Dual-metal phytoremediation of cadmium and nickel by wetland macrophytes: Comparative evaluation, metal uptake dynamics, and process optimization.

Escalating heavy metal contamination of aquatic environments presents a significant threat to ecosystem integrity and public health, yet existing treatment technologies remain economically and technically inadequate for the efficient removal of low-concentration metal pollutants from wastewater. This study evaluated th...

Phytoremediation of untreated wastewater using wetland plants: implications for water quality improvement and sustainable lettuce production.

Wastewater reuse in agriculture enhances nutrient availability, potentially increasing the risk of heavy-metal contamination. Phytoremediation using wetland plants such as Phragmites australis and Typha latifolia provides a sustainable approach to treating contaminated water. This study evaluated the effects of irrigat...

Screening native plants for the sustainable phytoremediation of heavy metals in industrial areas of Bangladesh

Environmental pollution by heavy metals is a major concern in developing countries due to rapid and unplanned industrialization and urbanization, resulting in the contamination of soil, water, and vegetation. This poses high risks to human health and environmental systems; hence, their protection is very urgent. Here,...
