Phytoremediation is a promising technology for the clean-up of petroleum-contaminated soils, especially in the tropics where climatic conditions favour plant growth and microbial activity and where… Expand
Phytoremediation in the Tropics—The Effect of Crude Oil on the Growth of Tropical Plants
- N. Merkl, R. Schultze-Kraft, C. Infante
- Environmental Science
- 1 July 2004
ABSTRACT Phytoremediation is a nondestructive, cost-effective in-situ technology to clean up contaminated soils. In the case of contamination with petroleum hydrocarbons, plants enhance microbial… Expand
