Research Materials on Phytoremediation

Hey E.J. Crew!

I found a short article on JSTOR that presents the idea of phytoremediation. Even though not in great detail, it gives a general sense of what the method is, and how it applies to eradication of lead contamination from the soil. The article is from 1996 - so not updated but particularly for the non-scientists, it explains the main idea in a rather easy manner. It treats phytoremediation as an innovation - quite interesting from the historical point of view on the development of technology and methods used to fight lead contamination. Also, what's interesting is its objective standpoint as it lists both pluses and minuses of this method.

Here is the link:
