- EXPERIMENTAL PHYTO- & BIO-REMEDIATION -


The experimental studies are focused on the development of site-specific planning and validation methods of phytormediation systems (es. rhizodegradation of organic pollutants, green barriers for aerodispersed pollutants).

- One of the aims of this studies is to gain knowledge about pollutants degradation (PAH - Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) in polluted soils, using several plant species:


- The experiments are developed in distinct experimental environments: in situgreenhouse and laboratory:





- Besides short chronic toxicity tests are carried out on seeds in laboratory (Method UNICHIM n. 1651 Edition 2003):
