Phytoremediation: Low input-based ecological approach for sustainable environment

Abstract In today's fast-paced society, environmental breakdown is an ecumenical concern. This dilemma tangled up with the unaccountable anthropogenic activities that are causing significant public health issues. Because of rapid pace development, urban soil and water pollution progressively acting as a sink for variety contaminants, including heavy metals, pesticides, petroleum waste, radioactive moieties, etc. Phytoremediation low-cost, high-efficient method extracting or removing pollutants from environment. Water transpired by green plants in order to move nutrients site photosynthesis. During this process, also taken sequestered, digested, drained out. technique has many benefits over conventional approaches which aesthetically pleasing long-term applicability. could be viable option decontaminate metal-polluted sites, particularly when biomass produced during process economically utilized form bioenergy. Depending on used nature contaminant involved, phytoremediating areas where metals other inorganic compounds exist may utilize one several techniques discussed present study phytodegradation, phytoextraction, phytostimulation, phytostabilization, phytofiltration, phytovolatalization, emerging technology employs natural, biological, chemical, physical processes remove, detoxify, immobilize contaminants growth matrix. approach hence innovative tool great potential water. promising ensuring sustainability future generations reducing pollution.
