"Detoxifying Soil: Hyperaccumulating Plants for Metals" by Jeelani Begum G is an informative guidebook for anyone interested in the remediation of contaminated soil. Heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and cadmium are toxic and can have detrimental effects on human health and the environment. The author introduces a natural and sustainable solution for the removal of these metals from contaminated soil using selected hyperaccumulator plants. Hyperaccumulator plants have the unique ability to absorb large amounts of heavy metals from the soil without showing any adverse effects. The book describes the different types of hyperaccumulator plants and their specific characteristics that make them ideal for remediation purposes. The author also covers the various mechanisms involved in the process of hyperaccumulation, including phytoextraction, phytostabilization, and rhizofiltration. In addition to providing a comprehensive overview of hyperaccumulator plants and their uses, the book also covers practical aspects such as the selection of appropriate plants for specific types of contaminated soil, cultivation techniques, and maintenance practices. The author also discusses the potential applications of hyperaccumulator plants beyond soil remediation, such as in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries. Overall, "Detoxifying Soil: Hyperaccumulating Plants for Metals" is an essential resource for researchers, students, and professionals working in environmental science, agriculture, and related fields. The book provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of hyperaccumulator plants in the detoxification of contaminated soil, paving the way for a sustainable and eco-friendly approach to remediation.
