    Just did a book search using phytoremediation. Lots of books (including used) in print on phytoremediation.

      We used to get (infrequently, as an industrial waste) toxins in our influent, which would settle out as sludge, and then could be sent to specialized remediation site. Also used to get lots of lead in waste lumber collection..

      Water tables, aquifers can be very active and cyclical, seasonal, tidally effected etc.

    Lady, I love you and want to marry you for your very simple explanation of hyperspectral imaging. It made it fit into my underdeveloped brain. Thanks so much!!!

    Is there any website or something where I can find information of sites where the phytoremediation has been used? I mean, like how big was the contaminated area, the plants that were used, % of contamination eliminied... I'm working on a very long, 1 year work about phytoremediation, so that information would be a good prove about the efficacy of phytoremediation. Also, any book about it really interesting? With a lot of information and that.
    Anyway, thanks!
