Davis<br>Synthetic dyes are capable of producing the whole color spectrum on account of their structural diversity but this diversity poses challenges in the degradation of dyeing wastes. Laccases and peroxidases from bacterial or fungal sources and parts of plants in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) plus a mediator have been exploited in the bioremediation of synthetic dyes. However, intact plants have not found much favor despite their phytoremediation potential. The goal of this research was t

Abstract:

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) contaminate every compartment of the environment including sediments, water, and air. Although their production has ceased, PCBs continue to contaminate the environment. The properties that make PCBs useful in industrial applications are the same properties that cause them to persistent in the environment. Phytoremediation has been proposed as an in situ treatment option for the remediation of these contaminants. Phytoremediation is the use of green plants to mitigate environmental pollution without excavation or treatment of the contaminated material. Hybrid p

Environmental pollution by metals represents a serious risk to human health and to the environment in both urban, industrial and neighboring areas (Ali et al. 2013). Among natural metalliferous soils, serpentine soils have nutrient scarcity and high concentrations of metals (bioavailable Ni 7-100 mg kg-1; total Ni 500-8000 mg kg-1) (Roccotiello et al., 2015; Turgay et al., 2012).

Phytoremediation is a plant-based remediation process for treating contaminated soils. The overall aim of this thesis was to determine whether phytoremediation could be applied to co-contaminated soils.

The first study involved the joint effect of Cu and pyrene or Cr and B[a]P on the early seedling growth of Lolium perenne. Results suggest that co-contamination showed several types of interactions for seedling growth with different combinations of the pollutants. The second study involved the role B

Abstract:

In two pot experiments using two different crop ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and two flax (Linum usitatissimum) varieties Viola and Elise, ryegrass decreased in the pool of heavy metals compared with bare soil using EDTA as extractant. NH4+ decreased the soil pH, increased EDTA-extractable Zn and increased the Zn uptake. Lime addition increased the pH and depressed Zn uptake. The pool of extractable EDTA was not changed by growing both of the flax varieties. Lime increased EDTA-extractable Cu and Pb significantly, but decreased the Zn, and pH increased in this order NH4+<NO3-<NH4++lime<NO3-+lime.

Abstract:

Food security and eutrophication are two issues proven to have severe impacts on both humanity and the environment. This study suggests improving the local food security by utilizing phosphorus and nitrogen, available in severe eutrophic small lakes, in local food production, thus turning eutrophication from a problem into a resource. The study theoretically experiments the possibility of using eutrophic water in a greenhouse, where hydroponics is used as a cultivation method. The eutrophic water is pumped from the lake into the greenhouse, and then to the hydroponic system, which is expected

Abstract:

Ten strategically placed push-pull wells were installed to determine in-situ degradation rates at a creosote contaminated site and to assess the contribution of hybrid poplar trees to polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) remediation. Well positioning enabled comparison between contaminated and non-contaminated locations, as well as comparisons between locations with and without trees. Comparison of areas with and without trees enabled an improved understanding of the role that the phytoremediation system has on the overall degradation of PAHs at the site. Bromide, a conservative, non-reac
