Heavy metal pollution is a worldwide problem. Phytoremediation is an effective and low-cost interesting technology. Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) could be a promising candidate for phytoremediation on metal-contaminated soils due to its high biomass, faster growth and moderate takeup and accumulation of heavy metals such as Cu, Cd, Se, Pb and Mn. As a follow-up processing of sugarcane, bagasse...
Soil pollution is a worldwide problem. Both inorganic and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) possess high toxicity and long-term persistence. Biosurfactant based remediation technologies for contaminated soil are of increasing importance recently, and they have been demonstrated to be effective in uptaking both heavy metals such as Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, and organic pollutants like hydrophobic organic...
A pot experiment was conducted in order to investigate the growth of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) under cadmium (Cd) contamination and its uptake and Cd accumulation. The results showed that with increase of Cd concentration, the diameter and burl length of stems, and the biomass of sugarcane decreased significantly. Cd concentration in soil had obviously influenced the ground-breaking time...
