Abstract
Phytoremediation, a green remediation, presents an eco-friendly approach to combatting environmental pollution by harnessing the natural detoxification properties of plants. This method utilises various plant species to absorb, accumulate, and transform pollutants, offering a subtle yet effective means of cleansing contaminated soil and water. This highlights the significance of phytoremediation in addressing heavy metal pollution, which poses enduring threats to ecological systems and human health. It explores the diverse applications of phytoremediation, including its effectiveness against heavy metals, radioactive substances, and organic pollutants. The review also discusses the challenges and prospects of phytoremediation, emphasising the importance of identifying suitable plant species and enhancing their resistance to metallic toxins. Overall, phytoremediation emerges as a promising strategy for sustainable environmental remediation, offering long-term benefits for both ecosystems and human well-being.
