description The remediation technology for contaminated soils, which represents an economic liability as well as a technical challenge. Recent interest in metal hyper accumulation has been stimulated by the potential for phytoremediation of polluted soils, using metal accumulating plants to clean soils of contaminants. The use of plants to clean up a site is an inexpensive and environmental technique that can be adapted by the people. Phytoremediation technology is formed by 8 systems that are phytoextraction, phytostabilization, phytodegradation, rhizodegradation, rhizofiltration, phytovolatilization, hydraulic control, buffer strips (riparian buffer strips) and vegetative cover systems. This study focused on the phytoremediation that use of plants to remove pollutants from the soil and water and to render them harmless.
