Phytotechnologies

Phytotechnologies are environmentally friendly methods that use plants to clean up contaminated soils, water, or air. They work by leveraging plants’ natural ability to absorb, degrade, or stabilize pollutants through processes like phytoextraction, phytodegradation, and phytostabilization. This approach is sustainable, cost-effective, and reduces the need for invasive cleanup methods, making it suitable for restoring polluted sites. Phytotechnologies are increasingly used in environmental management to address issues like heavy metals, pesticides, and organic contaminants, promoting ecological health while harnessing the natural power of plants.
