Experts engaged in the project NETMIN test the efficiency of cultivating plants for depolluting soil in mining areas from Banat region. Two bioindicator plants Hordeum vulgare L-Hordeum hexastihon L (barley) and Silphium perfoliatum (cup plant) are selected for this study. The barley is already tested for the third round, while the cup plant is prepared […]
Mining exploitation causes, as results of the technological processes, mining ponds, waste tailings and the surfacing of the waters that cross existing mine galleries. Heavy metals are present in all environmental factors of such areas and significantly affect local ecosystems and human health. To neutralize the negative impact of mining, through NETMIN project, bio remedial […]
