Phytoremediation: A Promising Technology for sustainable Environmental Management - A Review

The environment is increasingly polluted by contaminants produced by anthropogenic activities such as mining, fossil fuels burning, agro chemicals, and fertilizers. These pollutants have negative impacts on the biosphere and human health. The need to clean our environment is crucial for several reasons. Phytoremediation is a novel technology that offers prominent advantages over conventional methods used for environmental clean-up. Phytoremediation is a new approach in which plants used to remove or degrade pollutants. In recent years phytoremediation has emerged as a promising technology for sustainable environmental remediation. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of phytoremediation, highlighting its mechanisms, and potential for mitigating environmental pollution
