Estimating the term…
Phytoremediation processes, methods, materials and compositions to remediate soil, sediment and groundwater that is contaminated by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) via phytoextraction which includes the uptake and translocation of contaminants in the contaminated media by plant roots into the above ground portions of the plants. The plants can be selected from sixteen plants as well as other plants and the invention can include managing soil salinity levels of the plants, manipulating amounts of organic matter in the contaminated site media, managing pH levels of the contaminated sites, utilizing double cropping systems, utilizing double-canopy system, and managing harvest methodology of the plants.
A method for increasing the amount of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that a plant will accumulate from PFAS contaminated media, soil, sediment, and groundwater, comprising the steps of:
