Enhanced Bioavailable Contaminant Stripping (EBCS): metal bioavailability for evaluation of phytoextraction success

Abstract

Phytoextraction may be applied at field scale when the removal of bioavailable metals is the specific target of the technology. Residual metals in soil can be considered substantially inert or to be evaluated by site specific risk analysis.
