Phytoscreening of BTEX and chlorinated solvents by tree coring
Webb5 maj 2015 · Phytoscreening has been demonstrated at a variety of sites over the past 15 years as a low-impact, sustainable tool in delineation of shallow groundwater contaminated with chlorinated solvents. Collection of tree cores is rapid and straightforward, but low concentrations in tree tissues requires sensitive analytics. WebbPerchlorate presents an environmental health risk due to its widespread use, high solubility in water, and ability to interfere with thyroid function in humans. Delineating plumes of mobile contaminants, such as perchlorate, is difficult and time consuming, particularly in remote or forested areas. Phytoscre aline rangel diniz
