MODERN SCIENTIFIC APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF PHYTOREMEDIATION METHODS OF SOILS CONTAMINATED WITH HEAVY METALS

Abstract

Today, phytoremediation is considered one of the most environmentally friendly and cheap methods of soil restoration compared to physicochemical and technical methods, because the basis of phytoremediation processes is the ability of plants to accumulate, degrade, stabilize, transform and evaporate pollutants from a large number of natural matrices, in particular soil and water. Considering that already contaminated soils in Ukraine are further contaminated with fuel and lubricants, explosives, heavy metals and other hazardous substances due to military aggression, resulting in a deterioration of the state of agrobiocenoses and the ecosystem of the affected territory, the issue of modern scientific approaches to studying methods of phytoremediation of heavy metals in soils is becoming more relevant.
