Performance of Three Tropical Plant Species as Phytoremediators for Selected Heavy Metals in Sewage Sludge
Heavy metal contamination is one of the most pressing threats to water and soil resources as well as human health. Unlike organic compounds, metals cannot be degraded. Most of the conventional remedial technologies are expensive and also cause negative impact on the environment. Phytoremediation is...
