The Technology of Phytoremediation of Soils Contaminated with Heavy Metals using Decorative Herbaceous Plants
Abstract: In the article it has been presented the main mechanisms of phytoremediation of contaminated urbanized areas. It has been studied the effectiveness of the technology of phytoremediation of soils contaminated with cobalt, manganese and chromium ions, by some types of ornamental herbaceous plants. It also has been studied the dynamics of changes in the concentration of cobalt, manganese and chromium ions in the soil under metal pressing conditions. Based on the obtained data, it has been identified the types of heavy metal hyper accumulators – Ageratum houstonianum cv. Bule Lagoon, Alyssum maritimum Lam., Brassica napus L., Cosmos sulphureus Cav., Linum usitatissimum L., Atriplex hortense L., which, due to their excellent adaptability to degraded, contaminated with heavy metals, soil have a high level of biomass accumulation, high sorption capacity, which makes it possible to recommend these species for use in the technology of restoration of soils contaminated with heavy metal ions.
Keywords: phytoremediation, urban areas, heavy metals, sorption ability, decorative herbaceous plants.
