Every day that pollution passes, it becomes a serious problem for our planet, due to the large amount of solid and liquid pollutants from industrial activity. Faced with this constant threat, phytoremediation arises as a real alternative to reverse the damage caused by pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The word Phytoremediation\nIt is born from the Greek words \"Phyto\", which means plant and from the Latin\n\"Remedium\", which refers to regaining balance, and is defined as a\ntechnological system based on the biochemical capacity of some types of plants to\nabsorb and withdraw substances\nenvironmental pollutants\nenvironment (soils, water,\nair In this way, plants are able to recover, stabilize and \/ or decompose metals, radioactive materials, explosives, pesticides\nand hydrocarbons that may be present in the soil or sediments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This new technological system is presented as a\nmore advantageous alternative to other physicochemical techniques used to\nover time, since it is a sustainable, low-cost technique, it does not require consumption of\nenergy, allows to recycle resources, and is\nmuch less harmful to the environment than other methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
