Phytomanagement of Polluted Sites: Market Opportunities in Sustainable Phytoremediation

Phytomanagement of Polluted Sites: Market Opportunities in Sustainable Phytoremediation brings together recent and established knowledge on different aspects of phytoremediation, providing this information in a single source that offers a cutting-edge synthesis of scientific and experiential knowledge on industrially contaminated site restoration that is useful for both practitioners and scientists. The book gives interested groups, both non-profit and for-profit, methods to manage dumpsites and other contaminated areas, including tactics on how to mitigate costs and even profit from ecological restoration.

Covers successful examples of turning industrially contaminated sites into ecologically healthy revenue producersPresents examples of the applications of phytomanagement of dumpsites from around the globeProvides the tools the reader needs to select specific plant species according to site specificity
