Evaluation of the phytoremediation potential of Arundo donax L. for nickel-contaminated soil

Abstract: This study investigates the accumulation and distribution of nickel in Arundo donax L. parts to assess the potential use of this plant in phytoremediation of Ni-contaminated soils. The effect of ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) and nutrient solution containing NPK on the plant was proped. A 35-day pot experiment was performed in the laboratory and the pots were irrigated with Ni-contaminated solution combined or not with EDTA and NPK. The growth of plants was evaluated at the end of the experiment. Th… Show more

“…This causes the soil to be dominated by Ni ions so that the availability of Ni ions in the root absorption complex increases. The reduced amount of Ni metal uptake due to the addition of fertilizers also occurred in Arundo donax L. plant supplied with NPK fertilizer (Atma et al, 2017). The value of BCF for Ni of Bajo starfruit achieved in this study was higher compared to previous studies conducted by Netty et al (2013) of 0.01.…”

“…Total nitrogen was determined by digestion method as described by Johan Kjeldahl in 1883. The Ni present in the oven-dried soil sample was extracted by acid digestion followed by quantification with the help of an atomic absorption spectrophotometer [21].…”

“…Providing evidence of multiple lineages within A. donax and identifying its putative ancestral area, our findings may be helpful to researchers working on both invasiveness management (Canavan et al, ; Puértolas, Damásio, Barata, Soares, & Prat, ), phytoremediation programmes and industrial exploitation of the species (Atma, Larouci, Meddah, Benabdeli, & Sonnet, ; Corno et al, ; Lewandowski et al, ; Mirza et al, ).…”
