TITLE：Phytoextraction and its enhancement remediation of cadmium contaminated soil

ABSTRACT：

Cadmium is easily absorbed and enriched by crops in production activities, which not only seriously affects the yield and quality of crops, but also directly threatens human health. Phytoextraction can continuously remove heavy metals from soil and reduce its content, which has a broad application in the field of heavy metal-contaminated soil remediation. This report will introduce the mechanism of cadmium extraction by hyperaccumulator, the technology of enhancing phytoextraction with microorganisms and nanomaterials, and the simultaneous production and remediation of moderately cadmium- contaminated soil.
