FITORREMEDIAÇÃO DE DIFERENTES CONTAMINANTES DO SOLO

Abstract

The use of plants to remove pollutants from the soil is an effective and biotechnological alternative, several groups of plants are promising as agents for phytoremediation of contaminants derived from oil. Among the groups include: grasses, legumes, vegetables, tree species and several other monocotyledons and eudicotyledons. The consequences of contamination from oil derivatives are felt in agriculture, mainly affecting vegetables and the physical and chemical properties of the soil, which includes the state of hydration, texture and organic matter. The aim of this study was to carry out a bibliographic review on the phytoremediation of contaminants derived from oil, as well as to present some plant species effective in the process of soil remediation. Consultations were carried out in specialized magazines and periodicals on the Periódicos Capes portal, using the keywords phytoremediation, oil products, soils, plants. Based on published research, it was found that the phytoremediation of contaminated soils can become even more beneficial to the producer and more sustainable when there is the use of plants that have remedial capacity.
