol (5% PEG) was used as a drought stressor. The presence of PEG did not affect the chlorophyll content and photochemical efficiency, while drought stress induced by PEG caused a decrease in water content in the plant tissues.

Phytoremediation potential of , , and grown in cadmium-polluted soils.

To assess the cadmium (Cd) phytoremediation of three native plant species from Padeang zinc (Zn) mine area (, , and ), a hydroponic experiment was performed in nutrient solutions containing various concentrations of Cd (0, 5, 10, 20, and 50 mg L) for 15 days. In the hydroponic experiment, showed significantly higher total Cd content than those grown in 50 mg L Cd solutions. Only and were chosen for the pot experiment.

Bacteria-assisted phytoremediation of fuel oil and lead co-contaminated soil in the salt-stressed condition by and .

Bioremediation of lead-petroleum co-contaminated soil under salt-stressed condition has been investigated. In this study, the co-contaminated soil (780 mg kg Pb and 27,000 mg kg TPHs) under the high salinity (EC 7.79 ds m) was used as a model soil to be remediated by inoculated with .

Phytoremediation of fuel oil and lead co-contaminated soil by Chromolaena odorata in association with Micrococcus luteus.

Phytoremediation is widely promoted as a cost-effective technology for treating heavy metal and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) co-contaminated soil. This study investigated the concurrent removal of TPHs and Pb in co-contaminated soil (27,000 mg kg(-1) TPHs, 780 mg kg(-1) Pb) by growing Siam weed (Chromolaena odorata) in a pot experiment for 90 days. There were four treatments: co-contaminated soil; co-contaminated soil with C.
