The increase in waste production and the increase in agricultural activities, rapid industrialization, mining, contaminated irrigation water and industrial effluents contribute to the pollution of water sources due to the accumulation of heavy metals. As humans use resources contaminated with these metals to produce food, it eventually accumulates in the food chain. Therefore, decontamination of these sources and avoidance of their contamination is required to prevent adverse health effects.
Phytoremediation can be used as an effective economic method, environmentally friendly and related to the use of metal accumulating plants as an alternative method for cleaning heavy metals.
