Lavandula angustifolia and microbial bioaugmentation synergistically reshape rhizosphere microbiome and enhance heavy metals removal in historically contaminated soils

Cristina Cavone, Domenico De Paola, Gino Naclerio, Antonio Bucci et autres

Heavy metal contamination poses a serious threat to soil ecosystems and requires sustainable remediation approaches capable of restoring both chemical quality and microbial functionality. This study evaluates the effectiveness of plant-assisted bioremediation (Lavandula angustifolia) and bioaugmentation with a selected bacterial consortium of …

Effects of micro and nanoplastics on plant-assisted bioremediation for contaminated soil recovery: A review

Ilaria Savino, Claudia Campanale, Paola Grenni, Cristina Cavone et autres

Plant-assisted bioremediation (PABR) is a phytoremediation strategy for recovering contaminated soils, based on the synergistic interaction between plants and microorganisms in the rhizosphere. This sustainable approach enables the immobilization or extraction of heavy metal contaminants and degradation of organic pollutants, thereby helping …

Microbial fuel cells with polychlorinated biphenyls contaminated soil as electrolyte: energy performance and decontamination potential in presence of compost

Gabriele Guglielmo Gagliardi, Domenico Borello, Carlotta Cosentini, Anna Barra Caracciolo et autres

The electrical performance of Terrestrial Microbial Fuel Cells (TMFCs) with soil as the electrolyte was tested with two concentrations (150 or 250 ng/g soil) of PCBs (Polychlorinated biphenlys) and compost (3 % w/w) in an experiment lasting 60–80 days. Energy output levels …

Plant microbial fuel cells for recovering contaminated environments

Valeria Ancona, Cristina Cavone, Paola Grenni, Gabriele Guglielmo Gagliardi et autres

Plant Microbial Fuel Cells (PMFCs) are bioelectrochemical systems able to convert solar energy into bioelectricity with the support of rhizosphere microbial populations. The simultaneous bioelectricity and biomass production makes PMFCs an interesting nature-based solution for promoting not only energy production, but also …
