The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of wastewater running through Al-Kharrazie, a seasonal rain water valley in Mosul city which considered now as a sewerage channel discharging their influents into Tig...

Water bodies are routinely exposed to a mixture of contaminants via various anthropogenic exposure mechanisms. Phytoremediation offers a low-cost nature-based solution to remove contaminants from polluted water bodies. T...

The contamination of different substrates with diverse types of substances urgently requires theapplication of processes that allow them to be completely removed or, at least, greatly reduced. Theapplication of phytoreme...

Abstract Valorizing macrophyte biomass as animal feed represents a promising circular economy strategy, yet its safety remains uncertain. To address this, the present study explicitly evaluates the human health risks ass...

The large-scale use of the herbicide glyphosate leads to growing ecotoxicological and human health concerns. Microbe-assisted phytoremediation arises as a good option to remove, contain, or degrade glyphosate from soils ...

In recent times, the development of innovative processes permits the application of a circular economy approach to the management and exploitation of mining waste with respect to human health and environment, such that s...

Phytoremediation of areas polluted by heavy metals and toxic metalloids is challenging, particularly in arid regions where limited water availability compromises plant establishment. This study shows that several Atriple...

Abstract Integrating environmental science with STEM education can strengthen scientific literacy and technological fluency. This review synthesizes literature on phytoremediation-based instruction and proposes an interd...

Indoor air quality is a crucial factor that directly impacts worker safety and health (K3), where exposure to hazardous pollutants such as formaldehyde can trigger irritation, respiratory disorders, and long-term health ...

Brownfield sites, often characterized by deteriorated marginal land and contamination resulting from industrial or agricultural activities, pose significant environmental and land-use challenges. Miscanthus × giganteus ...

In the last years, hairy root (HR) cultures are gaining attention in the biotechnology industry. This particular plant cell culture derives from explants infected with Agrobacterium rhizogenes. They constitute a relative...

Heavy metal soil contamination is one of the most serious environmental problems, considering both their persistence and progressive accumulation which makes possible the transference to other systems, and could potentia...

Phytochelatins (PCs) and monothiols and their relation with trace element concentrations were studied in three plant species from two Portuguese salt marshes. Belowground tissues showed always higher element concentratio...

Abstract This study evaluated the viability of organic farming in the Upper (UGR), Middle (MGR), and Lower Ganga Regions (LGR) by analysing soil health, nutrient availability, and heavy metal contamination. Using standar...

ABSTRACT Landoltia punctata is a species of duckweed originating from India, but has been recorded in all continents, except Antarctica. It is of economic interest, being used in phytoremediation, but mainly due to its h...

Constructed wetlands are systems based on nature, in which macrophytes are themain biological community. According to the diversity of wastewaters that thesesystems can treat, its use has expanded all over the world. Tre...
