Environmental Shots-2

▪️Phytotransformation or phytodegradation refers to the uptake of organic contaminants from soil, sediments, or water and their transformation to more stable, less toxic, less mobile form.
▪️Phytostabilization is a technique in which plants reduce the mobility and migration of contaminated soil.
▪️Leachable constituents are adsorbed and bound into the plant structure so that they form unstable mass of plant from which the contaminants will not re-enter the environment.
