Description for Introduction to Phytoremediation of Contaminated Groundwater
Paperback. Provides the comprehensive view of the interaction between plants and groundwater necessary to understand and critically evaluate the design, implementation, and monitoring of phytoremediation at sites characterized by contaminated groundwater. Num Pages: 436 pages, 26 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PST; PSTS; RBK; RNP; TQSW. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 279 x 210 x 23. Weight in Grams: 1077.
This book provides the reader with the comprehensive view necessary to understand and critically evaluate the design, implementation, and monitoring of phytoremediation at sites characterized by contaminated groundwater. Part I presents the historical foundation of the interaction between plants and groundwater, introduces fundamental groundwater concepts for plant physiologists, and introduces basic plant physiology for hydrogeologists. Part II presents information on how to assess, design, implement, and monitor phytoremediation projects for hydrologic control. Part III presents how plants take up and detoxify a wide range of organic xenobiotics in contaminated groundwater systems, and provides various approaches on how this can be ... Read more
